Whoooyaaa. My name is ENZO and here is a little info about me: Breed: Norwiegen Elkhound/German Shepard mix Age: 2 yrs Gender: male Weight: 27 kg Height: 45 cm Highlight(s): playful, athletic, clever, affectionate, independent, curious Sadly, Enzo's Oct. 23rd, 2023 flight was cancelled due to the war.   I enjoy cuddling and am faithfully loyal. That's a great start, right? Found on the streets of Israel by a visiting friend when I was almost 8 months old, I have been living in the shelter since then. Being an energetic boy, I like long walks and to run. I can be a bit jumpy, but since I am intelligent, eager to learn and easy to train, you should be able to alleviate that habit. Though I am confident & alert, I can be submissive and a tad anxious. But I am a brave & daring pup, so it shouldn't take long to get into a relaxed state after I get to know routines and what to expect in my new world. You will find I am quite entertaining, as while I am athletic, I am also silly clumsy sometimes. I enjoy play, but can be a smidge dominant with submissive/calm male dogs. My rescuer does not think cats are a good combo for me. I do walk well on leash however. I would like a home where you can give me plenty of attention and play time. I can get demanding of attention, me me me... in an agreeable way though. So, if a bright-eyed, happy boy is who you are after, look no further. Here I am. Other vids on the way. Energy Level: moderate - high I get along with: Dogs: yes Cats: unknown, rescuer thinks not Kids: unknown Fears: reactive to the sound of cars. Please be patient assisting me in my transition. Training: briefly describe Leash skills: Some. Please be prepared to continue training. House trained: Yes. Please be prepared to help me learn where to go in my new home. Health notes: I have been spayed/neutered, vaccinated and microchipped. My adoption fee is $800.00 CAD plus applicable taxes. This includes my transportation to Canada, if I am able to be accompanied by a flight volunteer directly to Vancouver. 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. show less

Gabby Breed: Labrador Retriever  Age: 1.5 years old  Gender: female spayed  Weight: 17 kg Height: 55 cm Hi there everybody! My name is Gabby and I am a super kind, and very playful pup! My left arm never grew to its full size when I was a baby due to a birth defect, I am always limping but you wouldn’t know it when you see me play. I love to play with other dogs nonstop. I am extremely friendly, but I might be shy when you first meet me. It doesn’t take me long to warm up to people though. I will be on my back asking you for belly rubs in no time. I have mostly had exposure to smaller dogs and terriers, but I also get along really well with people and bigger dogs. You just need to give me a chance. I really hope to be able to come to Canada soon, because honestly, living in a shelter and limping around all the time it’s not the most ideal situation for me. I would love to be in a more comfortable environment with loving parents that will help me thrive and be the pup I want to be and have the life I deserve. I really hope that you will end up being my person! Energy level: active and playful and loves to be around people to get cuddles and attentions Get along with  Other dogs: yes  Children: yes  Cats: unknown    Prey Drive: not at all, however my adopter needs to be willing to train me should these behaviors arise Fears: not really, except for maybe not finding a home 😉 I will probably need some patience to get used to my new environment Training: Leash training: She's good with leash  Housetrained: She goes out but still need training  Health notes: I am missing my left arm because of a birth defect, but it does not hinder me from living a normal and playful life. I have been vaccinated, spayed and microchipped. My adoption fee is 850.00 CAD plus applicable taxes. This includes my transportation to Canada, if I am able to be accompanied by a fight volunteer directly to Vancouver Gabby with other dogs https://youtu.be/utt0x5HZvcM?si=I2oMHX73b4qVVXvq Gabby being touched with people https://youtu.be/-rkwQFL7AnA?si=fftIzoFFTyb7HgQM Gabby with people https://youtu.be/P7CrChXz9eY?si=AUG6v6YEw52eA4-C Gabby relaxing https://youtu.be/FPlZCPi2mUA?si=qbm53rbNhAbM9VSU Gabby around other dogs https://youtu.be/HQ5VGUdll-s?si=rXOQX04N7fvRSude Disclaimer: It is important for all applicants to visit our website, http://www.lovedatlastdogrescue.ca/adopting/ and read about Loved at Last Dog Rescue.

