Looking for a forever home; Vernon SPCA pet of the week

VERNON – Rich was brought to the SPCA as a stray.

He is shy and branch manager Chelsea Taylor at the B.C. SPCA shelter in Vernon says it may take him some time to gain trust. 

Though he is a bit fearful, Rich has good manners and keeps his kennel clean. Taylor says his ideal home would be a quiet and patient household, and he may not get along with kids very well. 

For more information about Rich contact the staff at the Penticton SPCA. His animal ID number is 450873.

Visit the shelter's webpage for more information such as location, adoption fees and hours of operation.
