Nube

Labrador Retriever

Female, 4 yrs 6 mos

Nanaimo, BC

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Good with dogs, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Meet Nube who is looking for a home. Nube is a 4.5 year old mixed breed, full grown at a perfect 45 lbs. We think she may be a lab cross, with a gorgeous white coat, and beautiful markings to round out her unique look. She shares space with other dogs and enjoys playtime in the yard with them. Nube is friendly and affectionate with shelter visitors with a lovely disposition. She is medium energy - with enough energy to keep up, but would also be grateful for some chill time to make up for missed cuddles. Mostly she would love her very own family. Nube hasn't been tested extensively with cats. She sees them without reacting, but for now, we will seek a home without cats to be sure. While Nube is lovely with people, she's not been specifically tested with kids. Nube is spayed and vaccinated. She is missing some of her front teeth - likely a result of escaping shackles or surviving on street scraps. If you think you might be a fit for this beauty, as her chance at a forever home, or as a foster along the way, she'd love to hear from you at pvcaadoptions@gmail.com

Rudy

Border Collie Great Pyrenees

Male, Young

Nanaimo, BC

Size

(when grown) -

Details

Not good with kids, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Rootin' tootin' Rudy came into this world with big paws, bigger feelings, and a whole lot of yeehaw energy. At 7 months old, this Border Collie / Aussie / Great Pyrenees mix is still learning how to steer his growing body and his even-growing-er enthusiasm. The world can feel loud and busy sometimes, but Rudy is taking it in stride and trying his very best.He's a bit of a bucking bronco when excitement hits and is working hard on four on the floor, polite doorways, and general good-mannered cowboy behavior. Rudy forgets how big he is more often than not, but his intentions are pure. Toys are his prized possessions, treats are powerful motivation, and being told he's a good boy might be his favorite thing of all.Rudy prefers slow introductions to dog friends and would love to be the star of the show in his home. Because of his size, sensitivity, and enthusiasm, he's looking for a no-kids home with someone patient, consistent, and ready to guide a young working-breed mix through his big puppy phase.With structure, praise, and a sense of humor, Rootin' Tootin' Rudy is going to grow into a loyal, affectionate partner - the kind of dog who tries hard, loves harder, and just needs someone to ride alongside him while he figures it all out. 🤠🐾 Primary Color: Tri Color Secondary Color: White Weight: 33.1 Age: 0yrs 8mths 0wks

Patricio

Labrador Retriever Shepherd (Unknown Type)

Male, 4 yrs

Nanaimo, BC

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Patricio is the absolute perfect love bug. He has a sweet gentle disposition – he is lovely with everyone he meets. He has a joyful spring in his step when he sees people, and he also happily finds joy in any toy that might come his way, finding his own happiness in the little things. He likes to gather shelter toys and put them near his bed, revelling in the joy of having anything good come his way. Patricio is about 4 years old. He is good with dogs and cats, and walks nicely on leash (including past cows, chickens, bikes and trucks). Patricio is a lovely and compact 38 lbs. His quiet happiness also means he’s not much of a barker – rather he watches the world happily waiting for his next chance at affection. He likes to crawl into your soul for cuddles. Patricio is a distemper survivor who has a slight tic in his jaw as a result. This brave boy not only survived distemper, but hasn’t let that impact his happiness. Whoever gets this little man is very lucky. Patricio is medium energy – happy to accompany you whenever and wherever. Check him out here: https://www.instagram.com/pvcaanimalrescue/reel/DRTWFowkZ0P/ If you think you might be his chance at a family, or foster along the way, we’d love to hear from you at pvcaadoptions@gmail.com.

Pimienta

Pointer Terrier (Unknown Type, Medium)

Female, 6 mos

Nanaimo, BC

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Good with dogs, Good with cats, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Born June 2025, Pimienta and her siblings were puppies on the street far too young. Thankfully a kind stranger took them in for a few weeks while they waited for space to open up at the SPCA PV sanctuary in Puerto Vallarta. While we’re so happy she’s off the street, she belongs in a home with a family who loves her. We think she’ll grow to about 30 lbs full grown. She is a mixed breed which may include terrier and pointer. She has a beautiful coat with gorgeous markings, highlighting her unique special breed of Mexican princess. Pimienta passed her cat test – she was curious and cautious. As Pimienta has spent her early life in sanctuary she prefers walking with other dogs and might like a dog companion to show her the way. If you think you might be a good fit for this gorgeous girl, either as her happy ever after, or as a foster along the way, we’d love to hear from you at pvcaadoptions@gmail.com.

Loch

Pit Bull Terrier

Male, Young

Nanaimo, BC

Size

(when grown) -

Details

Needs special attention, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Meet Loch, the "LOCHness monster of LOVE!" He is a stunning brindle boy with a heart as big as his beautiful coat. Social, friendly, and always happy to make new canine friends, he brings an easygoing charm wherever he goes.This sweet guy has been through TWO TPLO knee surgeries, and while he's handled them with resilience, his body hasn't bounced back the way we hoped. He'll need ongoing care and future support for his knees, including removal of the hardware, so he's looking for a dedicated family ready to love him through it all ♥Loch's personality is a delightful mix of cuddly companion and goofy mischief-maker. He adores snuggling up with his people, but don't let that soft side fool you-he is a certified destroyer of plush toys and will absolutely swallow them if given the chance. (Hard toys only for this boy!) Loch gets along wonderfully with other dogs and has lived with kids and cats (though he does enjoy a good game of "chase the kitty" if allowed!).Currently in foster care, Loch could move into a foster-to-adopt home if his new person or family is ready to help him finish his recovery.📍 Please note: Loch is not viewable at the shelter. If you'd like to meet him, please fill out an adoption application. Only approved applicants will be contacted for a meet and greet. Primary Color: Brown Brindle Secondary Color: Black Weight: 38.5 Age: 1yrs 7mths 1wks

If you've ever wanted a dog who celebrates life like it's a full‑time job, Boss Man is your guy.He's still learning his basic manners and finds it nearly impossible to stay still - there's just too much excitement in the world. With patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement training, he'll blossom into the well‑mannered companion he's meant to be. Right now, he's also working on mastering his potty habits and will benefit from a routine.Boss Man loves going outside for adventures. Whether it's a walk, a hike, or simply exploring the yard, he's happiest when he's moving and discovering new things. Because of his strength and high energy, he's best suited for a home without other animals or small children. He thrives when he can be the center of attention and have a calm, predictable environment to learn in. Boss Man cannot have chicken, so his future family will need to keep his meals chicken‑free.He is not yet neutered, but he's on track for that next step in his journey.If you're looking for a spirited, lovable pup who will reward your guidance with loyalty and joy, Boss Man is ready to wiggle his way into your life.
