Straight Outta Rescue Society has helped several of the dogs from Vancouver Animal Services find homes!

They are hoping to help Denali too!
To take her in to their program and a foster home! 💛

As much as staff and volunteers do to enrich the lives of the animals in their care; shelters are not homes.

Denali has been waiting after the sudden loss of her owner for someone to take her home! 😔

If you can foster or are looking to adopt please reach out to the shelter or Straight Outta Rescue Society 💜

Foster home desperately needed for this big gorgeous gal💕

Well we’ve been visiting with our amazing team at the Vancouver Animal Shelter lately and we have another really sweet gal we’d love to help get into a loving warm bed🩷

Meet Denali she has been sitting for over three mths with no interest.

Denali came to our friends at VAS after her person sadly and very suddenly passed away. She was unsure where she was, where her person was and what would be in store for her next…😔

After a few days of waiting for her person and understandable confusion she realized she was safe.
Her worried eyes got brighter, her tail got waggier and her smile bigger each day. 💗

Denali is a solid girl whose appearance may be deceivingly tough. She is a big, mushy, playful, goofy, happy girl tho!
Give her a minute to suss you out.
Speak to her with a kind voice.
Compliment her stunning brindled coat.
She’s ready to meet you.
Offer her a snack and she’s all yours.
Give her a ball or a toy and see her playful side appear.
Then, take her out for a walk for some one on one time. She will win your heart and offer you hers💜
Denali has been dog neutral and is not a vocal dog, her temperament is truly loving calm and oh so silly!!

Denali has a whole lotta love to give and a big heart wanting to be filled with love again❤️

Sunset is one of so many dogs found in Vancouver that no one came for. She started her search for a new home at Vancouver Animal Services and stole every heart she met there!😍

HugABull Advocacy & Rescue Society took her in to their rescue program and a foster home. We are so thankful for them and the care they give so many!

Sunset is now ready to find her adoptive home!

Please share her and/or reach out to HugABull Advocacy & Rescue Society via this shared post or their website for more information!

Thank you again HugABull Advocacy & Rescue Society!
We love you Sunset!!

This is Aspen.She was found running around a park in Vancouver. No ID, no lost report, no one came for her. The first photo in this reel was taken on her second day at the shelter. It is the only photo that wasn’t blurred by her constant pacing. She spent the first few days searching for a way to get away when in the play yards. Even with staff or volunteers in the play yard with her, she wasn’t able to settle. It seemed as though she did not know what outside was…every sight and sound was overwhelming 💗In her kennel run she is much calmer. Initially a bit shy but not overly stressed. She warms up quickly and is very interested in getting to know everyone at the shelter. She came in with several matts and has been fine having them tended to. She really enjoys a good butt skritch and gives little gentle kisses too 💛Each day she has become more comfortable outside. Not unattended, that is going to take some time. Or may never be something she is comfortable with. With a trusty human by her side she is becoming, slowly; more comfortable in the play yards. As you can see in her reel here! This a couple days in a row, short visits to the yard, at her pace. Seeing her come to people instead of pacing, seek attention and take treats outdoors is wonderful 🙌Aspen may have never touched grass before, seen a truck, traffic or pedestrians pass by. She is much more comfortable on concrete, indoors. She even does zoomies in her kennel! But outdoors she requires guidance, patience and to go at her pace. Lots of praise, encouragement and support is what this beautiful gal is looking for.👏It has been, and continues to be a countdown for her comfort level outdoors in the big world. But she’ll get there with the right person/people by her side 💕So far Aspen ignores the other dogs but may benefit from a confident and patient K9 friend. As we get to know her better we will have a better idea of her ideal home scenario. In the meantime, she’ll be waiting for a patient and kind soul to see her and the potential she has to be a very best friend 🐾❤️🐾Please reach out by email if you would like to know more about Aspen ~ mailto:[email protected]

Straight Outta Rescue Society has helped several of the dogs from Vancouver Animal Services find homes!

They are hoping to help Minnie too! To take her in to their program and a foster home! Somewhere she can get some rest, cuddles, go for car rides, explore and enjoy the comforts and care of a home ~ she is all dressed up and ready to go 💛

As much as staff and volunteers do to enrich the lives of the animals in their care; shelters are not homes.
Minnie has been waiting too long for someone to take her home! 😔

If you can foster or are looking to adopt please reach out to the shelter or Straight Outta Rescue Society 💜

Please share foster needed!!
We’d love to help Mini get out of the shelter but we are full up with no one available.

