(Adopted Mar.29/03)
Bandit
Male/neutered/shots current
1 year old
12 lbs

Bandy did not start his life in a great home, their way of disciplining was yelling and hitting. As a result Bandit needs positive reinforcement. Bandit is a very loving, playful and outgoing dog, he has a few quirks that need work on, with time outs, and never TO HIT...I have found with appropriate time outs, he responds well, and I have no problems with him... He is possessive of a chew, and he needs work on letting you take things away from him...other than those things he is loving and friendly.. He does like to grab your pant leg, and tangle himself around your feet when you are walking...all very puppy like manners, but not advisable for anyone not steady on your feet...as he might trip you... He shakes his paw and sits on command..I have had little trouble with housetraining issues, he goes to the door, or uses my dogdoor. He gets along quite well with most dogs, and plays well with them. He will be a wonderful dog, for someone who understands, and has a bit of patience so he knows he will never be hit again. NO CHILDREN
And I also want to thank Kamloops, SPCA, for knowing this dog has a future, and in the right home, will be a loving and wonderful companion.
Now living with a nice young couple, and their darling ST, Kobe, who are working on helping him overcome his issues...residing in Redmond, WA

12 lbs	9.6 lbs

Cheyenne is the most loving, adorable, playful lil girl, she lost her eye in a grooming incident, which is hard to understand, since she is a dream to groom. Her older brother Sparky, is a darling character. He would just love to have a family and a comfy bed to lounge on, while his sister would love to have someone who would love to play with her.
Adopted together, to a marvelous family, residing in Bellingham, WA

(Adopted April 5/03)
Gizmo
Male neutered/shots current
5 years old
17 lbs

Gizmo is a sweet boy. He is a little shy and can take a while to warm up but when he does he is a love. He loves riding in the car, cuddling on laps, pets and especially getting scratched under his chin.

Gizmo has had a hard time finding a forever home. He has been in 3 homes plus three foster homes in his short life and he needs somewhere to unpack his bags and settle down for life. He does OK with other dogs but tends to hang back away from the pack and clearly prefers to relate to people. He has lived with kids and seems to like them but he tends to be snappy when he is startled or scared so he will not be placed with children.
He does have a bit of an edge to him, so it is best if he went to a home that will work on this issue, someone who has worked with dogs, and willing to give the time and patience to help Gizmo back on track. His placement will be very selective, as he can not afford to be in one more wrong home.
Gizmo is in a very good home now, with a new sister Holly, and I know Carol will work hard to work with Gizzie to help him unpack his bags...residing in Port Orchard, WA

Whitney...What a love bug! What a joy! How could she be discarded to feed on garbage in the cold, left, unloved, to live or die on her own? Thankfully a big dog rescue person took her in and cared for her until she could come to our rescue. Though no dogs were allowed on this person’s bed, Whitney somehow loved her way onto it! She was too dear to ignore. Whitney IS willing to sleep on a doggy pillow by your bed, she’d MUCH rather share it, snuggling against you. She knows an empty lap is a waste, so she gladly fills it, leaning up against your chest, dreamy eyes and a happy smile. And she does indeed smile!

Gentle, sweet, with a fun loving soul. Whitney loves every person she meets. Her tail wags, her eyes sparkle, she so very glad to meet everyone! Playful, she loves toys, but is always polite. She is smart and eager to learn, and knows a few basic commands. Whitney has done well with other fosters, but she gets a tiny bit jealous in sharing her people with other dogs. Whitney would REALLY love to be your one special dog!

Whitney seems fully house broken, she uses a doggy door willingly. We do not know her past history fully so prefer to place her with a family having older children. Behavior with cats unknown. UTD on shots.
Whitney has a wonderful home, and they are in awe of this simply charming girl...happily residing in Seattle, WA