Greetings. My name is Gideon and here is a little info about me: Breed: Terrier mix (Rural China dog) Age: 7 yrs Gender: male Weight: 21 lbs Height: barely over 15 inches Highlight(s): intelligent, tripaw, agile, sweet, humorous, happy Do you like alert and intelligent dogs? Well, that's me. Oh, and I am a sweet boy too. My foster family calls me Giddy for short. Originally rescued from China. I was grabbed from the butcher's table. Sickeningly minutes too late, as the butcher had already removed one of my rear legs. I came to be with my foster in Canada in September of 2022. Since then, the original rescue has abandoned me. Sadly, my foster family is unable to keep me long term, so I need a place to call my own for the remainder if my life. Being a tripaw presents no discomfort for me, nor does it slow me down. Don't let my lack of a leg or age fool you, I am an agile puppo, who can display random bursts of energy whenever you approach the door or put on a jacket. I do pull on leash, but consistent training will help with that. What can I say?, I'm just excited for sniffies. If there is a yard, it must be well fenced or I will escape. If there is a hole or a loose panel, I will find it. Told you I was intelligent. A harness is also a must, as I am great at slipping out of a regular collar. Did I mention VERY intelligent. About once a month though, I go outside in the morning and stay out for a long time, get distracted and forget to poop, then I poop inside when no one is watching. Not really sure why I do this. Weird, hunh? Maybe you can discover my mystery. I tend toward the protective side vocally only. Sometimes there are just things that need to be said. No aggressiveness at all. I just like people to know I am on the job. While I get along better with dogs my own size, a bit larger is ok too. I co-exist fine with my golden retriever sibling. I am just not much interested in playing with him. I do fine with kids at the park. No idea how I'd do living with them though. Ok, funny quirk you'll feel giddy about and crack up. I gotta be on something, as I hate being on the regular floor and will actively seek out anything at all to be off it. A blanket hanging off the edge of the couch works great, a piece of clothing on the ground and I'll even grab a treat and scurry away to enjoy it on the bed. See... you're already snickering, aren't you? Given I am a perfect size, I'm sure you'll be happy to get lap snuggles. C'mon, let's get our life together rolling. Energy Level: Moderate I get along with: Dogs: yes Cats: unknown Kids: yes Fears: None observed. Just the usual dog irritants, like vacuums and sudden noises, etc... Training: Knows basic commands. Improving at leaving food be until given permission. Leash skills: No. Please be prepared to train me. House trained: Most of the time, 90+%. Help me learn where to go in my new home. Health notes: Missing rear left leg, Umbilical hernia (pretty common and harmless.) I could use a teeth cleaning. I have been spayed/neutered, vaccinated (to include Bordatella) and microchipped. My adoption fee is $700.00 CAD plus applicable taxes.

UPDATE: I am now in Canada and all ready to go to my forever home! I have been with a nice family, but their existing dog and I were not well matched. So I am needing a new home. My current foster family has said that I am an energetic guy outside but that I become quite relaxed when I come indoors. Both my rehoming adopter and my foster family have said that I am highly intelligent, 100% housetrained, and able to understand several commands including sit, heel, out, bed, stay. I also am known for really wanting to please my humans, although I am still feeling a bit nervous around some strangers when we're out walking. Given what I have learned so far in such a short time, I'm sure that I will learn to relax and trust humans who I don't know. I do like socializing with some other dogs, but I prefer being the only dog in a family. Also, given that I have a fairly sensitive personality which can cause me to feel nervous at times, I am not a good match for a home with a cat or kids. Hi there, my name is GIGGLY and here is some info about me: Breed: Saluki/Border Collie mix Age: 2-1/2 years Gender: male Weight: 18 kg Height: 50 cm Tossed out of a moving car in the Middle East when I was only two months old, a good Samaritan called the shelter and told the owner to go and find me in the bushes on the freeway. They literally had to go and search around where I was tossed to find me. I don’t appear very traumatized by the situation, thankfully. I am a very affectionate and happy dog. Since I am very playful, or would be great  to be adopted into a family with other dogs or a family that can take me to a dog park to interact with other dogs. I love to play and jump around a lot. I get along very well with humans and other dogs. The staff named me Giggly. I always make everyone laugh, because I have so much energy and I do the funniest things at the shelter. Because I am in a shelter environment, there is no way to know about cats, but because of my high energy levels, the staff doesn’t think it would be a good idea for me to be around cats, as I might chase them. That is merely a guess though. It's hard to tell if I am much of a barker, because of the shelter environment. I tend to get hyped up when the other dogs bark around me. I think away from a multi-dog unstructured environment (mass shelter dogs) and with a bit of training though, it wouldn't be an issue. I love my food and gobble up every last bit as soon as I can. Energy Level: moderate Get along with: Dogs, yes Cats, unknown, though recommendation is no Kids, unknown, though my rescuer states yes, no video proof available yet Prey drive: unknown, not observed with cats, squirrels, rabbits, etc... As far as currently known, I get along with all animals. Even small ones. But due to being in a shelter, there is no way to know how he would react to squirrels or rabbits. It is important that my adopter be willing to train me, just in case I react towards small animals. So far I get along with everyone I meet. Fears: I can sometimes be fearful of strangers. My reaction is that I am just timid and shy and thus take time to approach people. But this can easily be worked on with proper intro and socialization. Training: basic, but very eager to learn more & loves praise as he learns new things Leash skills: learning very quickly, accepts leash easily, learning heel House trained: yes Health notes: I have been spayed/neutered, *vaccinated & micro-chipped.

