Lambchop - ADOPTION PENING

ADOPTION PENDING - 12/17/25 <br/><br/>Thank you for your interest in Lambchop. Applications are now closed, and we are moving forward with meet and greets with selected applicants. <br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/>Lambchop is a petite female Toy Poodle, around 1-2 years old, who is just beginning to learn about the world. She is a very shy and sensitive girl.<br/>With the people she sees regularly, Lambchop is starting to relax and show her sweet, gentle nature. She is learning that it’s okay to spend time with people, explore her surroundings, and even play with toys — though she’s still figuring that part out. Each day, she’s gaining a little more confidence and learning how to “be a dog.”<br/><br/>Training Needs<br/><br/>Leash manners – Walking on leash is very new for her and can feel scary. She is slowly being desensitized and making progress with gentle, patient handling.<br/><br/>Confidence-building – New situations, objects, and experiences will need to be introduced gradually and positively.<br/><br/>Ideal Home<br/><br/>Lambchop will need a calm, quiet home that understands shy dogs and is committed to continuing her confidence-building at her own pace. A home with another small, calm and dog would be best. She is fearful of larger dogs and energetic dogs. Lambchop likely will do best when she can take cues from another dog — especially when it comes to learning how to walk on leash and navigating new experiences.<br/><br/>Lambchop should not be placed in a home with children, as sudden movements and high activity levels cause her stress. Keeping her environment predictable and low-stimulation will help her continue to thrive. <br/><br/>Safety will be extremely important in her new home. When frightened, Lambchop may try to bolt, so a secure setup will be essential. Lambchop would be well-suited to apartment living. <br/><br/>Lambchop is a tender-hearted young dog who will truly flourish in the right home. If you have a calm household, a friendly small dog, and the patience to help her continue learning that the world can be safe and kind, Lambchop may be the perfect addition to your family.<br/><br/>She will be cat tested, and her listing will be updated once more information is available.<br/><br/>-----------------------------------------------------------------------------<br/>Ready to Apply?<br/><br/>If you would like to meet Lambchop, please download an application from our website at:<br/><br/>vancouver.ca/adoption-form <br/><br/>Then, email your complete application to: animal.shelter@vancouver.ca <br/><br/>If your application is approved, we will contact you to arrange a meet and greet.<br/><br/>-----------------------------------------------------------------------------<br/>All adult dogs at Animal Services have veterinary health checks, and are spayed or neutered, vaccinated, dewormed and defleaed (if necessary) before going to their new homes. <br/><br/>Children: No <br/>Cats: Unknown<br/>Dogs: Yes- small dogs only<br/>Training Needs: Potty and Leash Training<br/>Adoption Fee: $374<br/><br/>If you live in the City of Vancouver, you will also need to purchase a dog licence.<br/><br/>For more information on our adoption process, go to vancouver.ca/adopt
