Story
Meet our beautiful girl Topaz,Topaz is a beautiful girl who has overcome a challenging past. She came into our care in poor physical health and was very nervous about the world around her. Everything was new to her, from trusting humans, to even just playing as any dog should. Despite these hardships, Topaz has shown incredible strength and a desire to trust and bond with people. Despite her difficult past, this girl has a loving spirit and is ready to find her forever home.Topaz is loyal and protective of her people. She thrives on human companionship and forms strong bonds with those she trusts. She can be a bit reserved at first, but with patience and love, her playful and affectionate side will shine through. This sweet girl needs someone who understands that building trust takes time. Consistent, positive reinforcement will help her gain confidence. The understanding that gradual exposure to new people and environments is essential. Topaz needs to be the only dog in her new home. Her protective nature means she feels most comfortable when she doesn't have to share her space or attention with other pets. She would thrive in a calm environment where she can be the center of attention and receive plenty of love and care. Topaz should go to a home with breed experience- she would not be a great fit for a new dog guardian. As Topaz has a very thick coat, constant grooming will be an asset to keep her looking beautiful and feeling her best! If you would like to come and meet Topaz, you may contact the Parksville SPCA at 250-248-3811 or Parksville@spca.bc.ca. Primary Color: Black Secondary Color: Brown Weight: 39.2 Age: 8yrs 3mths 3wks

Story
Keisha – 37 lbs, 3 year old Shepherd cross is looking for a home. Keisha is a super sweet and smart girl, and sweetheart to the volunteers who visit her at the SPCA PV sanctuary. Keisha was found in the hills around Puerto Vallarta tied up, hungry, trying to care for and protect her 6 young pups. After her rescue the SPCA PV learned that Keisha is blind from being poisoned. Despite this tough early life, Keisha is very sweet and friendly with humans and dogs (she is even ok being carried). On her walks she doesn't pull and likes to sniff a lot (her nose is her eyes). Keisha is spayed, vaccinated, healthy, and now has a full belly every day, which makes her very happy. She'd love to make up for a tough early start with a warm loving home. If interested, please email pvcaadoptions@gmail.com and tell us a little about yourself.

Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Hazel is such an intelligent dog with a drive to learn and grow! If you're familiar with her breeds, they are very dedicated, smart and loyal dogs who have SO much to offer their person. If you're seeking for a dog who is constantly ready to fine tune her skills, and seeking a life of enrichment and adventure, Hazel is the one for you! This gal LOVES her people, and is thrilled to spend the day by your side, playing away with her toys and snuggling up on your lap. She loves pets and rubs, and leans her whole self into you as you dote on her! Hazel is SUPER toy motivated, and all do ANYTHING for the chance at a game of tug or fetch! She keeps herself busy for hours with her antics, and will thrive with a home who offers her toys as rewards during training sessions! She loves to shred soft toys however, so needs tougher chewer toys, or a home who doesn't mind her cloud piles.Miss Hazel does show a lot of excitement towards other dogs, but has shown reactivity towards them while in our care, and is seeking to be the only pet in the home. We think with show introductions and positive reinforcement, we think she can make great progress! She's so smart and motivated!Hazel would thrive in an adult orientated home, with lots of time and dedication to offer her! For her, its not just about being physically enriched, her mental simulation and enrichment is just as important- if not more important for her to succeed!She is seeking a home to offer her a force free, positive reinforcement based training system so she can keep being her very best self!

Story
If you're looking for a new man, look no further!George is a very sweet boy who is searching for his furever home. He is a very big boy and sometimes doesn't know his own size! He loves to lean against you and give slobbery kisses while you're giving him love and attention. George is selective with other dogs, he has made a couple friends while in care but will react to other dogs that he isn't fond of. He is reactive towards men, although with positive reinforcement and lots of treats, he will learn that they are nice! He has had good interactions with male dog walkers so he's getting there!He loves to snuggle and wants nothing more than to curl up on a nice warm couch with his people! George is very keen to learn and is extremely food motivated, he responds very well to treats and snacks. He knows the basics and has the potential to learn so much more! If you think George sounds like the perfect match for you, send us an application! Primary Color: Black Secondary Color: Tan Weight: 53.9 Age: 2yrs 0mths 1wks

Story
Meet Rex!!This handsome fella came to us with no history, so we are still getting to know all about him and unearthing his amazingly hilarious personality! If you're looking for a goofy dog to make you laugh and smile while he wiggles and dances through the air, you've met the right one! This fella gets the ultimate zoomies when he's excited, and will race around his space showing off just how fast and funny he is! He LOVES his people once he gets to know them, and really makes sure he shows you just how special you are to him! He can get excited and jump up a bit, but has been improving already in his short time here and sure to keep learning more!He seems to really enjoy puzzle toys and snuffle matts, and loves to keep his brain busy. He is very tidy in his room at night, and doesn't make a fuss or mess when he has to go back to his room! Since we have no history on this fella, we have noticed he does need an extra few moments and reassurance meeting new people, but does great as soon as he knows what you're all about! He would thrive with an understanding home who is ready to learn all about Rex! Rex doesn't seem overly keen on other male dogs, but does seem to really enjoy similar sized female dogs, so surely wouldn't mind dog friends to see on adventures!This fella is ready for walks and love, and hopes to call you his very own!If you are interested, please submit our Dog Pre-Adoption Questionnaire below!!
