Honey is this week’s Summit Radio Pet of the Week from the BC SPCA in Castlegar.

Honey is a beautiful female spayed 1 year old Kangal Shepherd x Maremma who is as sweet as her name. She’s grown into a thoughtful, loyal, and capable young guardian with a gentle heart.
Honey is an excellent all-around farm dog and has been exposed to cats, chickens, turkeys, sheep, dogs, and children. She currently lives peacefully with two other farm dogs. While she can take a little time to warm up to new canine friends, she does well with proper introductions. Because of her guardian breed mix, we recommend a home with experience in livestock guardian or similar working breeds.
Honey came into SPCA care as a 6 mo old pup after showing signs of lameness. She was assessed at Selkirk Veterinary Hospital and diagnosed with early cruciate disease in her left knee. She was taken into foster care by Dr. Meyer, who later performed a TPLO surgery once she was ready. Honey has done wonderfully through her recovery and will be finishing her rehab in March. Long-term, she is expected to have approximately 90% function in her left rear leg, and her right leg is sound.
She is trained to respect yard perimeters, knows how to sit, and comes when called. Honey is intelligent, observant, and deeply devoted to her people. She would thrive in a calm, consistent home where she can continue her role as a guardian while also being a cherished companion.
Honey is now ready for her forever home-one that understands guardian breeds and will appreciate both her working ability and her sweet, soulful nature.
