A Home for Archie

Archie is a sweet and affectionate 7 year old Staffordshire Bull Terrier who unfortunately has severe allergies and a thyroid condition.  He has lots of energy and loves his toys and all the attention you can give. When he first came to the Shelter,  he had extreme hair loss but thanks to the staff his hair has grown back and he’s more handsome than ever! Because of his conditions he is on a special diet and a daily medication. The cost for meds works out to only about $13.50 a month and the specialty food is about $100 a bag (and he eats about a bag a month). He also requires a blood test about every 6 months just to make sure the pills are keeping him where he needs to be.

To help him get adopted, the SPCA is offering this “going home package” to his new family:

-one bottle of meds (120 pills)
-baths for 1-2 months (1 time per week) at a designated groomer (owner responsible for drop off and pick up)
-a bag of specialty food
-leash & collar
-this amazing picture he painted

He is an absolute sweetheart and really deserves a forever home that can care for him properly. He does well  with other dogs and could do OK with cats, if introduced correctly. He tends to get very excited when he sees cats and am not exactly sure how to play with them correctly. He will just need some guidance. If he sound like a good fit for you, please call the Shelter and make an appointment.  For more information or if you have more questions please call and inquire. 1.306.773.1806.

Until he is adopted, we are also continuing with Archie’s Go Fund Me to help cover his extra costs while with us. Donations will be used toward Archie’s costs and anything over what we need for Archie will go into our Hope Fund to help fund future life-saving pet treatments and care. Donations will receive a tax receipt. To donate, look up our “Aid for Archie” campaign on GO FUND ME, or donate by EFT to treasurer@spcaswiftcurrent.com (indicate donation for Archie) or by cheque to Swift Current SPCA, Box 1163, Swift Current, S9H 3X3 (indicate “Archie” on cheque).
