Gracie was dropped off in the parking lot of the Blaimore Kanata Inn on December 30, 2023.  Gracie has infection in both ears and we have determined she has a food allergy that we are working on.  Gracie will not be ready for adoption for quite some time.  She is starting to show some small improvement but it will definitely be a very slow process for her.  Such a lovely little lady to have been treated so badly.

UPDATE: March 14, 2024:  We now have Gracie's food allergy under control and she is feeling much better.  We also have her ears on the mend and hope the infection will be cleared up very soon - so close.  Gracie's personality is finally showing through - she is a happy dog and finding that it is fun to play and talk and just be content with her life now.  She is outgoing and affectionate and looking for a good home where she can be cared for properly and loved and happy!!  Gracie gets along with the dogs at the shelter and any who pass by.  She is great with adults and kids.  On a few vet trips, Gracie had to share the vehicle with a cat on occasion and didn't really mind that she had a feline travel companion.  From her reaction, we feel she would be just fine with a cat or two in her new home.  All around, a great little girl just looking for love and a new home!

As noted in RG's post (RB's sister), they came to the CNP SPCA with many health issues that needed to be addressed before they were put up for adoption.  A nasty introduction to a porcupine was the major concern for both of them.  Many recurring abscesses and infections were dealt with over the past couple of months but now we are reasonably confident that we have their health under control.

RB is an energetic and boisterous little boy!  Full of fun and mischief.  He has been dubbed "Chaos" by the many people who walk past the SPCA visiting with him.  RB is not an aggressive dog but he is definitely full of life!!  Both he and his sister seem to get along with other dogs (we don't know about cats).

RB has an endearing disposition and seems willing to please.  You can tell he is trying his best to be a good companion.  He is shy on first meeting with a new person but within a very short time he will be trying to get into your lap and give you as many kisses he can!!  Anyone considering adopting RB will have to be firm and consistent in his training but with perseverance we are sure you will have a lovable and affectionate companion.

RG and her brother came to the CNP SPCA suffering from results of an introduction to a porcupine as well as with a few other health concerns.  To date, we have been addressing these issues (quills causing recurring abscesses and infections mostly) and now finally feel reasonably comfortable they are in the clear and ready for adoption.

With a quiet sweet personality, RG is just looking for love and affection and returns any she receives ten-fold.  Unfortunately, RG had so many quills in her left leg, for so long, that her muscles atrophied.  With patience and a regime of mild exercise, we have been advised by our Vet Clinic she should recover most if not all the strength in that leg.  Anyone considering adopting RG will have to take it slow in helping her recover though.  Short controlled walks, no rough play or running/jumping for quite a while.
