Small Doggies Available for Adoption
BOGART
Humphrey Bogart or Bogie (as his foster home affectionately calls him) is a little 6lb guy was slated to be euthanized at a shelter in California and was rescued just in time. He arrived in Vancouver in December, and is now in a foster home here. He appears to be a Min pin/Daschund X, and is probably 1.5 - 2 years of age. He is neutered, wormed, and has had his DHLPP & rabies shots. He has the cutest one ear up, and one ear down look (and looks a bit like Bruce Lee, we think!) He was in the shelter for over a month, and being in the shelter made the little guy a bit fearful, but he has come a long way in his foster home. The more situations introduced to him, the more confident he'll become! Since he was a stray, he does like to have his own separate food dish from other dogs.
BABY BEAUX
Beaux is a 16 week old terrier/daschund X rescued from a high-kill shelter in California (and being fostered in Vancouver). He has long legs, so will be more terrier in height and may grow to be about 20lbs. He has had his DHLPP, Rabies, and Bordetella shots, has been neutered , microchipped and wormed. He is full of energy, and puppy playfulness, but once you hold him he just melts into your arms. He is a very smart little dog, and goes round in round in circles when he needs to potty, which is an amazing alert for training him! He is learning how to walk on a leash, and loves being outside.
GENERAL LEE
General Lee is about 12 lbs and appears to be a tibetan spaniel/chihuahua X..... but, he could be a combination of anything! He is probably just under 2 years of age, and has been neutered, microchipped, is up to date on his shots. He arrived at a California animal shelter with a metal plant stand pierced through his mouth. Although he was initially very fearful of being picked up, his Vancouver foster family can pick him up and he is very affectionate when he is carried.
Here is a note from his foster mom about General Lee:
"He is really a sweet little dog that needs boundaries and guidance. So, a dog-savvy owner would benefit Lee. He can sit, does his business outside, but prefers to do his business while out on a walk. He is an active dog, and would require a daily walk. He would be good for someone whom even jogs or hikes. When he gets excited he does this jump and spins and spins in circles! He would probably be amazing at playing frisbee! He loves his squeaky toys, and takes his favorite ones to bed with him. He has also taken to dragging a cuddle blanket, or my older bath robe to snuggle with. He will actually pull my bathrobe up onto the bed to sleep on, and has even brought it all the way downstairs. It is the cutest thing ever. General Lee absolutely loves to just fall asleep in my lap. When I hold him at these times, you can see the sweet innocent little dog that now feels safe, and loved. It has taken some work, but he is now ready to find his forever home. I recommend a home with no children, no cats as he does like to chase my cat whom runs from him, BUT he leaves my cat alone whom doesn't run from him. Someone whom is active, he does love playing with other dogs, and if a potential adopter has a dog, a meet & greet would be important to see if there is a match. He will need some time to adjust to a new home and family. We are probably the first humans he has ever trusted, and loved. I want the General Lee to be raised with all the love and patience possible."