Good day to you. My name is Golden and here is a little info about me: Breed: Golden Retriever/Shepard mix Age: 2-1/2 yrs Gender: female Weight: 55 lbs Height: 20-1/2 inches Highlight(s): quiet, playful, curious, observant, affectionate I'm a quiet and observant girl, who just takes in all of life. This helps me in my learning. My rescuer noticed me when she was on a routine feeding run for stray dogs. I was just a puppy at a breeder place outside of town in the Middle East. There was a big scar on my back. My rescuers don't know how that happened, but luckily the breeder didn't want me and so freely let me go with my rescuer. Phew. The shelter staff has never heard me bark. Weird, I know. I tend toward the curious, silent type though. I enjoy following the staff around when it isn't too crowded. I also enjoy playing with the other dogs. Being affectionate, I like getting belly rubs... aaah the way to my heart. While I am the quiet type, I am also playful. Being a curious girl should prove useful for training. Things can be so interesting, I am watchful of everything going on. So, bring on the novelties of life. Energy Level: moderate I get along with: Dogs: yes Cats: unknown Kids: unknown Fears: unknown/none observed. Please be patient assisting me in my transition. Training: briefly describe Leash skills: no. Please be prepared to train me. House trained: no. Please help me learn! Health notes: I have been spayed/neutered, vaccinated and microchipped.

Hi, my name is GORDIE HOWL and here is a bit about me: Breed: Husky Age: 7 yrs Gender: Male Weight: 45 lbs Height: 20 inches Highlights:... show more

