My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Patty,

Patty is a high energy, active girl looking for a new lease on life. She is easily overwhelmed in busy environments and is looking for an adult only home in a quiet, rural area where she can continue to work on her desensitization to the world around her.

Patty is looking for a home with yard access; apartment and city living will not be appropriate for her needs. She is an affectionate dog who loves to play fetch and engage with her toys. Being a smart breed, she does well with enrichment tools and scent work. Patty is house trained and would love a yard to continue to work on her obedience training. Patty responds very well to positive reinforcement both using food and toys as motivation.

She is looking for a calm and patient guardian who can continue to work on her behaviour modification. Patty can become overstimulated quickly and requires a guardian who understands her body language when growing anxious.
Patty is excellent with other outgoing dogs and would do well with another medium-large breed canine companion in the home.

If you are ready to take on a new dog, please drop in from 12pm-3pm Tuesday-Sunday to meet Patty and fill out an application, or, apply online through the BC SPCA website.
