Daisy

Boxer Bullmastiff

Female, Young

Duncan, BC

Size

(when grown) -

Details

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Daisy, an adorable Bullmastiff mix, is the smallest of her litter, weighing just 23kg, while her big brother is double her size!! Daisy grew up in an environment with limited human interaction, resulting in her being more comfortable with dogs and somewhat aloof towards them. She would likely benefit from a confident canine friend in the home. This under-socialization with people has led to some "stranger danger," making her best suited for an experienced dog owner who practices positive reinforcement training and is willing to work with an Animal Kind trainer.Once Daisy overcomes her initial fears, her sweet personality truly blossoms. She loves neck and ear scratches, enjoys cuddling in your lap, and giving gentle kisses. Her most endearing feature is her little snaggle-tooth, which always brings a smile to our faces. Daisy has a fondness for stuffies and loves chasing balls, and playing exuberantly with her big brother. With a slow introduction, she would likely do well with new dog friends. Daisy enjoys her walks and prances like a little deer, taking in all the new sights.Daisy has shown some stress and anxiety in the shelter, but it is believed that these issues will significantly diminish with a consistent routine in a stable home. Loud noises and sudden movements can startle her, so she is looking for an adult-only home.Prospective adopters must submit and have their applications approved before meeting Daisy, as her nervousness around new people requires controlled introductions. Walk-in meet and greets without an approved application will not be accommodated.If you have the experience and patience to help Daisy overcome her challenges, you will be rewarded with all the love she has to offer once she feels safe and secure.https://spca.bc.ca/survey/dog-adoption-application-cowichan/ Primary Color: Tan Secondary Color: White Weight: 23.5 Age: 2yrs 9mths 2wks

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Meet Ellie, the lovably wrinkly diva! At almost three years old, this gorgeous bloodhound is on the hunt for a special forever home. With her soulful eyes and velvety ears, Ellie is 85 pounds of pure love. While she walks nicely on a leash, her detective nose can lead her on unexpected adventures!Ellie's high energy, strong prey drive, and love of "singing" are quintessential bloodhound traits. She'd thrive in a home without small children, close neighbors, or free-ranging small animals. Though she enjoys the company of other dogs, Ellie's preference is to be the star of the show, avoiding any sibling rivalries over toys and treats.This resilient girl has battled severe allergies, resulting in ear and eye infections. She'll need ongoing medication and a special diet to keep her comfortable. Ellie's intelligence and food motivation make training sessions a blast, especially with positive reinforcement techniques.Ellie's dream home is with experienced guardians familiar with large scent hounds. Her future family should be ready for lots of snuggles and serenades.If you're ready to welcome Ellie's love and loyalty into your life, please fill out the application below. She's eager to meet her perfect match!https://spca.bc.ca/survey/dog-adoption-application-cowichan/ Primary Color: Black Secondary Color: Chestnut Weight: 36.28 Age: 3yrs 0mths 2wks