Minnie is so much fun and her main goal in life is making you laugh!

Minnie has been at the shelter for several months now and it is taking a toll on her. Her heart is fullest when around kind and caring people , cuddling and crawling into laps. She desperately wants a full time person or people to share her big heart and huge sense of humor with 💗

One of our volunteers recently took her to her apartment for a sleepover. And did Minnie ever sleep!!
It can be so difficult to sleep at the shelter and sleep is so important! For all of us! Minnie is reportedly a wonderful sleeping companion. She doesn’t snore or steal all the covers. She is happy to sleep in and really enjoyed morning cuddle time. As did our volunteer!💝

Minnie really needed some one on one time and attention. She loved her sleepover and was an exemplary guest….

Minnie is housebroken.
Slept thru the night.
Did not try to drink the morning coffee!
Or beg at the table.
She entertained herself while our volunteer got ready for her day.
After a potty break pre-coffee and breakfast of course.
Played with toys or napped in bed til it was time to really start the day.
Minnie is great in the car and jumps right in ready to go.🚗

Minnie really puts her trust in you once she knows you.
She looks to you for guidance, reassurance in new situations and is eager to please. Minnie looks to her person in new or stressful situations for reassurance.
She will actually nudge you with her nose when she feels overwhelmed. Or needs extra guidance. 💗

She just needs to meet her person or people!

Minnie prefers human companionship to animal friends in her living space.
We don’t think she met many other animals before coming to us. She will bark at other dogs if they bark at her. She has been working on that and is doing really well with redirection and positive reinforcement! She can pull on leash, but, again is working on that and doing well!

Meisha and JoJo 💕

They were dropped off to the shelter together and no one came to claim them. They were initially understandably unsure of what the heck was happening. But have since made themselves right at home at the shelter. 💗

Both of these cuties are lovely companions. To each other and will be to whoever opens their heart and home to them too. Sometimes they share a bed, sometimes they like their own space. They enjoy going on walks together and keep a good pace! They are definitely used to having each other around! 👫🏽

JoJo likes the view from a lap or close to her people best. Meisha is a bit more independent but will come to you for butt skritches and attention too! 🫶🏼

If you are looking for a sweet couple to share your life with these two are in!
And, ready to move in! 🧳

Canuck gave himself end everyone who loves him a big scare last week! He ended up in emergency surgery to have a piece of a ball he accidentally ingested removed!
It was blocking his small intestine and found just in time 😭Thankfully he is doing well and healing in the comforts of a caring foster home!💗The foster home sent this update to help find him the forever home he is so ready for! -Playful, athletic, loves fetch. Will thrive in an active family who can take him for walks and play with him every day.-Sweet and gentle personality. Loves hugs and cuddles.-Intelligent and fun to train.-Loyal and ready to connect with a family. He loves it when everyone’s home and the “pack” is all together.-Quiet, rarely barks.-House trained and can use a doggie door.-Doesn’t chew anything he’s not supposed to in the house, i.e. our slippers and furniture are safe.-Quiet in the car, doesn’t get car sick.-Polite on leash and well mannered on walks. Heels and listens well.-Social with people. (We’ve noticed he’s more cautious around men than women and can be a little shy in new environments, but he overcomes it well.)-No aggression or resource guarding.-No separation anxiety; fine to be left alone loose in the house. So far, we’ve left him for 1-2 hours and he just rests while we’re gone.-Energy level is totally manageable – I’d say medium. Between walks/playtime, he’s happy to chill.Improvement: He is a much calmer dog outside of the shelter environment. He’s been very well mannered when meeting new people…More about Canuck and shelter details here ~ https://www.petfinder.com/dog/canuck-update-70954377/bc/vancouver/city-of-vancouver-animal-services-bc08/ thanks to his foster parents for taking him in to your care!

This sweet gal is originally from Vancouver Animal Services! 😍

The Farm took her in to their care and a foster home. Think she is pretty happy about that!

She is ready for adoption with The Farm now!

Thank you to her foster home and The Farm for taking Dixie, now Lima in to your care. 💓

This beautiful pup is still waiting for a home. Lima is about 18 months old and the perfect size (about 55lbs). She’s an active, energetic girl but also knows how to relax and curl up on the couch for some down time.
Lima loves being with her people and she’s good with other dogs as well as cats.
She needs a little more work on leash walking, but she is going to be an amazing companion for an active person or family.

