Fosters

The dogs featured on this page are not yet ready for adoption. They are currently receiving some much needed TLC in loving foster homes where they are provided with the medical care and/or training that they require. Sponsoring one of these needy dogs would be welcomed and greatly appreciated!

Stuart was surrendered because his family could not afford to provide him with the medical care that he needed. He was quite obese and his liver was failing. He needed some dental work, but he was in such poor health that surgery would be too risky. After spending some time in a loving foster home, eating a healthy diet and receiving regular exercise, Stuart's overall health had improved significantly. He had shed some of the extra pounds and his liver enzymes had returned to normal range.

Stuart was well enough to proceed with surgery, so he headed over to Vancouver to see the wonderful folks at West Coast Veterinary Dental Services. He had surgery to widen his nasal passages, shorten his elongated soft palate and provide him with the dental care that he needed. Stuart recovered well following his surgery and his breathing is much easier now. He subsequently developed a urinary tract infection, probably related to crystals that were forming in his urine. He has been treated with antibiotics and we will be making the appropriate changes to his diet in order to prevent more urinary crystals from forming in the future. Once Stuart has been given a clean bill of health, his foster mom plans to adopt him permanently! YAY Stuart!

***Stuart has an adoption pending***

Frankie was originally a stray who came into our care by way of a local animal control facility. He was extremely stressed in the busy shelter environment and he wasn't coping very well - he had completely shut down. He is currently spending some time in a loving foster home while we get to know him better. He has been neutered, tattooed, micro-chipped, updated on his vaccinations and his teeth have been buffed and polished. Frankie has some fear issues, so we are working on confidence building, socialization and desensitization. He will be ready for adoption soon.

Ellie is now a permanent foster.
