Story
**Currently fostered in Houston Texas but is available for out of state adoption via rescue transportation. Virtual meet and greet offered prior to adoption commitment** Kyra is a happy go lucky pup who found herself abandoned on the streets. She was emaciated, had poor skin and just full of worms. Thankfully an amazing woman found her and took her in. She got her clean, well fed, and fully vetted. Now, Kyra is ready to start the next chapter in her adventure! Kyra is just over 2 years old, and is a total hambone of a dog. We believe she is some kind of pitbull, retriever, hound mix. Basically what we call, a Texas Street Special! Whatever her breed, she is all adventure pup and very eager for life. Kyra loves people, I don't think she could ever meet a stranger. She's extremely loving, and enjoys cuddles on the couch, giving kisses, and looking cute for treats! We think she would even do wonderfully with children. Kyra has done wonderful with other dogs as well. She is fantastic at her doggie daycare, does well at dog parks, and loves to play. She doesn't mind the cats, She does chase them at times when she just wants to play. Kyra is not an aggressive dog, but she can lack the meaning of personal space and some of the cats we've introduced her to have not taken kindly to that. We think she could do well in just about any home, however, she would prefer to have regular play mates that can keep up with her be it siblings or play mates from friends, neighbors or daycare environment. She just wants to enjoy life with someone! Kyra does very well with training, mostly due to the fact that she's so smart. She learns quickly, and at times, can be TOO smart. Like how she knows how to push the door open if it's not latched properly. She knows her basics such as sit, kennel, stay. Her only need for training is working on her impulse control. She is fully crate trained, and is doing fantastic with her leash training. She is housebroken, but being such a big pup still, we suggest using a kennel until fully acclimated. Though she quite enjoys cuddling in the bed or couch. Kyra is fully vetted, meaning she is current on all vaccinations and preventions. She is spayed as well as microchipped too. For more information on how to adopt Kyra, contact us at MokasMission@Gmail.com.

Story
Meet Bark! Bark is a 9 year old pitbull mix looking for a forever home full of scritches and smooches! Bark is a very affectionate dog, and his favourite place to be is in your lap, or right at your feet. He loves to flop over on his back for belly rubs, and once he gets his snuggles in he will curl up and start snoring up a storm! Bark doesn't mind being around other dogs, but we think this senior fella would be happiest in a home where he doesn't have to share the spotlight. He loves going for long walks where he can explore the world with his nose, although if its raining you can forget it! Bark came to us in rough shape, covered in fleas and with painful rashes all over his legs and belly. He also had both eye and ear infections that required veterinary treatment. Thanks to a hypoallergenic diet and some TLC, Bark is on the road to recovery, and the SPCA is committed to making sure that Bark lives a discomfort-free life. Despite these difficult circumstances, Bark has been a happy and energetic pup with staff and volunteers alike! Bark would be happy in either a house or an apartment, and is fully housetrained. If you want to get to know Bark, come visit him at the Vancouver SPCA today!Please come into the shelter during visiting hours if you would like to meet me. You can also submit an application online if I am in foster or you would like to save some time when you come visit. While we do welcome online applications, in person meets have top priority.dogs:https://spca.bc.ca/adoption/dog-pre-adoption-questionnaire/cats:https://spca.bc.ca/adoption/cat-pre-adoption-questionnaire/Our visiting hours are:Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday: 12-5Thursday, Public Holidays: closedSaturday, Sunday: 12- Primary Color: Tan Weight: 26.5 Age: 9yrs 2mths 2wks

Story
About Athena Athena is a three-year-old Pit Bull/American Bulldog cross, a mix known for its strength, intelligence, and deep loyalty to its people. These breeds tend to thrive in active homes that can match their enthusiasm, provide structure, and enjoy a life full of adventure. We don't know much about Athena's past, but what we do know is that she has shown friendliness, curiosity, and a whole lot of love during her time with us. She is bright, people‑oriented, and always ready to greet her humans with excitement. At around a year old, Athena is still very much in her teenage phase-playful, energetic, and eager to explore the world. Athena would be the perfect partner for someone who loves getting outside and staying active. Training & Support Athena is a high-energy girl who responds well to positive, reward-based training. Treats, praise, and structure help her stay focused and build her confidence. Like many young dogs, she's still learning boundaries, and gentle, consistent guidance will help her continue to grow into a well-mannered companion. She does display mild resource guarding with high‑value toys and chews, which is not uncommon. This is manageable with training, clear routines, and setting her up for success by avoiding triggers in the home. Athena is very smart and food motivated, making her eager to learn and quick to pick up new skills. Ideal Home Athena would do best in a home that can give her the outlet she needs for her energy and excitement, whether that’s regular walks, hikes, or fun training sessions that keep her brain busy. She loves people and is affectionate but would be happiest in a home without other pets or children. Although Athena needs to be the only dog in the home, she still enjoys interacting with other compatible dogs outside, particularly friendly males. Athena's enthusiasm, energy, and lovable personality will make any day brighter in your home! ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ready to Apply?
