CURRENT ADOPTABLES
Anyone that has had the opportunity to adopt an abused or neglected dog will understand what a powerful thing it is. Seeing them transform into a confident and joyful pet will absolutely fill your heart.
These moments of growth are matched only by the devotion they will show you when they come to understand you are their hero and have given them life.
Russet
12 week old shepherd Mix
female - 15lbs
Kids: yes
Dogs: yes
Cats: yes
Trail, BC
Status : Available
This entire litter was named after potatoes because you can imagine what they looked like as wee babies. Russet is quite timid at first, and can bark at new people and dogs. She is also more on the sensitive side, and enjoys a good cuddle.
She has a big voice. She is on her way to be house trained and does know how to sit for food if you are patient with her.
Princess
3 year old female
Husky X
60 lbs
Kids: yes
Dogs: yes
Cats: maybe
Winlaw, BC

Princess has come to us from the Yellowknife SPCA. She is a dog that is full of happiness and spirit. She has some energy that she loves to burn by playing fetch or, preferable, wrestling with other dogs. We want to see Princess in a home with other dogs as she is such a social creature.
She can sometimes jump up to say hello and is always looking for a meal. We don't get many chubby dogs from up north, but she has done well for herself :>
A halti or front lead harness would help with managing leash walks as she is quite new to those. She is ok off-leash if she has bonded to her person, but has moments where she dances away, like when she knows it's time to be leashed or get in the car.
This girl would do really well in a busy family as she likes to be entertained and pet - many hands make light work!

Jersey is male a border collie shepherd mix who is very smart, gentle and social.
Quite calm for a pup - enjoys a rousing game of fetch. He does do some resource guarding and can be timid meeting new dogs. He's a clever little dude who will charm his way into your heart.
As he came to us from AARCS, he has already been neutered and will have an adult adoption fee of $400.

Stella
3 year old collie mix
female - 55lbs
Kids: yes
Dogs: yes
Cats: yes
Rossland, BC
Status : Available
Stella comes to us from Misty Creek (Lethbridge) after spending quite some time at the facility there. She was clearly someone pet as she is calm, sweet, gentle and has good house manners (aside from counter surfing for unattended food).
Stella plays well with other dogs and is generally disinterested in cats. She has pretty good leash manners as well.
Her recall needs work, but she likely just needs to a) learn her name or b) bond to someone in order to want to run lovingly to their call.
She is currently not spayed but will be booked in by mid-December.
Chloe was taken in by a family who can no longer care for her. She is in a home with kids and cats, and does great with other dogs. She is house and crate-trained, has good recall, and loves to be with her people.
Chloe would benefit from a busy family where she can get lots of attention, and someone who is active, or at least has another dog to play with.
She is a very sweet girl who is a great size for biking and running... and road trips!
