Adopted! LUCY! super cute little horse coat!

Lucy was rescued after a breeder dumped her in a high kill shelter.  Not only was Lucy’s life at risk, the breeder had obviously just torn her away from her puppies and she was in severe pain from badly infected eyes.  She was clearly depressed and sufferring.  Well, that is all behind Lucy now! She was rescued by a wonderful rescue called Hands Paws Hearts and she had her entropian surgery.  Now Lucy is a happy, affectionate dog who gets along well with other dogs and is enjoying life.  We’ve been asked to help find Lucy a home up here in Vancouver, as the rescue who took her in is overwhelmed with dogs from the same high kill shelter.  Please email us for an application to adopt or foster Lucy.  Lucy is a horse coat, under 40 pounds and petite, quite good on leash, and is spayed.  If you go to our FACEBOOK page, go to Photos and you can find an album of photos with Lucy’s story and many more pictures of her.

Adopted-Ginger..this playful sweetie needs a foster home!

Ginger  is a super sweet, wriggly and affectionate young red fawn female!   Ginger is just under 40 pounds and approximately 12 to 18 months old.  Ginger LOVES people!  Ginger tends to jump up on other dogs so she does need to work on her dog manners but is not aggressive, just excitable and dominant.  Ginger would do well in an only dog home and would be fine with older children..she needs to be trained not to jump up and therefore we’d prefer not to place her with small children.   Ginger has her own album under”PHOTOS” on our Facebook page and a videos too.  Ginger is spayed and will be having some eye work done at our cost prior to adoption  We will consider placing her as foster to adopt.   Please contact us if you can provide a foster home or would like to adopt Ginger.

ADOPTED! Mocha…can you resist those big brown eyes?

Mocha is a sweet teddy bear of a dog!    And he is probably one of the most beautiful shar peis we have ever rescued.   He loves to be petted and cuddled and loves to be with “the pack” of dogs in his foster home, and he knows his place and is very respectful of the other dogs.  Mocha came out of  one of LA’s high kill shelters and he is still a bit anxious outside the home and inside the car, but improves daily and we have no doubt that time and good experiences in life will heal all his wounds from his past.   Mocha has been in our foster home for over two months and has been so easy.  As long as he gets some time to run around outside and a good walk, he is happy to nap on a cosy bed.  He is not destructive in the house and he is house trained.  Mocha is ready for adoption and we’d like to see him go to an experienced home with at least one other shar pei.  This little guy is a prize…

Pete, what a sweet good dog!

Pete’s owners left him at the SPCA when they moved, but they did call us at the last minute asking for help.  Pete is now in a nice warm foster home..he was very stressed in the shelter and that affected his skin.  Pete was so good at the vet and with his bath too.  He walks so nicely on leash and knows a few tricks too!  Pete would love to have a human of his own who wants a buddy to go on walks with.

Adopted! Sheba! an adorable sable Bearcoat!

Sheba is a super cute, submissive and dog friendly sable Bearcoat Shar Pei!   Sheba is in a foster home with another little female shar pei and they are playful and so cute together.  She is about three years old and 35 pounds, and was in a shelter due to neglect.  She’s just a sweetheart of a dog who likes bellyrubs, kisses and cuddles!  Sheba does seems to have some arthritis due to the neglect she sufferred, so she will be best suited to a home that is happy to have a sweet little buddy to go for walks with.  She is active and playful, but slow going upstairs and a bit stiff in her hind end and longterm therapy for arthritis will be a condition of her adoption.

Adopted! Sadie

Sadie’s former owner did not treat her well.  Sadie was hit by a car and then received no medical care for her badly injured leg.  But Sadie is a happy girl and a fast mover on her three good legs! Her foster mom has a hard time keeping up!   Sadie LOVES the KIDS in her foster home..she’s not as crazy about the other female dog and other dogs in general, but she sure loves her peeps!  Sadie’s bad leg was surgically removed and she has recovered well and gets around just fine and very fast on three legs!    Sadie has a great life ahead of her!

ADOPTED! TROOPER, a sweet mini male!

Trooper is just a tiny guy and like alot of small dogs, he has a big attitude!  But he is very sweet with people and cute to boot.  Trooper is an adult fawn horse coat and he has the cutest rumply wrinkled head.  Trooper is just great around the house, he likes his bed and his crate and is not messy or destructive.   Trooper is very reactive to other dogs, but with his small size, he’s easy to manage on leash.  He needs to be the only dog and his future home needs to be experienced, but he is so cute and adorable, smart and obedient, he will be more than enough dog for you!
