Panda

I can go to a home with:
Dogs: Well-Matched Cats: Possible, well-matched
Children: Teenagers and older, well-matched Meet Panda! This magnificent fellow came to us when his previous owner realized they could not provide the necessary care for a young, boisterous, intelligent dog.

He was sadly spending a lot of time in their small yard, bored and lonely.

We are grateful they trusted us to take over his care and find him a new home.

Panda is a riot.

He loves to play, play, play! He enjoys a good game of fetch, but doesn’t promise to bring it back, so you might need to have a few toys in your back pocket! Panda has a good heart, but he needs a patient, dedicated family to help him learn how to be the best boy – in a humane, force-free manner, of course.

We are recommending a home with no small children, due to his roughhouse style (he thinks it’s great fun to pretend-attack your shoes when you walk, and loves to jump up to say hi up-close and personal).

Panda would love a family that can take him on fun neighbourhood adventures.

We have been told that he gets car-sick, so road trips aren’t in his immediate future.

However, if that is something important to you, we suggest a very gradual desensitization program with the guidance of your veterinarian and/or a force-free trainer.

Panda has shown great promise with the other dogs we have at the shelter.

We are hopeful that he can share a home with a well-matched dog buddy.

Reportedly, he played with the family cat without issue, so a dog-savvy cat friend could be in his cards.

Panda is 1 year, 9 months old.

He is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and has received parasite prevention treatment.

His adoption fee is $350 + tax.

If you are interested in meeting Panda, the first step is to submit an adoption application form.

This allows our care team to have an in-depth conversation with you prior to setting up a meeting.

Here is the form:
