BEAU
2 year old male Cane Corso
This playful, energetic guy is extremely attentive to learn commands, very responsive and smart. He is extremely treat motivated especially when learning new tricks. He already knows wait, sit, down, paw, and release! Beau’s favorite things are chewing his bones, fetch, playing with large ropes, tug and hide and seek.
Weighing in at 130lbs, this gentle giant has never displayed aggressive tendancies towards other dogs, he just hasn't had the chance to make many canine friends - this is something his trainer is willing to help support. He lives with an older cat and would do ok with proper introduction.
Beau has lived in a busy and active home with five kids ranging from 9-19. He really loves his people and does best when he has all his needs met prior to being left unattended for extended periods of time. He is very respectful in the home and has not been destructive.
Beau does need work with his leash manners and recall. He is looking for a special someone to help him with these areas of improvement, and we would support him and his adopter with training sessions for his leash work. Must haves for this big boy are a confident handler, a fully fenced yard, and lots of love to give him!
Beau is neutered with updated vaccines, deworming and a microchip. Vet cost recovery to adopt is $350. He is currently located in Vernon but available to move within the Okanagan. To arrange a meet with Beau, please call Shannon at 778-214-7489.

BELLE
1 year old female cat
Our easy going, social and lovable Belle is ready for a new home! Belle is a small, all black cat with wonderful yellow eyes that remind us of mirabelles, hence her name. As we got her to foster, she was timid like a fawn but we managed to socialize her. She likes to live independently but also has gotten attached to one person who takes care of her. And with that person, she will be very comfortable and enjoys to follow to figure out what`s happening. She also loves to explore, climb, chase toys or gallop like a little horse – she really enjoys her cat life. She loves to be pet and to get neck scratches, she is not yet used to being carried, but this is also improving step by step. If you are interested in a vivid and happy kitty with energy and tenderness, don’t hesitate to have a look on her! Fixed, Vaccinated, Microchipped. Contact Margaux 236-838-0546 in Coldstream to meet and apply. Vet cost recovery to adopt $150.

JELLY BEAN
9 years young female cat
Jelly Bean (JB) came into OHS care when she was found outside on her own in Kelowna and sadly no one has claimed her. She is now ready and willing to be adopted to live a safe and happy life as an indoor cat. She is approximately 9 years old but at times acts like a kitten. She enjoys curling up on the couch beside you. JB is quick to purr and loves Temptations. She does have a sensitive stomach so will have to be on gastro food. She does not like dogs and suggest that she be an only cat household. She may get along with other cats but would have to be introduced slowly and carefully.
She is a good little girl who just wants to be loved, petted and given all the attention she deserves. JB is fixed, vaccinated and microchipped. If you would like to meet sweet Jelly Bean, please contact her foster Margot at (778) 363-5078 in Peachland to set up a meet and greet. Vet cost recovery to adopt is $75

BLACK DYNAMITE
9 year old female cat.
Black Dynamite, affectionately called Dyna, is a sweet cat who enjoys eating, napping, splashing in water, and eating some more. She loves looking at the birds outside and playing “camouflage” on any item of black clothing. She can be quite chatty and will let you know when she wants fresh water or another helping of food. She is fairly independent and likes her space but enjoys spending time with her humans. She is the perfect cat for someone who needs a fur friend who isn’t super high maintenance. She is not a fan of small children (teenagers are fine) and would be best suited for a home with no other pets as she is particular about having her own space. She has such a good heart and her family of 9 years would love to receive occasional updates from her new humans as they will miss her dearly. Contact Sydney in Kelowna 2508701817. Vet cost recovery $100.

AURORA
7.5 month old female kitten
Introducing Aurora, a gentle soul looking for a calm and loving forever home! This lovely lady may be a bit reserved, but she has a heart full of sweetness just waiting to shine. While she may take her time to warm up to new people, she has already formed a special bond with her foster mom and enjoys quiet moments filled with affection.
Aurora loves the company of her furry cat friends and can often be found nestled in cozy spots, enjoying peaceful snuggles. She appreciates a serene environment where she can feel safe and secure. With a little patience and understanding, we believe she’ll flourish in a gentle and loving home.
If you're looking for a sweet companion who thrives in a calm setting and craves warmth and affection, Aurora might just be the perfect match for you! Come meet this beautiful girl and let her purr her way into your heart! Aurora is spayed, microchipped, vaccinated and dewormed. Vet cost recovery to adopt $200.

