Zoey

Labrador Retriever Pit Bull Terrier

Female, Young

West Vancouver, BC

Size

(when grown) -

Details

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Meet sweet girl Zoey! Unfortunately Zoey's past is a bit of a mystery to us, as she was sadly abandoned and brought into SPCA care. Zoey is a lovely girl who enjoys long walks and especially loves to lounge in the sun! She walks great on a harness and would love a home that can keep her exercising and shedding a few pounds to stay healthy. After being abandoned, Zoey can't wait to find humans that will spoil her and adore her like she deserves. She is such an affectionate ham, and loves to chat and 'rooo' to her favourite people. This girl is food motivated and very smart, she seems to enjoy positive training. We have quickly discovered that Zoey has a prey drive, so a home without small animals/cats is a must. But don't worry she will provide all the love and cuddles you could possibly need!As we get to know her, she does seem selective about what dogs she likes and which dogs she doesn't - just like people, we don't all get along with everyone! She would prefer to be the only pup at home. Unfortunately we also don't know at this point in time if Zoey has ever been around children either. But we know she's a sweet girl who loves people and can't wait to get swooped away to her new life! Drop in to meet Zoey from 12pm-3pm daily (except Mondays when we're closed), or fill out an application online. Primary Color: Black Secondary Color: White Weight: 35.2 Age: 5yrs 0mths 3wks

Bear - Read Bio

Border Collie German Shepherd Dog

Male, Young

West Vancouver, BC

Size

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

Details

House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Meet our VERY handsome long-term resident Bear!Bear is a young dog in search of an active furever home that will take him for all sorts of adventures! Bear can sometimes be a bit reserved with new people, but once he gets to know you and is trusting, he's a big ham who adores to be with his favourite people. He especially loves to play soccer and keep away with his favourite toys, and will bounce and bound with happiness while he plays. With that said, Bear will need to go to a home with a good amount of outdoor space access, to accommodate his oodles of big boy energy! He is also an excellent climber and is capable of scaling tall fences. He adores toys and puzzles to use his brain! We know that Bear is afraid of confined spaces such as vehicles or kennels - so a home that is comfortable working to slowly get him comfortable with cars would be best, as well as a home that doesn't need to have him crated. A previous foster home put a lot of work into building his confidence around cars. He does have a few specific asks for his future home:-Bear would prefer an adult only home, he is jumpy and mouthy when excited and would not be a good fit for a home with kids.-Bear needs to be the only pet in his forever home, he can be selective with dogs he likes and dogs he doesn't.-Bear needs an experienced home that has had dogs before and can read his body language if he is uncomfortable. If you think this stunning boy may be the guy for you, feel free to drop in from 12pm-3pm daily (except Mondays), or apply through the SPCA website!

Jack

Jack Russell Terrier Chihuahua

Male, Young

West Vancouver, BC

Size

(when grown) -

Details

Not good with kids, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Meet our sweet little Jack. Jack's previous family can no longer care for him, so he finds himself here at the shelter, where everything is pretty frightening. Jack is a sweet boy who wants to be loved, but just needs some time to trust you. In his previous home, Jack was happiest when he could spend as much time as possible with his favourite human, he can feel a little uneasy with visitors to the home & is nervous of strangers to begin with. Once you've earned the honour of having Jack's trust, you will be rewarded with gentle hand kisses as he asks for more pets and head scritches! His puppy-dog eyes will win you over in a heartbeat, and you'll find yourself not being able to say no to his every want and desire! On top of his adorableness, Jack has quite the repertoire of tricks; he knows 'play dead', 'roll over', 'spin', and 'high-five'! What a smart boy! Jack has lived peacefully with a kitty before, so would likely be okay with a cat friend in the home, after slow introductions. Jack is looking for a quiet adult only home, with a guardian who can work with him to grow his confidence and his trust in strangers and visitors to the home. Jack has previously shown some resource guarding, particularly of his favourite humans. He will benefit from desensitization training to make him feel more confident with strangers, handling, and vet visits. Jack will also need some guidance on potty training. If you think you can offer this gorgeous boy the loving home he deserves, fill out an application online or visit him at the shelter 12-3, Tuesday-Sunday.

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Looking for an active yet affectionate dog to add to your family? Look no further! Meet our Reuben! Rube is very energetic and loves being active. His favorite thing to do is go on long walks and adventures with his people. He pulls on leash, so basic leash training with him would be ideal and a harness. He is a runner, and will try to escape if he is off his leash and can become very difficult to try and capture! Recall training would benefit Reuben as well as basic training and good manners. He is a big love bug, and loves human companionship and snuggles. He seems to be quite curious of other dogs and becomes very excitable when he sees another dog, but as always, slow and proper introductions to all animals is best. He loves looking out the window and keeping a look out on the outside world!He knows basic commands such as sit and lay down, but is very eager to learn and is food motivated! He has become an expert at catching air-borne treats as well! Rue would make an exceptional companion and would fit in with a busy household and would love to tag along on all adventures and outings! If you would like to meet Rube, come by the West Van BCSPCA from 12pm-3pm Tuesday-Sunday! Primary Color: Black Secondary Color: Tan Points Weight: 30.9 Age: 1yrs 4mths 2wks
