Story
Meet Tiffany a sweet, shy, and beautiful girl with a heart full of love. After a rough start to life and some time away from the centre, this gentle pup has shown remarkable resilience as she learns to navigate the world with fresh eyes.Tiffany is looking for a very specific type of home that will help her thrive; namely a consistent routine, continuous access to a securely fenced yard, and a commitment to 'fear free' training. Tiffany can initially be shy with people she is unfamiliar with, and will often shy away from quick movements or loud noises. Once she's had some time to get to know you, she really enjoys pets, scratches, and snuggles! Yummy treats or a fun play session is often the first step in earning that trust! She particularly loves to rip around with her squeaky toys and will happily show off her zoomies! While a comfortable home environment is always number one, we've seen Tiffany tend to prefer constant access to outdoors to help her feel more secure. Lying in the sun, taking a dip in a kiddie pool, or playing with toys on the soft grass often trumps being kept inside for her - especially on these nicer days. If you are looking for a sweet, loving dog, and have a peaceful home to allow for Tiffany to thrive in her own time, we encourage you to chat with a team member or apply online!Because of Tiffany's shy nature, an online or in person application will be required prior to a meet and greet: https://spca.bc.ca/adoption/dog-pre-adoption-questionnaire/ Primary Color: Black Secondary Color: White Weight: 24.7 Age: 4yrs 2mths 1wks

Story
Meet Molly, Ducky, and Ginny - three adorable 10-week-old Bullmastiff x German Shepherd sisters who are ready to find their forever homes! These spayed pups are a sweet, social, and playful little trio who love to explore, cuddle, and bounce around together.Like many young puppies, they can be a bit shy when first meeting new people or experiencing new environments, but with a little patience and reassurance, their true personalities shine through. Molly is the most easygoing of the group, taking everything in stride with her calm and gentle nature. Ducky brings the fun (and a little mischief!) as the playful troublemaker who keeps everyone on their toes. Ginny is the sassiest of the trio, full of personality and charm that makes her impossible not to love.These girls are looking for families who are ready for all the joys (and training!) that come with raising a puppy. With continued socialization, structure, and lots of positive experiences, they're sure to grow into wonderful companions. 💕Please note we do not have open viewing for puppies and will be calling approved applicants only to set up meets and greets!https://spca.bc.ca/adoption/dog-pre-adoption-questionnaire/ Primary Color: Black Brindle Secondary Color: White Weight: 6.1 Age: 0yrs 0mths 10wks

Story
Meet Misty! 🐾Misty is a beautiful almost 5-year-old Lab x Boxer with a gentle heart and so much love to give. She can be a little nervous when meeting new people at first, but with a bit of time and patience, she truly shines-once she's comfortable, she is a sweet, affectionate, and loyal companion.Misty is used to having a lot of freedom and has previously been allowed to free roam, including spending time roaming her neighbourhood. Because of this, she will need a home that can provide structure and keep her safe-she would do best with a securely fenced yard and supervision while she adjusts to a more contained lifestyle.She also experiences some separation anxiety so she would benefit from adopters who can offer consistency, patience, and help her build comfort when alone. A home where she isn't left for long periods would be ideal.Misty would thrive in a calm, understanding environment that allows her to settle in at her own pace. While she may start off a little unsure, the reward is a loving, devoted dog who will form a strong bond with her people.If you're looking for a companion who just needs a little guidance, safety, and a lot of love, Misty could be your perfect match. 💕If you think you could be her Purrfect home, please fill out an online application Primary Color: Black Weight: 31 Age: 4yrs 10mths 1wks

Story
Meet Titan! 🐾Titan is a handsome neutered Shepherd x Pit Bull-type mix who has truly started to shine since coming into our care at the end of April. Originally brought in as a stray, this big softie has shown us he's all about love, connection, and cozy moments.Titan is extremely affectionate and thrives on attention-he's the kind of dog who will happily soak up all the snuggles you're willing to give (and then ask for more). He's been friendly with other dogs so far and seems to enjoy their company, though any introductions should be done thoughtfully to set everyone up for success.Like many dogs who've had a bit of an uncertain past, Titan does experience some separation anxiety. The good news is he's already making progress with this in his foster home, and he'll do best with a patient adopter who can continue supporting him as he builds confidence being on his own.Titan is also booked for TPLO surgery on June 16th, which will help address a knee injury. Following surgery, he'll need about 6 weeks of strict rest and limited activity to heal properly. This means his future family will need to be committed to supporting his recovery-think short leash breaks, quiet time, and lots of calm companionship. Our team will be happy to walk you through what this looks like and provide guidance along the way.Titan is a loving, loyal companion who bonds deeply with his people. With a bit of extra care during his recovery and continued support for his confidence, this sweet boy is going to make an incredibly devoted best friend.If you're looking for a snuggly sidekick with a big heart, Titan might just be your perfect match 💙*Please note he is currently in foster*Please fill out an online application if you are interested in meeting him Primary Color: Brown Secondary Color: Black Weight: 34.5 Age: 2yrs 1mths 2wks
