Bea (top) is an adorable, 6 month old, spayed Terrier mix. Bea LOVES life and absolutely LOVES, LOVES to play with other dogs. Bea weighs 11 lbs and is best suited for an adult home or a home with older kids.
Benny is a DOLL and loves affection. He was SO matted when he was rescued off a reserve near Terrace, BC he was in great discomfort and it was painful for him to walk. Benny is in a foster home in North Vancouver learning his house manners. Benny is a poodle/terrier cross about 2 to 3 years old. He weighs 17 lbs.
A HUGE Thank You to Northern Animal Rescue Alliance (NARA) for rescuing these two sweethearts.

Wonderful, Charming Thor needs our help! This young boy needs surgery! It was discovered today that Thor has a bad hip and will need surgery to repair it and relieve his pain. He is only 12 mths old and is such a lovely boy. Please help us help Thor by donating towards his vet bills. We have included Thor’s latest x-ray where it clearly shows what is causing him discomfort.
We expect Thor’s vet bill to exceed $7000 if a hip replacement is needed however, we are looking into TPO as a option. Some may ask if he is worth all this expense and YES he is. We have the ability to help make Thor pain free and we are asking for your help. Any donation is appreciated. You can also make a donation to the vet directly.
Thor came to Cross Our Paws via NARA (Northern Animal Rescue Alliance)in Terrace and we will be working together with NARA to raise funds. He was living with a homeless person, was not exercised and spent most of his time in a crate. Thor LOVES everyone!

May 22nd, 2013; YAHOOOOO….Atka has an adoption pending!!! More to follow soon!
ATKA is very sweet 35 lb Shepherd/Malamute cross puppy about 5 to 6 mths old. We are looking for experienced owners that already have another confident dog for Atka to learn from. Atka can be shy as an only dog but since being placed in foster care with two other balanced dogs she is thriving like never before. Atka came to us from a shelter in Vancouver that was transferred from a shelter near Yellow Knife where her and her sister were found homeless. She and her sister arrived in Vancouver almost 8 weeks ago. Atka’s sister got a home fairly quickly but Atka needed time to learn to trust people and strangers. Atka is now ready to leave the nest. Atka is currently on a raw diet and we would like to see that she continue on this diet if at all possible. She has done so well on it and the benefits to her health have been amazing. Atka is already spayed, vaccinated, dewormed and micro-chipped. She is house-trained but will need to the odd reminder when moving to a new home. Atka met several cats today and could care less if they are in the room. This dog keeps getting BETTER and BETTER thanks to her wonderful, patient foster home. If you are interested in Atka and can provide the type of home we want for her please visit our website and download our adoption questionnaire and email it back to crossourpaws@yahoo.ca.
