SPCA St.John's We are an adoptions-focused agency helping homeless cats, dogs and small animals find happy beginnings on Newfoundland's Avalon Peninsula. The SPCA St.
(62)

John’s vision is communities where animals thrive with respect, love and wellbeing. Thank you for considering adoption! Visitation with adoptable pets will remain by appointment only for approved adopters. (Reducing our visitors to approved adopters has proven to reduce the stress of our residents allowing potential adopters a better opportunity to get to know their match and has significantly red

uced the spread of disease). If you see an animal you are interested in please send an email to [email protected] and we will forward you an application. If your application is approved we will contact you via email or telephone to book an appointment. The mission of the SPCA St. John’s is to provide leadership, education and a consistent voice on matters that promote and improve the welfare of animals. We care for and shelter companion animals in need, prevent cruelty and encourage responsible pet ownership.

We have two 3 month old cuties ready for homes!

California Roll is a male!
Dragon Roll is a female!

A little on the shy side, they came in to us as strays, we could only assume born outside! But they have come such a long way!! ❤️❤️

Would be absolutely great with other cats!
Calm dogs may be best or no dogs at all — as they are more on the timid side.

Meet the king of drools himself, Yoshi.

This boy is approx. 3 years old, his owner passed away and had nobody to care for him! He had a pretty severe case of stomatitis so we removed the majority of his teeth for him so he could live a full pain-free happy life! ❤️

⭐️ This man will be Foster to Adopt - he gets to come home with you while he waits for another vet check! He is still currently only eating wet food but he certainly doesn’t mind that at all! ❤️

Great with other cats! Would be ok with calm dogs!
He is a real smoocher! 💋

Everyone meet our handsome man Baxter!

This fella is 7 years old, his owner sadly passed away so he’s looking for a new place to call home. ❤️🐾

⭐️ Baxter will be Foster to Adopt — he will get to go home with you but has to wait to have a tooth pulled out! We will book this appointment for you!

He is extremely sweet. A very laid back man. He is used to being with an elderly person so a nice quiet home would be perfect for him! ❤️

We have an orange boy with a very funny underbite!

⭐️ Fletcher will have to undergo surgery to remove all of his upper teeth, therefore he will be “Foster to Adopt”. This allows Fletcher to go into his home, while still under our care, so he can get his much needed dental work but he can recover in his own home. We will book all the necessary appointments for him! ⭐️

Fletcher is super sweet! Estimated to be about 6 years old.
He’s your typical goofy orange, sharing one brain cell amongst all the other orange cats around the world, cuddly, don’t know when to stop getting under your legs and tripping you up when you walk, kinda kid. 🧡
He cannot go home with dogs!

Meet ol’ man Zeus!

Zeus is about 6 years old, a transfer from Happy Valley Goose Bay — a Labrador Special! We’re going to classify him as a Husky mix but we’re not really sure what he’s mixed with! He’s approx. 75 lbs, he has looooong legs and had to have some of his tail amputated so he’s got a stubby little tail now!

He’s got these beautiful icy blue eyes that would melt the icecaps!
He knows sit and BOTH paws! A very distinguished gentleman. His tail is still a little bit sore so we’d recommend not giving him full on love to his b***y or any type of wrestling while it is still in its healing stages. He loves squeaky balls and will chase them up and down the run all day, every day. He hasn’t quite learned how to give the toy back yet though!
“No give backs, only throw!” - Zeus.

He is a very happy, bouncy boy who takes treats nice, sits for his dinner and likes to sleep all tucked away like a little cinnamon roll in his kennel.
Zeus is approved to live with dogs and cats! We’d recommend older children however, as his tail is still quite sensitive at the moment and may take some time for him to warm up to butt scratches again.

Meet this sweet little dolly Maggie.
Maggie is 10 years old.
Surrendered.
Terrier Mix.
18 lbs.

Maggie is currently on some medications for a skin infection. She will be considered Foster to Adopt; this allows her to leave the shelter and get a head start on living her life with her new family while we wait for another health check by our vet. We will book this appointment for you!

This sweet senior lady doesn’t have a bad bone in her body. Throughout her assessment she was calm and collected. She did whine a little to get up onto our laps a few times; what can she say, she likes to be cuddled.
She enjoys giving kisses and really likes squeaker toys. She isn’t very active but she still wouldn’t mind going for a walk with you!
Good with cats & dogs.

This floppy eared lad is Pippen
Husky Mix from Labrador. “Labrador Special”.
6 months old.
35 lbs.

This boy is ready for his furever home! 🐾
He is a goofy, all in your face, please give me more love after you’ve already scratched me for 20 minutes straight, kinda kid! Would do well with an active family; he sure is silly and would really like to go for walks and car rides! He knows a bit of fetch already! Thats a very fun game! The only sensitivity he really had was his paws and he just laid his mouth over the assessors hands without applying any pressure. Good thing he’s food motivated! He is a very sweet boy that also likes his downtime and would cuddle up for a snooze. 💤
Can go home with dogs and cats!

Here’s this sweet little treat, Brownie. 🐾

2 years old.
Husky Mix! “Labrador Special”.
Roughly 50 lbs.

⭐️ This cutie is going to be a Foster to Adopt situation! He needs his neuter and potentially a surgery on his back leg. Our veterinarian will see him this Wednesday so we will know more details about it. This allows Brownie to start his new life at home with you while he waits for these surgeries! We will book all the appointments for you.

Aside from his little hobble, you would never know he needed any leg surgery at all! Still a bubbly, bouncy boy that will prance around and wiggly his b***y for the world to see. He can be a bit mouthy when riling him up during a game of tag or wrestling but he doesn’t apply any pressure! We noted that he likes squeaky toys, but only the squeaky part, the toy itself isn’t so much fun. He is a cuddly boy and would make any family happy for sure! ❤️

Can go home with cats and dogs!

Our super fun excitable friend here is Pip!
A Husky Mix from Labrador. “Labrador Special”
9 months old.
53 lbs.

This cutie is ready to steal hearts!
She is a very bouncy puppy, full of popcorn and butt wiggles! She would need an active family that can work off those husky sillies!

She loves to give kisses and bounce her body off of you when she’s playing! During a fun game of tag or wrestle, she can become mouthy on your arms and hands. She will also bark to get you to chase her! Keep in mind that she does have the puppy sillies and will require some work with her mouthiness and jumping up. But she is a super sweet lady, so cuddly and eager to learn new things!
Good with dogs and cats!

HAPPY NATIONAL DOG DAY EVERYONE!

Founded in 2004, this makes it a 20 year celebration! 🎉
All these dogs are AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION! How great would that be to adopt today, on the 20th year anniversary of National Dog Day? 🎉🐾

⭐️ Donate to the shelter! Monetary or items like dog kibble and wet food cans never go astray!

⭐️ Consider Volunteering! We love our volunteers and our dogs appreciate them too! Hang out with them and take them for a walk!
Here’s the link to fill out our a Volunteering form!: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScAVZgWWXjLy1bQNUo_ZSn0NMLMU0k-r35Y-RdT4ICz2MjMtQ/viewform

⭐️ Have you thought about being a foster for us? When we have some puppies that need socializing or a dog that’s waiting on a surgery that needs somewhere comfy to recover! We cover all the supplies costs!
Fill out the form here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScxmX0NJsLg1R0aUxUk_1focOT3N3siqc1rPAQ8kqmU2ggbuQ/viewform?c=0&w=1