Canuck is recovering from an obstruction surgery in a foster home ❤️‍🩹

He went in to a foster home last week; finally getting the break from the shelter he so badly needed.
A few days in his foster people contacted the shelter as he was lethargic and seemed unwell.
Canuck was rushed to the vets where an xray found something blocking his small intestines.😭

Thank goodness everyone acted so quickly and he had a successful surgery. 💗

Canuck was found as a stray several months ago in Vancouver. He was just a puppy and has spent almost half his young life in a shelter. He is estimated to be around a year old now.🐾

Canuck has been thru enough and would love to never see a shelter again! Unless visiting all the staff and volunteers who love him! 🫶🏼

Once recovered from surgery he will be more than ready for a transition in to a forever home.
Canuck is a joyful, young boy who wants people to share in his love of life!
He is a polite house guest. Enjoys lounging around after a good outing! An outing that could be just about anything! He is a pleasure to walk on leash, has had several dog friends and is a pretty social guy. 🤗

Canuck, we have now unfortunately found out, cannot be left unsupervised with toys or balls or sticks etc. He loves all those things but swallowed something and we don’t ever want to have that happen again. He really scared us all, and himself!

Please reach out if you would like more information, an adoption application or to set up a meet with Canuck! He is a truly wonderful dog and great companion 🐾❤️🐾

Minnie will fill your days with laughter and rolling around! Anything to get attention and a smile outta her people 🥰

Minnie is a sensitive, young soul who likely hasn’t experienced much in her little life.
She is spayed, housebroken, polite, eager to please, great in the car and treat motivated.
She adores affection and attention once she knows you.
She may start of shy and a little unsure with new people. But once she knows you; she is all about you!😍

Minnie looks to her person in new situations for reassurance.
She will actually nudge you with her nose when she feels overwhelmed. Or needs extra guidance. 💗

Minnie loves toys and playing. Enjoys walks and seeking out new smells. She also really likes to chill out and cuddle!❤️

Minnie needs a home to thrive in.
She craves and wants all the love, cuddles and snuggles she can get. Her truest passion is people to bond with and be with 💝

We recently discovered that Minnie is afraid of walking on hardwood or tiled flooring. Poor girl had no idea what that type of surface was or what would happen if she walked on it. Area rugs, carpet, yoga mats are way less scary to walk on! And, of course, grass! Grass is the bestest! Especially for rolling 🤗

Vet clinics are also something Minnie is afraid of. They are even scarier than hardwood floors to her. Lots of visits for practice with lots of treats and no treatments should help with that fear. 🩺

Find out more about Minnie here and please share her info to help her find her home or go meet her yourself! 🐾❤️🐾

Canuck came to the shelter in March as a stray puppy. No one came for him. He has now lived almost half of his young life at the shelter😢

Canuck needs out of the shelter environment to thrive.
He is overstimulated, overwhelmed and, just OVER shelter life! It is breaking hearts to see him there day after day with no interest 😩

Canuck is such a joyous guy when away from the shelter. Away from the noise, distractions and getting one on one attention.
He will be the best companion with continued positive reinforcement training. Work with him and you will have the best friend.
He is a wonderful, humorous, playful and friendly dog!
Canuck just needs someone to see all he has to offer and take him home 🏠

Please check out his Petfinder link to find out more about him:

Animal Services Adoptable ~ Minnie ~

Of course you’d think this stunning gal was a model!
Just look at her! Those dreamy eyes, her physique and, the posing! 📸

Minnie works hard to keep her athletic body and active mind in finest form. She loves to run, play, explore and is going to be best with people who enjoy the same.🏃‍♀️

Take this girl somewhere calm and quiet and all she will want to do is enjoy your company.
Sit or lie with you.
Or snuggle.
Or roll around in the grass.
Simply enjoying the breeze without excitement or distraction is pretty special with her by your side🐞

Minnie is a sensitive soul who prefers solitude to crowds. She’d rather be your constant companion and the center of your attention and affections. Sharing her people with other animals does not interest her. She would rather spend time with her favorite people than anything 💝

Minnie has been at the shelter for a few months now and it is taking a toll on her.
The shelters are so full it makes providing all the dogs needs impossible. Despite the efforts of staff and volunteers. A shelter is not a home.😔

Minnie needs a home to thrive in.
She craves and wants all the love, cuddles and snuggles she can get. Her truest passion is people to bond with and be with ❤️

Find out more about Minnie here and please share her info to help her find her home or go meet her yourself! 🐾❤️🐾
