About Almond (Middle-East, ST)
Hello everyone. My name is Almond and here is a little info about me:
Breed: Labrador mix
Age: 1,5 years
Gender: Female
Weight: 41 lb
Height: 55 cm
Highlight(s): Good with other dogs, cats, people, no sign of aggression, no escape tendency, no car sickness
My lovely rescuer found me and a number of my freinds, in the back of a truck on our way to be euthanized. She actually had to pay the driver to convince him to surrender us. Needless to say, we were all over the moon, not believing how lucky we were. I have been living at the shelter with my rescue mom and other furry friend for the past year or so and can not wait to find my forever familly.
I am very friendly to humans of all ages, even to strangers. I love to snuggle and if you are ok with it, I have plenty of doggien kisses to give. I enjoy meeting new friends at the shelter, in fact, I am responsible for welcoming all the new rescues that my mom brings to the shelter. I have a calm demeanour but at the same time, I enjoy running around and playing with toys.
I am also very good with other dogs regardless of their size so I am very comfortable living in a house with another dog.
My rescue mom has been training me to walk on lead. She says I am a very smart girl and eager to learn. I have no problem sharing my space and toys with other dogs and have never been seen guarding my food. My rescue mom keeps telling me what a well behaived girl I am.
I enjoy outdoor activities and like to rest/chill out at home after walks. Given my young age, I do need daily walks and activities. I am looking forward to finding my forever home where I can blossem, love and be loved.
Energy Level: Medium/High

Disclaimer: It is important for all applicants to visit our website, http://www.lovedatlastdogrescue.ca/adopting/ and read about Loved at Last Dog Rescue.
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.
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.
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.
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.
