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

PENTICTON – This dog came to the Vernon SPCA from a large rural property with many other dogs.

Zen has never lived in a home, a media release says.

That being said he loves attention and getting lots of pets.

He can be shy with strangers, but he warms up quickly.

Because of his history Zen may display resource guarding over food or toys. This was necessary for his survival before.

Zen is looking for a patient home with lots of love to give.

For more information about Zen contact the staff at the Vernon SPCA. His animal ID number is 455180.

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