Story
**This dog is currently being fostered in Houston Texas but is available for adoption via rescue transport. We provide zoom call to meet your dog prior to adoption as well as no added fees for transport** Bio: 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 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, though we suggest age 10+, not because she isn't a good girl but because her sheer size could pose an issue for smaller kids. Sometimes she gets the zoomies when excited and small children may be overlooked when she's zooming around. 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. While a bit rough for play with smaller dogs, large pups and her do fantastic. Kyra matches the energy of the pups she is with, so if they want calm, she will be calm. If they want crazy, she will start her zooming! At times, she can be quite vocal when playing with others, but all of it is playful banter. We think Kyra would absolutely love to have another large canine brother or sister to enjoy life with, but would also do well as an only pup too! 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 to have continued impulse control taught, as she struggles when she's over excited to stay in place. Though, which dog doesn't! 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 if you'll allow. 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
This handsome boy is ready to add some excitement to your life! Meet Knuckles, a high energy, obedient, bundle of fun. Knuckles is very food motivated, and will do anything you ask to get a treat, including 'sit' and 'lay down'. Because of his high energy, his love for treats is a very useful tool to keep him centered. It easily distracts him from being mouthy or jumpy. Knuckles is also a huge lover of fetch. He is entranced by a ball and will bring it right back to you every time. His other hobby is pools! Knuckles loves to splash into a pool to cool off after a long game of fetch. This sweet boy will need a home that can give him lots of attention and exercise. He loves his people but does not share that love for other animals, so he will need to go to a home with no other pets so he can be the only star!Do you think you could be Knuckles' person? Here are some ways to find out:1. Visit our centre to meet this pet during viewing hours at 3202 Norland Ave, learn more about their ideal match and apply to adopt in person; or2. Submit an online application adopt.spca.bc.ca and staff will contact the first suitable adopter to set-up a visit! Kindly note that due to the high number of applications and the availability of walk-in adoptions, an online applicant would have to be available to come in for a meet within 24 hrs.

Story
Hello! My name is Earl Grey and I am looking for my forever home after recovering from hip surgery. I have learned so much in my foster home and I'm eager to learn even more! I am very proud of myself for going potty outside. When I need to go, I will patiently stand by the door. Sometimes I can get too excited when playing and am trying my best to redirect my mouthing to toys. When I was younger, I grew up with cats and learned very good grooming and stretching practices from them. I would be happy to share my home with a cat who can put up with my puppy antics. With other dogs, I have been working hard on understanding whether or not they want to play with me.I really like to be around humans and will happily take a snooze while people are around, but I am still working on my confidence when I am all by myself. Please be patient with me as I work on my separation anxiety and settle into my new routine at my forever home. Do you think you could be Earl Grey's person? Here's how to find out: Submit an online application adopt.spca.bc.ca and staff will contact the first suitable adopter to set-up a visit!

Story
Meet adoptable Diego! ~ GENDER: Male ~ AGE: 3 years ~ WEIGHT: 57 lbs ~ BREED: Pit Bull mix ~ TEMPERAMENT: Diego has a long list of awesome qualities ... friendly, intelligent, affectionate, loyal, and playful to name a few. Diego is so eager to become a best friend to someone willing to give him a chance. He is super smart, very trainable, and very personable. He’s still young so he still has quite a bit of energy. He loves going for long walks, hikes, or any type of outdoor adventures. Waves are highly interesting and exciting, so water is not a problem! He likes to play and be goofy, but will also be happy just laying around being lazy and hanging out. He does great on a leash and never pulls. If you stop to talk to someone, he will just sit next to you and chill while you chat. His grateful, loving gaze will surely melt your heart. He is a wonderful, loyal friend who just needs that special person to share his life with. ~ ENERGY: Medium-high. ~ DOG FRIENDLY: Ok with female dogs. Selective (not always friendly) with male dogs. He has a dominant type of personality around other pooches. ~ CAT FRIENDLY: No. ~ KID FRIENDLY: Yes. ~ GOOD ON LEASH: Yes. ~ GOOD IN CAR: Yes. ~ HOUSE TRAINED: Yes. ~ BARKING: Minimal. ~ SHEDDING: Minimal. ~ ANY AGGRESSION: No, Diego loves humans of all ages! ~ MEDICAL: Neutered, de-wormed, has all vaccines including rabies. He’s a healthy boy. ~ RESCUE HISTORY: Diego was abandoned in the streets of Ajijic, Mexico. He hung around outside a local shop because the owners often fed him. But some customers were afraid of Diego, even though he is not an aggressive dog. The shop owners feared they would lose customers so they tried very hard to find a home for Diego. He moved in with a foster family in Ajijic temporarily but unfortunately they could not keep him long term. His fosters rented a space at a horse stable for Diego to stay for the time being, until a new foster or permanent home can be found. Diego is well cared for, exercised daily, and safe from the dangers of the streets. But he is still longing for a home & family of his own. ~ A MESSAGE FROM DIEGO'S CARETAKERS: Diego is a very special dog. He is so eager to belong somewhere and to be someone's best pal. He loves to keep you company, even if it's just hanging out doing nothing. He is loyal and bonds quickly & strongly with his people. Diego has a silly goofy side too - he loves to play, chase squirrels, and wrestle with cardboard boxes. He enjoys his walks very much and he's fantastic on the leash. Not to mention he is super handsome and gets tons of compliments when out for walks. Because he tends to be dominant with other dogs, he would do best as an only dog. If you decide to adopt this boy, I guarantee you'll fall in love with him and he will be the very best companion.