Hi, my name is GORDIE HOWL and here is a bit about me: Breed: Husky Age: 7 yrs Gender: Male Weight: 45 lbs Height: 20 inches Highlights: Friendly, Sweet, Affectionate, Inquisitive, very low vision Oh hello there! I didn’t see you at first, but I’m so glad you’re here. Even though I can’t see very well, it’s clear as day that I’m an absolute gem. I don’t let my good looks go to my head, though; I’m a sweet, open-hearted guy who loves easily. My baby blues may be beautiful, but unfortunately they aren’t as functional as they could be. You see, I have diabetes that wasn’t treated in a timely manner, and as a result my eyes are now only able to detect movement and shadow. I’m so grateful to my guardian angel, who just happened to be at the clinic and overheard as my original owners got my diagnosis. Even though my treatment is very manageable, they didn’t want me anymore. If she hadn’t been there to scoop me up and take me to safety, I wouldn’t have ever walked back out of that clinic. Speaking of walks: I love them! Due to my eyes, I’m not your typical hyper husky who is ready to take off like a rocket. Instead, I prefer to have your company as I take in my surroundings in a more scholarly manner (brains AND beauty? I know, I’m the total package.) I get so much enjoyment out of exercising my nose, ears, and mind! I’m a complete pro on the leash, and I’d love someone special to point out all the best sniffs and sounds to. I hope you're not the jealous type, though; I gain adoring fans wherever I go and I absolutely must stop to say hello. I love the attention whether it comes from humans or other dogs, and it would be rude not to share all of my glorious beauty with them. And if you want to shower me with toys and treats when we get home, well that’s just a bonus! What I crave most, though, is the comfort and consistency of being by your side. In fact, it's what I crave most of all! All dogs (and many people!) thrive on a regular schedule. For me, it’s the key to a long and healthy life. Even though adopting a dog with diabetes might sound really scary, mostly I just need what all dogs need: routine! Not to be a diva, but I need to have a consistent feeding and exercise schedule to keep my blood sugar nice and even. Other than that, I just need an easy-peasy insulin injection once a day and I’m all set! See? Super models of my status usually require low-fat lattes and fancy moisturizer, but not me! What can I say? I’m pretty low maintenance. I’m also fairly flexible about what my ideal home could be, as long as my routine is in place! As you can imagine, relying so much on my hearing means I can be more easily startled by sudden loud noises, and I find loud humans and yelling very scary indeed. I love humans, but because of this sensitivity I’m probably not well suited to live with young humans. They are just too full of surprises for me! I prefer the more predictable adoration of teens and adults. I am completely comfortable with dogs of all shapes and sizes, and honestly having a canine Paw-sonal Assistant at home could go a long way to helping me become confident in my new surroundings. I hear that other huskies usually like to chase these things called “cats”, but I’m not really sure if I have met such a creature before. I’m equally happy to have many adoring fans in the home, or to be the only star in your sky. If you’re looking for a friendly, affectionate, intelligent friend to keep you company and keep you on track, I’m your guy! Energy Level: Moderate I get along with... Dogs: Yes Cats: unknown Kids: Yes, but older kids and teens Fears: Sudden loud noises & loud voices. Please be patient assisting me in my transition. Training: House & Leash Leash skills: Yes. Please be prepared to continue training. House trained: Yes. Please help me learn where to go in my new home. Health notes: I have diabetes with impaired vision and require a once-daily insulin injection and a regular feeding & exercise schedule to stay healthy. I have not yet been neutered, as the vet wants a stable environment for me first, so as not to upset my condition. Loved at Last will cover my neuter surgery at our chosen vet. My adoption fee is $500.00 CAD plus applicable taxes.

Hello everyone. My name is Haidi and here is a little info about me: Breed: Jindo mix Age: 4 years Gender: Female     Weight: 43 lb Heig... show more

Hello everyone. My name is Haidi and here is a little info about me: Breed: Jindo mix Age: 4 years Gender: Female     Weight: 43 lb Height: 48 cm Highlight(s): Calm, Happy, rarely bark It was the end of November 2021 when I was rescued from a dog meat farm and slaughter house. Before rescued, I was tied up to a heavy metal chain and forced to watch other dogs being slaughtered. I was immensely shocked. I was too scared. I ate my puppies as soon as I gave birth to them. After rescued, my rescuer weighed the metal chain. It was 1.7kg!!!  When my rescuer removed my old collar, my skin around the neck was peeled off. I love all nice human friends. When they pet me, I feel so good. I hope it never ends. My rescuer said my smile is my best feature. I'm not very interested in playing with new dogs. I tend to briefly say hi and mind my own businesses. I'm a bit jealous when another dog is getting attention from my person. My appetite is high, with no resource guarding issues towards people but I can growl at other dogs if they come close. Best to feed me separately. I haven't shown any signs of separation anxiety, no car sickness and I rarely bark.                                        A year ago, I showed aggression to 3 dogs among 70-80 dogs. I don't remember why I did that and nobody saw the moment. After I spent a lot of time around other dogs, I'm more comfortable around other dogs. Even though I've been doing well around other dogs, my handler thinks I'd be better in home that I'd be the only dog.  Energy Level: I have a low energy level. I enjoy outdoor activities and like to rest/calm at home after walks.  At a dog park, I don't like running. I walk around and after a while, I'd like to lie down and take a rest. During walks, I'm quite confident and curious. I'm  not scared of passing cars, buses, and trucks. I'm very good at jumping into a car. I get along with: Dogs: yes but a home that I can be the only dog and get all the attention is preferred  Cats: Unsure as I haven't met a cat yet.  Kids: yes Fears: Unknown/none observed. Please be patient assisting me in my transition. Leash skills: yes. Please be prepared to continue training. House trained: Yes. Please be prepared to help me learn where to go in my new home. Health notes: I have been spayed, vaccinated and microchipped. My adoption fee is $750.00 CAD plus applicable taxes.

