Story
Meet Sherlock:Sherlock is a friendly, social, and easy-going boy who truly loves being around people. He thrives on human companionship, whether that's joining you for daily activities, relaxing nearby, or soaking up attention and affection.Sherlock can become easily excited at times, so he would do best in a calm home environment with a predictable daily routine. Providing plenty of enrichment, mental stimulation, and appropriate outlets for his energy will help him continue to thrive and be the best version of himself.To support Sherlock's continued success, we recommend ongoing positive exposure to exciting or novel situations (Such as brushing, or leashing), along with working with an AnimalKind-accredited trainer. This will help him build confidence and develop healthy coping skills when faced with new experiences.If you're looking for a loving companion who craves human connection and will happily be by your side, Sherlock may be the perfect match for you!Walk-ins are prioritized.We are open Tuesday - Saturday 12 pm -4 pm (except for Stat Holidays).In order to prepare for your visit, you can submit a Pre-Adoption Questionnaire as well at;https://spca.bc.ca/adoption/dog-pre-adoption-questionnaire/ Primary Color: White Secondary Color: Cream Weight: 5.53 Age: 3yrs 0mths 1wks

Story
Meet Barkley:Barkely is a sweet and affectionate dog who enjoys spending time with his people. He can be prone to excitement and may experience anxiety when left alone, so he will thrive in a home that can provide patience, consistency, and support as he settles into his new routine.Barkely wears his heart on his sleeve and can be quite vocal when he's feeling excited or uncertain. He may bark to communicate when left alone, so he would do best with a family that is understanding of his needs and committed to helping him develop confidence and coping skills over time.To help Barkely be successful, he would benefit from a predictable daily schedule, plenty of enrichment opportunities, and a gradual increase in the amount of time he spends alone. Continued positive exposure to new and exciting situations can help build his confidence, and we recommend working with an AnimalKind-accredited trainer to support his ongoing learning and development.Because anxiety can sometimes have a significant impact on a dog's well-being, Barkely's future guardians may also wish to consult with their veterinarian regarding additional support if needed. With the right guidance, structure, and understanding, Barkely has the potential to flourish into a confident and happy companion who will reward his family with endless love and loyalty.Walk-ins are prioritized.We are open Tuesday - Saturday 12 pm -4 pm (except for Stat Holidays).In order to prepare for your visit, you can submit a Pre-Adoption Questionnaire as well at;https://spca.bc.ca/adoption/dog-pre-adoption-questionnaire/ Primary Color: Brown Weight: 29.4 Age: 1yrs 3mths 0wks