BORIS
6-7 month old Staffy X male dog
Seeking a foster or foster to adopt for this handsome, low key guy. Boris is a super sweet, calm and affectionate pup. He enjoys car rides and travels well. Some of Boris’s favorite things are playtime, chew toys, being with his people, and playing with his sister. Boris is house trained and good in a kennel - he will sometimes let out little whines to remind you that he’s there.
Boris is still learning and will need a foster who can work with him on his leash manners. Boris loves to dig and can be destructive in a yard as he is not easily distracted once he gets his paws going. Boris would love a fenced yard to play in!
Given his size, Boris would do well in a home with adults or a family with dog-savvy kids aged 10+. He is very submissive when playing with his sister, so he would likely do well with a proper introduction with another balanced dog in the home. We are not sure how Boris would do around cats as he hasn’t met one yet. He will be neutered, vaccinated, dewormed and microchipped prior to foster placement.
For more information or to arrange a meeting with Boris, please contact Shannon at 778-214-7489.

MAC
1 year old male Bull Terrier X dog
This young pup loves to give hugs and kisses, a whole 35 lbs of puppy love! Mac is very obedient, loves car rides, bones and spending time with his people. He loves learning new tricks, especially if you have treats, he takes them very gently. Mac loves to cuddle in bed if there is room but also sleeps well in his own bed on the floor. He is working on recall and does well with his current foster, must be those big ears!
He easily gets excited and is a strong boy so a home with kids age 8+ would be ideal. He lives with big and small dogs and could potentially join a home with other canine friends following a proper introduction. He has no experience with cats. Mac is still learning to walk on the leash without pulling and will need someone who can continue to work with him. He will benefit from a large fenced yard, and an adopter who is willing to continue his training.
Mac is neutered and is up to date with his vaccinations, dewormer and microchip. Vet cost recovery to adopt is $350. He is located in the Vernon area but can travel within the Okanagan area. If you have any questions or would like to meet Mac please call Shannon at 778-214-7489.

MOOSE
6 year old male Shar Pei x Lab dog
Hi, I’m Moose! I’m a low energy guy and I’m very sweet and affectionate. I love walks, naps, and being home in my safe space with my people. I don’t resource guard, and I’m happy to share my toys and treats with you. If you’re looking for a great companion dog who will always be by your side for pats and cuddles, look no further!
Meeting strangers and new things is hard for me. I have a strong prey drive and guard dog tendencies, but I am working on it. I’ve been in school with Polite Paws learning about how to meet new people and dogs politely. I’m looking for a forever person who can continue my training during my transition to help me learn that the world is not scary.
I much prefer my home environment to be predictable. I'm a bit of an antisocial guy and do better in small family units with no kids or other pets, just us! When I do meet new people, it’s important that we are introduced properly so I know that they are safe. I know this takes a little extra time and patience, but I promise I’ll make up for it by being the best friend you’ve ever had!
I am neutered, up to date with vaccines, deworming and microchip. If you would like more information about me, please contact Shannon at 778-214-7489.

BELLA
7 year old female dog Lab Rottweiler X
A few of Bella's favorite things are treats, her dino squeaky toy, a large fenced yard, and her Kong stuffed with peanut butter.
Bella enjoys socializing at the dog park, sleeping at the foot of the bed, and playing fetch. She loves attention from her people and will sometimes give a cute gentle nudge for pets. She loves her people so much she will be your shadow in the house moving room to room with you.
She is an energetic girl and would do well with a younger dog in the home, with a proper introduction. When she wants to play, she will sometimes use her voice to get her canine friends' attention. She would also be content being your one and only. She’s used to being without kitties. She’ll play well with other dogs at the park, but will want you to herself for all the love at home.
Bella likes walking and hiking and is coming along well with leash training. She would thrive in an environment that is consistent, providing the daily exercise and love that she needs!
Bella is spayed, vaccinated, dewormed and microchipped, and ready to find her forever home. Please contact Romany at 250-862-1794 to arrange a meet and greet with Bella, who is in foster in Kelowna. Vet cost recovery to adopt is $200.

He was rescued from the streets in Vernon earlier this year, in desperate need of medical care for his teeth and nails, and is now perfectly healthy, happy and hoppy! Rupert loves to explore his space and be picked up and pet for long periods of time.

Seeking a foster or foster to adopt for Bean. Bean is a very good girl and has everything you need in a new best friend.

She has been cared for by many people in her life, and would be an excellent addition to a family with lots of people to love on her.

Bean used to live in a home with cats, but hasn’t seen one in a while, so she would need a proper re-introduction. She is also great with other dogs.
