NANAIMO — Each week we feature animals currently awaiting adoption at the Nanaimo SPCA.

Thankfully there are no animals currently in care, so we’re taking a look at animals which were adopted and have found their forever homes.

Watson is a proud graduate of the SPCA.

His owners say the senior dog shows puppies aren’t the only ones who can be cute and handsome.

“He has never found a lap he didn’t like, or passed up a meal and treat,” they said.

Now 12 years old, they say Watson has perfected his ability to rule over a household.

More than 700 animals were adopted from the Nanaimo SPCA in 2019.
