Hi y’all! My name is Barbie, and I am simply a doll! Just look at my gorgeous dual- colored eyes.
Being in the shelter for about four months, I must tell you, I do not like it here. Having made a lot of friends, it’s fine, but I would much rather be on a comfy couch, snuggling with my forever person. I am very friendly with both people and dogs! I’m always smiling and playing.
I had a rough start in life. I had puppies about four months ago, but they were stolen from me when they were around a month old. I was depressed for a very long time. I seem to have forgotten my past right now. But I sometimes have my sad days.
Although I am not yet housetrained, us shelter dogs tend to learn quickly.
Anyway, I can’t wait to meet you to show you my great personality, despite my sad past. I hope to become a Canadian citizen very soon. Don’t get me wrong, I love hanging out with my friends at the shelter, but I would much rather have a human companion to cozy up to. I'd really like a home who can understand where I'm at and willing to ease me along into a real Canadian life.
Energy Level: moderate
I get along with:
Dogs: yes

Disclaimer: It is important for all applicants to visit our website, http://www.lovedatlastdogrescue.ca/adopting/ and read about Loved at Last Dog Rescue.
Information included in the profile is provided to us from the international rescuer or local fosters. LALDR does not have access to overseas dogs and cannot always verify the accuracy of their descriptions. Every dog is an individual and can act differently in different situations based on the person adopting them and the environment in which they live.
Please Note: LALDR highly encourages adopters to research some local dog trainers before their dog arrives. Although a 1-on-1 trainer is often not needed, it is good to have someone in mind in case any problematic behaviours arise. Most bad behaviours can be modified if caught early enough, so make sure to nip undesirable behaviours in the bud before they become serious problems.
Basic training should be taken seriously, but should not begin until your dog is well settled in - at least a couple of weeks. After you feel your new dog is relaxed and comfortable in their new home, check out training courses in your local area. Even basic beginner courses like those taught at a local pet store can have a huge benefit in helping your dog learn to socialize and get used to being in public situations, all with the added benefit of strengthening their bond with you.
While most dogs find escorting passengers flying directly to Vancouver, some will find flights through Toronto or Montreal. In that case, additional fees will apply to fly your dog to Vancouver by cargo. Unaccompanied cargo costs within Canada range from $350 - $550 depending on the size of the dog. LALDR will be as transparent as possible with you regarding these costs.
The age and breed of a dog is usually an educated guess, so we are not able to guarantee the accuracy of age or breed of our dogs.
Normally, we will not approve adoptions to homes with children under 12 years of age. However if a dog has been determined to be good with children we will approve applicants with children 8 years or older. More information can be found on our website.
[MID-EAST DOGS] *Vaccinations: Dogs from the Middle East are vaccinated for rabies, parvo, distemper, leptospirosis, adenovirus type 1 and para-influenza. Bordetella is not given, as that has not been a problem in the Middle East.