Pupdate: I have definitely made some improvements at warming up to some strangers other than my foster and allowing them to show me love, so there is definitely hope for more progress. I am currently in Vancouver! Update from Foster: I continue to be a loving dog who greatly enjoys cuddles and playtime with my humans. I am working on my confidence with new people I meet as I am still recovering from the awful treatment I received as a puppy. I love playing with dogs who are kind to me and I look forward to getting to know my new adopters. I can live in a family with other dogs or as the only dog. I would like a yard but as long as I'm near pleasant walking areas, a home without a yard would be fine too. Are you perhaps my new human?  Hana is a very sweet and affectionate girl who loves to cuddle and get pets. She loves to play with toys on her own and loves to chase balls, but still hasn’t figured out how to bring the ball back. She is very quiet and is housetrained. She eats her meals without any hassle. Oddly enough, she doesn’t like peanut butter, but loves roast beef! She is very easy to walk on a leash but can be fearful of other dogs that get too close. She is best suited for a home without any other pets but hopefully, with patience and training, she can improve her social skills with other animals. Here is some info about me: Breed: Dalmatian/Lab mix Age: 3 yrs Gender: fe, spayed Weight: 28 kg/ 62 lbs Height: 62 cm/ 25-1/2 in My rescuer saved me when I was only 5 months old. A crazy man chained me to a tree and was beating me, because I ate his chicken. I was sooo hungry. They had no idea how long I was in that horrible situation, but no one helped me. It was actually my rescuer's friend that first saw me, but she was afraid to approach the angry man to stop him. So she called my rescuer and they both went together and hid until the guy left. Then they went and unchained me to bring me to safety. I was so weak I couldn’t walk on my own. They had to carry me to their car. They took me to the vet and amazingly, I didn’t have any broken bones and no severe injuries from being hit. I was of course very weak from hunger and had no energy to walk. I received an IV injection and came home with my rescuer who cared for me til I was healthy again.  Time for my very own home now though. Don't you just love my freckled fur? I am super friendly. Also, quite active and playful. I've got dancing feet, hip hopping all over. Life is so joyful. I enjoy being around other dogs, as well as people. However, where I live is an abandoned area, where many other dogs are living with me. My rescuer comes to feed us as often as possible, but it is not daily nor as much food or as good a nutrition as we need. We are safe there though. So, I await you being my next hero and saving me and bringing me to Canada for a truly good life. Couple more vids: https://youtu.be/pRTkwNKJEEU, https://youtu.be/ICU-O5fn2aE.

Hello sunshiney world. My name is HUBBA BUBBA (Bubba) and here is a little info about me: Breed: Shepard/Cattledog mix Age: 1 yr Gender: male Weight: 62 lbs Height: tbd Highlight(s): laid back, cuddly, even tempered, some men make him nervous, ESA. A beautiful pup, who is good with people, to include kids (even very small ones), you'll find my attitude appealing. I am certified as a Service Animal, but not task trained, more as an ESA to help with PTSD. Living in Peru, my owner adopted me when I was just three months old. She can no longer afford to keep me and will be moving to the US, so can't bring me with due to their stringent rules and doesn't want me left on the streets. I do get nervous with men sometimes that I don't know and can bark and growl at them. I have never bit or attacked anyone though. In fact, I am quite even tempered and very laid back. Also docile and love to cuddle. My owner gave me some good training. I doesn't always listen when called, but I know how to sit and lay down. I'm very good on leash and am ok to be left alone for periods of time if you need to go out. I am pretty healthy, but have a sensitive tummy with fish and chicken. I enjoy diets of rice and fresh red meat/potatoes/eggs, etc... I do feel my stomach sensitivities need to be checked further. Good with most dogs, but I can be a bit shy at first. I need a home with a yard and space for me to roam and someone who likes to go hiking. An active lifestyle would be best for me. Energy Level: moderate I get along with: Dogs: rescuer states yes, but no video proof Cats: unknown Kids: rescuer states yes, but no video proof Fears: sometimes nervous with men that he doesn't know, may bark/growl at them. Training: yes. Leash, house, some commands and SD certif. ESA work for PTSD. Leash skills: yes. Please be prepared to continue training. House trained: Yes. Be prepared to help me learn where to go in my new home. Health notes: I have been spayed/neutered, vaccinated and microchipped. My adoption fee is $800.00 CAD plus applicable taxes.

