Meet Stanley!

This big boy came to us after uncertain circumstances in his past. He has a goofy personality and enjoys spending time in the yard, going for walks, and being with his people.

Stanley is a strong boy who will need a family that can confidently manage his size and continue working on his manners. Like many giant breeds, he doesn’t always realize just how big he is and will benefit from ongoing training and guidance.

When Stanley arrived in our care, he was struggling with matted fur. After a much-needed haircut and brush, he’s feeling much more comfortable. His future family will need to be committed to regular grooming to keep his coat healthy and looking its best.

Stanley is not the biggest fan of other dogs and would likely do best as the only pet in the home. Stanley has been through some big life changes, and can understandable feel a bit anxious a times. He is looking for a family that will take things at his pace and give him the structure, care, and companionship he deserves.

Do you think you could be Stanley’s person? Here are some ways to find out:

1.) Visit our centre to meet this pet during adoption viewings Friday to Wednesday 12pm to 5pm, learn more about their ideal match, and apply to adopt in person; or
2.)Submit an online application adopt.spca.bc.ca and staff will contact the first suitable adopter to set-up a visit! Kindly note that due to the high number of applications and the availability of walk-in adoptions an online applicant would have to be available to come in for a meet within 24 hrs.
*Side note: the more you add to your application about you and what you are looking for in a canine companion, the better we can match animals with adopters!
