My name is Atticus!

Atticus is a big, exuberant boy bursting with love and enthusiasm! This handsome pup came to us from unfortunate circumstances and is so ready to find out what a home filled with love and care looks like.

When Atticus first entered our care, he was underweight, and now he loves, loves, loves his food-sometimes a little too much! He's learning to pace himself and would benefit from a feeding routine that supports his healthy weight gain and keeps him happy.

At his core, Atticus is a smart and eager-to-please pup, but he doesn't quite realize his size or strength yet. Because of this, he would do best in a home without young children or fragile environments, as he's still figuring out how to play gently and ask for attention politely.

Atticus can be selective about other dogs and may prefer to be the only pet in the home. However, with the guidance of an AnimalKind trainer and positive reinforcement, he can continue to build confidence and improve his social skills.

Despite his size, Atticus's body can barely contain his boundless enthusiasm and zest for life! With some structured training, consistent boundaries, and a lot of love, Atticus will shine as a loyal, loving companion.

If you're ready to give this lovable big guy the forever home he deserves, Atticus can't wait to meet you! Please submit a pre-adoption questionnaire here: https://spca.bc.ca/adoption/dog-pre-adoption-questionnaire/
