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

VERNON- They call her Maggie, or “Waggie Maggie” for obvious reasons.

This pug cross will greet you with full body wags Vernon SPCA says in a media release.

Maggie is described as happy and easy going. She loves to play with squeaky toys and can get a bit over-excited with toys.

She may not be suitable with small children or cats.

She is smart and eager to please. She also loves to learn and earn treats.

Maggie tends to be a bit bossy with other dogs and will require guardians who can provide slow and cautious introductions to new animals.

For more information about Maggie contact the staff at the Vernon SPCA. Her animal ID number is 463661.

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