??? spca doesn't euthanized their dogs, unless the dog is not adoptable. I'm pretty sure They just cycle the dog around other spca centers around bc.
Ps I use to be a volunteer at this specific shelter.
But anyway i hope she finds a good home. Very cute dog.

All huskys are a handful. They start howling whenever they want, so much energy in them 24/7/365.
But can be properly trained and once they are, they're awesome dogs to have.

Ps I use to be a volunteer at this specific shelter.
But anyway i hope she finds a good home. Very cute dog. | Some shelters have no kill policies, others don't, perhaps the status of this one has sadly changed.
I have no intention of hijacking this thread, but I would like everyone reading it to please learn from the present example. Animals are not fashion accessories, a working breed like a Husky will not conform well to a urban Vancouver lifestyle. Robin was bred to work, pulling dog sleds for hours a day with intense mental stimulation. Without sufficient exercise acting out is inevitable because she will have to much energy, just like the way a child would behave after being given sugar or caffeine. Before you buy a dog, research the breed and buy one you are capable of caring for, otherwise you may cost an innocent animal it's life.
I don't have tons of money to spare, I'm a student, but if someone adopts this dog I will donate a bit of money to help cover the adoption fee. I'd give her a home myself, if I could.

She's too cute! I've always wanted a husky just like her - such a shame I'm not allowed to have pets at my place.
I hope a loving family takes her!

I saw her yesterday when we visited the SPCA. She was pretty cute, sitting nicely, trying to gently gnaw on my gloves through the gate. Too bad I live in an apartment. 
We were there to check on a smaller dog but that dog was already in the adoption process.
We've been visiting pretty regularly lately, our place is pretty quiet ever since our dog passed away late last year.

pure bred dogs tend to have higher chance of health problems. So her being a cross-breed is a good thing =)
