ADOPTABLE DOGS
Thank you for considering adopting! Before you fill out an application, please visit our Adoption Program page to learn about our process and find answers to frequently asked questions. If there aren't any dogs below that you are interested in, please try not to be discouraged. Since we typically run a smaller program, dogs tend to move quickly and may not make it onto our website. For this reason, we strongly recommend filling out an open adoption application to start the process.
Please note we do not adopt outside of BC. We adopt to residents of the Lower Mainland,
Vancouver Island, and the Interior of BC.

autumn
Autumn, a 3 year old female who spent over 165 days at the shelter, was overlooked because her anxiety from being in a kennel made her jumpy and frantic when she spent time with potential adopters. She is THRIVING in her foster home and is so lovely.

June
Formerly known as Posie, June is a gorgeous bully girl under 1 year old and approximately 55 lbs who is looking for a foster home to help her continue building confidence and stability.
June would do best in a home with:
• Bully breed experience
• No small children
• Another confident dog to help guide her and be a positive role model
She can be insecure when on her own and may get a little mouthy when overstimulated, so she needs a patient, understanding foster committed to helping her succeed. June also has a high prey drive, so she cannot live with cats or other small animals. June could thrive in an townhouse, or detached home. However, if living in a townhouse, she would benefit from someone who is home more often than not, as she can sometimes be vocal when left alone.
Juniper
DOB: senior, approx 9
Gender: Female
Est weight: 70 lbs.
Housing needs: Apt/TH/House
Kids: Older yes
Dog social: Dog selective
Cats: No
Juniper is a lively, affectionate girl with a big personality and even bigger love for her people. Despite her estimated age, she has a ton of energy and would thrive in a home that can give her plenty of opportunities to run, play, and burn it off.
She’s wonderful with people and absolutely lives for cuddles. She is happiest curled up under the covers right beside you. Juniper would do best in a home with older kids, as her excitement can sometimes come out in jumpy, enthusiastic greetings that aren’t quite young kid friendly. She doesn’t mean any harm; she just hasn’t quite figured out how to contain her joy yet.
On leash, Juniper can be reactive and gets very excited around other dogs. Her reactivity seems to stem from overstimulation rather than aggression. She has successfully done parallel walks with another dog and settled nicely once she worked through her initial excitement. With continued guidance and positive experiences, she has a lot of potential to improve in this area.
Juniper is incredibly food-motivated, which makes her a quick learner and a great candidate for training. However, this also means she can be protective around food, so a home that understands and can manage food boundaries is important.
She hasn’t had much prior socialization, but she genuinely wants to interact and connect. With patience and consistency, she could do very well in a home with another dog, ideally one that is calm, confident, and unbothered by her energy.
missy
10 week old female mastiff mix. Adorable, sweet but also fearful, she will need a specific home dedicated to confidence building, socializing (in a positive way) and who have confident resident dogs to show her the way.
Paisley
Age: 8 years old
Gender: Female
Weight: approx 85 lbs.
Energy Level: Low
Housing needs: Yard
Kids: Yes
Can live with dogs: Well matched male
Dog social: Yes
Cats: No
This beautiful girl came to us after being abandoned in a boarding kennel, where she lived for four years receiving the bare minimum. Underweight with overgrown nails, an untreated UTI and minimal time with humans - Paisley came into our care and we watched her blossom.
Thanks to her loving and committed foster family, Paisley has become part of a family who are helping her make up for lost time. Paisley loves to cuddle, play fetch, socialize with other dogs and most of all be with her people. She's easy going, not reactive on leash and loves kids. Paisley can be a bit mouthy when she's overstimulated so it would be important that her new family manage her around little ones (like with any dog). She has shown separation anxiety in the past which given her history, we were expecting to see. This improved immensely once she settled into her foster home so we expect there to be an adjustment in a new home.
Paisley is on the lower energy end and would be happiest in a home with a yard that she can sunbathe in. No cats for this girl but she would be happy to live with another male dog.
Paisley does have allergies and has done well on a limited ingredient food in addition to apoquel as needed. This sweet girl has so much to offer and so much love to give.
rip
This handsome, boisterous guy is still learning to keep four on the floor. He is dog social and loves to play with his dog friends! He struggled in a kennel, which forced him to contain his zest for life. Rip loves humans but can be super jumpy and mouthy when overstimulated. He is crazy food motivated, loves learning new things, and also eating anything he can get his mouth on.

Meet Jaxson, 3-4 years old: eco-warrior, introvert, and five-star house dog.
Jaxson is passionate about the environment. On walks, he proudly collects discarded garbage from the ground and brings it home for proper disposal. Prepare to find out how many deflated basketballs are living in your bushes because he will find every one. He is deeply disappointed in people who litter and has taken it upon himself to fix the problem. He will bring said items home, place them in a neat pile, and wait for you to put them in the garbage where they belong. We are continually both amused and grateful for Jaxson's unwavering commitment to the environment.
First impressions? A little rough. Jaxson can be awkward, unsettled, and loud when stressed, so busy environments are not his vibe. But once he’s settled into a home? Absolute gem. Gold-star good boy. The kind you brag about to your friends.
Jaxson is an introvert at heart, making him the perfect dog for a fellow homebody or hermit. When guests come over, he will enthusiastically provide commentary (by commentary, we mean barking), and it’s something his therapist would like him to work on. If you hate pop-ins (don’t we all?), he will put a quick end to those. Once he’s done announcing, he’s happy to accept affection from everyone - actually, he quite demands it!
Jaxson is dog-social and would happily share a home with another chill, respectful dog. On leash, he’s not reactive - though ducks have been known to provoke very loud disagreements. Ducks know what they did .
Inside the house, Jaxson shines. He’s a perfect gentleman, an elite-level couch potato, and an A+ cuddler. He’s smart, incredibly communicative, and will politely let you know when he needs to go outside. Jaxson is medium energy, about 55lbs (but is carrying some extra weight), easy to live with, and always down for swimming, trail walks, food (huge fan), and snuggling up with his people. Jaxson is full of funny little quirks and would likely do best in a home with older kids or a quiet adult-only home.
If you want a loyal best friend who loves hard, lounges harder, and is doing his part to save the planet—Jaxson is ready to move in.

Don’t worry, we’re not changing our name to PugABull, but maybe just momentarily for this pint-sized heartthrob. Meet Tank, the energetic, sweet, loving soul who’s looking for a flat-faced loving home to call his own. He’s now hiring for the perfect person or family to be recruited as his dedicated fetch enthusiast – could that be you? He’s got a lot of pep in his step and would love a canine companion or fun-loving family to keep him entertained!
Tank is housetrained but may take a few days to teach you his cues when he needs to go outside - while he loves to make his mark when out and about, he’s very respectful of life inside. He’s working hard on leash etiquette, so you won’t end up entangled in his quest to sniff everything. He walks well with other dogs, and his tail starts dropping after a couple kms (the international pug sign for I’m ready for home).
Not your average pug-tato, he doesn’t nap a lot during the day – trading snoozing for more interesting things like fully immersing himself in becoming your shadow or watching the world go by. While he’s not a lap dog, he does love laying right beside you on the couch once he’s settled in for the evening after his evening zoomies full of on-demand fetch. Thankfully, Tank sleeps well overnight and is even crate trained, although he wouldn’t turn down a spot in bed with you if you’d have him
