Story
Sweet Keisha is looking for a home. She is 40 lb shepherd x lab with a kind and brave soul, who just melts into the arms of those kind enough to give her affection. Keisha was found in Puerto Vallarta, skinny and hungry, trying to care for and protect her litter of 6 puppies. She had dug a small hole to hide them as she stood over them, chained up, until thankfully the angels of the SPCA PV came to rescue them. After her rescue, they learned that Keisha was also blind, they believe from poisoning. Keisha's pups all inherited her kind soul and affection for humans. And we hope that Keisha herself will find her own happiness. Naturally because she can't see, she enjoys sniffari walks, to take in the world around her, and would love a safe property to explore her world in between cuddles with a family that this time would love her. If you think you may be able to give Keisha a home, we'd love to hear from you at pvcaadoptions@gmail.com. You can also go directly to our application here: https://forms.office.com/r/b1Fkq3u4zw

Story
Meet our resilient girl, Onyx. Onyx has overcome a difficult past and is now ready to find a loving forever home. She came to in poor physical health and was very nervous about the world around her. Everything was new to her, from trusting humans, to eating and drinking from proper food bowls, to going out on walks, to even just playing as any dog should. Despite these hardships, Onyx has shown incredible strength and a desire to trust and bond with people.Our sweet girl is a gentle soul with a loving heart. While she may initially be shy or hesitant, her affectionate nature shines through once she feels safe. Onyx enjoys gentle interactions and is loving being able to discover the new world around her on walks and continual interactions with our amazing volunteers! Onyx 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. We have been working with Onyx at the shelter to help her with her potty-training. She has made such great progress, and we are very proud of how well she has done. Having access to a yard would be lovely for her and would assist to continue training.Onyx would thrive in a quiet household, possibly with older children who can respect her space and help her learn how to play. Onyx should go to a home with breed experience- she would not be a great fit for a new dog guardian. If you would like to come and meet Onyx, you may contact the Parksville SPCA at 250-248-3811 or Parksville@spca.bc.ca. Primary Color: Black Secondary Color: Brown Weight: 32.4 Age: 5yrs 3mths 0wks

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.

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.

Sweet Peaches is looking for her new furever home. Being so young, she has already had a rough go with her life. After having 10 puppies (which were re homed by a different rescue), Peaches was then unable to move with her family to their new home. Her family had to make the tough decision to say goodbye to her.Peaches is a very sweet girl, full of excitement and energy, but at first meet she can be a bit shy and timid. Once she realizes there's no reason to be nervous, Peaches gets really excited and playful. Currently she enjoys jumping all over her favourite people, we are working with teaching her all 4 on the floor manners. She also doesn't quite understand what a leash is, and tends to want to walk in between the handlers legs. In her past home she lived with peacefully with other dogs, children, cats and livestock.Peaches ideal home would be one that is patient and willing to continue her obedience training. Also once she has obtained some proper training, she would love an active lifestyle.If you are interested in Peaches, the first step to adoption is filling out the adoption application.

Story
Meet Harlow!Harlow arrived in our care as a stray, and she is now searching for her forever home. She is a sweet but timid dog who will need patience and understanding to help her feel safe and comfortable. With her favorite people, Harlow is affectionate and loves getting pets and scratches. Once she has expended her energy, she would be a great buddy to relax and curl up on the couch with.Harlow is a very smart girl who loves her treats, so continued training would be a wonderful bonding experience! She can be unsure of new environments and may require some time to adjust. While she is getting used to her new space and family, Harlow's ideal home would have a safe and secure yard for her to enjoy, as she loves being outdoors. Once she has adjusted to her new life, Harlow would love to join her people on outdoor adventures.Harlow has recovered from a previous injury and is looking for a family that can help monitor and manage it to ensure she stays comfortable. Due to her shyness, she would do best in a home with older, dog-savvy children or adults only. While Harlow may do best as the only dog in the home, she could potentially make canine friends outside the house with the right introductions. With patience, she may also be open to having a feline friend. If you're looking for a gentle and loyal companion, Harlow might just be the perfect match!Do you think you could be Harlow's person? Here are some ways to find out:1.) Visit our centre to meet this pet during adoption viewings Friday to Wednesday noon to 3pm, learn more about their ideal match, and apply to adopt in person; or2.)

Story
Meet Rilia!Rilia is an energetic girl who's ready to find her forever home. She loves being around her people and is always eager for pets and attention. With lots of energy to burn, Rilia is looking for an active family that can take her on exciting adventures and long walks. She's playful and enjoys a good game of fetch, but can be a bit jumpy when she's excited. With some training, she'll learn to express her enthusiasm in other ways, and ongoing training will help keep her mind stimulated and tire her out. Rilia came into our care with her brother, but she would thrive as the only dog in the home since she prefers to keep her toys all to herself. However, with proper introductions, she may be able to make doggy friends outside of the house. If you're looking for a fun, energetic companion, Rilia might be the perfect match for you! 🐾🛥️🌊Do you think you could be Rilia's person? Here are some ways to find out:1.)