A very good day to you. My name is JAKK (Jack) and here is a little info about me: Breed: Shepard mix Age: 2 yrs Gender: male Weight: 20 kg Height: 60 cm Rescuers found me here in the Middle East when they were out feeding stray dogs. I was taken to a safer place. I have been living in the shelter since then. I was taken to the vet at that time. The vet believes I am low on calcium and other nutritients, no accident or injuries otherwise thankfully. Well, aside from someone cutting off my ears, which is very common here in my country. I have another appointment to give more detailed info on whether I need more vitamins/minerals or any special nutrition to build me up. From lack of proper nutrition and/or genetics, my front feet are broken down/weakened. Given good nutrients and a vitamin/minerals mix will likely help. I will probably need some foot/leg braces though. I'm sure the vets in Canada can formulate a plan to help me improve and strengthen them. Maybe a bit of physiotherapy will help too. I am a very calm, kind boy. You'll find I am a pretty relaxed fellow... mellow in fact. I am just the type of loyal dog you want by your side. I will be your bestest buddy. A moderately easy activity level would suit me in a home. Maybe once my feet are in better shape, we can do more, as I hear there are spectacular things to do there in Canada. It would be nice to have a cushy spot in the house to laze around and be able to go out and roll in the grass, as well. I get along well with other dogs, but haven't been around any kitties or kids yet. With my chilled attitude though, I could probably do well with proper intro to a cat. Really just hoping for a family I can lavish my love upon and be loved in return.

Hello kind people. Allow me to introduce myself, I am Jaycee (JC) and here is a little info about me: Breed: Middle Eastern Shepard Age: 6 yrs Gender: female Weight: 70 lbs Height: 30 inches Highlight(s): sweet, fast learner, eager to please, presently traumatized timid Beautiful and sweet combo, ready for your adoration. No worries, I will give you even more in return. If you are looking for a dog that is smart, a fast learner, eager to please, and good with people and dogs, please consider me. I love being a homebody and cuddling. I had a rough start in life. Born on the outskirts of a major city in the Middle East, city officials & others, killed most of my litter mates when we were just 2 months old. Here's a vid of my mother, she is the white dog: https://youtu.be/l1Fo1iud3gg. Me and my sister were rescued by a neighbor who grabbed us inside. After she could no longer keep us, we went to a shelter. There I received basic obedience training - https://youtu.be/hXBfC3shAWA, as well as in Seattle when I first arrived in N Am: https://youtu.be/g_YoKUw6QP8. I was adopted and came to Canada, where I have been the past 4 years. Sadly, my adopters surrendered me about the end of April back to my rescuer. About 1-1/2  or so years ago, they purchased a new home and new furniture. Because of this, they suddenly stopped letting me in the house beyond a meter of the sliding door to the yard. After the birth of their first child, there was no time for me and I was isolated and spent most of my time alone in the yard or in my bed just inside of the door. There was even a gate to prevent me entering further beyond. Occasionally the owner would sit with me for a few moments. At one of those sitting, I growled and did not want him to sit with me. So they decided to give me away, because the wife was now scared of me. I had been around children before adoption. So, when I came back, I was not the same dog. I was nervous, hiding behind the car seat and shaking. My rescuer boarded me at a great place, but I did not trust anybody nor want to leave my kennel. I avoided eye contact. I used to go for long walks off leash, playing in the water with my rescuer before this adoption. The boarding staff have been extremely supportive, showering me with extra attention and of course, many hot dogs, to encourage me on walks. I recently wagged my tail again and voluntarily left my kennel for a walk. So time away from those people who put me in solitary confinement is helping little by little. Dogs are not made to have such little interactions with their family. Having another confident doggie in the home will help me a lot. I just need time and love to rebound. Then I can again become the happy doggo I was before this horrible turn of events. But that is behind me. Will you help make my future happen? Energy Level: moderate I get along with: Dogs: yes Cats: unknown Kids: unknown - likely yes, as I've been around them in the past Fears: Thunderstorms. Please be patient assisting me in my transition. Maybe a thundershirt would help. Training: briefly describe Leash skills: yes. Please be prepared to continue training. House trained: Yes.

