Story
Chi Chi is a sweet, sensitive girl who has endured far more than any dog ever should. She came from a situation with many other dogs and carries the scars - both physical and emotional - of having had to fend for herself. Because of this, Chi Chi has made it very clear during her time in shelter that she much prefers the comfort of calm, trustworthy people over the company of other dogs. She is not suited for dog parks or dog‑to‑dog play, and she will truly thrive as the only pet in her new home, where she can finally feel safe and be the center of someone's world.Despite her difficult past, Chi Chi's gentle spirit shines through every day. She loves to cuddle, loves being close to her people, and has a soft, affectionate soul that reveals itself the moment she feels safe. The world is still new to her - many everyday experiences are unfamiliar and can feel overwhelming - but with patience, understanding, and a trauma‑informed approach, she continues to blossom.Chi Chi is looking for a calm, quiet home with an experienced adopter - someone familiar with under‑socialized or fearful dogs who can help guide her through house training, leash skills, and building confidence at her own pace. What she needs most is a family willing to celebrate small victories, offer steady reassurance, and give her the stability she's never had.In return, Chi Chi will offer quiet loyalty, gentle affection, and the deeply rewarding experience of watching a deserving dog learn what it means to feel safe and loved. If you're ready to change a life - and let Chi Chi change yours - she's ready to meet you Primary Color: Red Brown Weight: 27.2 Age: 5yrs 1mths 1wks

Story
Sasha is a gentle soul who recently arrived in Penticton through the Drive for Lives program. She's spent her life living outdoors and hasn't yet had the chance to enjoy the cozy comforts most dogs take for granted. Because of this, the world can feel a little overwhelming, and Sasha is understandably wary of new people. With patience, kindness, and the support of an AnimalKind trainer, she has every chance to grow into a more confident companion. Sasha has lived with both dogs and cats before and may be able to share her home with respectful furry friends. She thrives with long walks, mental enrichment, and a calm environment where she can learn at her own pace. Sasha is ready for a family who will show her what it means to feel safe, loved, and truly at home. Primary Color: Tri Color Weight: 19.8 Age: 3yrs 0mths 1wks