I am a pretty unique looking boy! I was found seconds before being killed by mean people in a village in the Middle East. I don't know what I have done but all I know is that people didn't like me to be around them.  Thanks to my amazing rescuers who believe in my gentle manner and kind soul. They are the reason why I got the second chance in life. I am looking for my forever home in Canada so I can experience the life I have always deserved. I would love to have a relaxing home, where we can get out for hikes, yet chill like cucumbers at home too.

Hello everyone. My name is Kaila and here is a little info about me: Breed: Jindo/German Shepherd Mix Age: 2 years Gender: Female     Weight: 44 lb Height:  57 cm Highlight(s): Good with other dogs, rarely barks In February 2022, I found myself in a city pound as a stray, along with my Shepherd mom and two siblings. While they were lucky enough to find their forever homes, I was left behind, feeling a little lonely. But hey, that's all in the past now because I'm ready to find my own loving family! I must admit, I can be a bit shy when I first meet new people. But if you approach me gently, I'll warm up to you quickly. I even enjoy being petted and lifted once I feel comfortable. Treats? Oh, I love them! I'll happily take them from your hands. However, if I'm feeling too nervous, I might pass on the treats for now. It's all about finding that balance, you know? Guess what? I had the pleasure of meeting a two-year-old human boy once. He whined a lot, but you know what? I was super patient with him. I understand that little ones can be full of energy and noise, and I'm more than happy to be a calm and gentle companion for them. When it comes to meeting new dogs, I have different approaches. Sometimes, I'm all about play and will actively approach them, ready for some fun. Other times, I prefer to just say a quick hello and then mind my own business. It really depends on my mood. Oh, and when I visit a dog park for the first time, I might feel a bit overwhelmed. In those moments, I'd love to find a cozy corner where I can feel safe and secure. Now, let's talk about cats. I've encountered a few stray cats during our walks, and I must admit, they make me a little nervous. I prefer to keep my distance and just sniff them indirectly. I'm still learning to be more comfortable around them, but for now, I'll stick to walking with my handler and exploring the world together. At home, I'm a pretty calm and relaxed pup. I love to chill out and take naps. In fact, I've already found my favorite spot under the desk, and that's where I like to set up my comfort zone. When my handler puts me on a leash, I'm a good girl and follow her lead. During walks, I can still be a bit tense and timid. You might notice that I tuck my tail most of the time. But don't worry, I'm learning to trust and feel more at ease. I walk well on a leash and won't pull you around. Now, car rides are a bit of a challenge for me. I tend to get carsick and vomit, but I'm getting better at it. Short drives are becoming easier for me, and I'm hopeful that with time, I'll overcome this little hurdle. Oh, and did I mention that I'm pretty independent? I can jump into a car all by myself, and I'm totally okay with being brushed. Baths? No problem! I tolerate them well. Now, let's talk about food. I have a healthy appetite, but I do get a bit uncomfortable when people get too close while I'm eating. It's just a little quirk of mine, but with some patience and understanding, I'm sure we can work through it together. So, if you're looking for a sweet and gentle companion who's still learning to navigate the world, I'm your girl! I may have had a rough start, but I'm ready to find my forever home where I can feel safe, loved, and cherished. If you think we could be a perfect match, please reach out and let's start this beautiful journey together.  I get along with: Dogs: yes Cats: yes Kids: yes   Fears: Unknown/none observed. Please be patient assisting me in my transition. Training: Yes, Leash and crate trained Leash skills: Yes. Please be prepared to continue training. House trained: Yes.

UPDATE: Hello all you marvelous people who are reading this! My sister, Nona, and I are happy, active, social dogs who just love life in Canada. Unfortunately, after a year and a half of us being adopted, our adopter has had a major illness arise and so is unable to continue to care for us. She is so sad to be rehoming us but she knows that my sister and I will bring joy into a new home, just as we have with our current adopter. As my sister and I are so very close to each other, we need to be adopted together. Double the joy and fun...who could resist us, eh?! We are good natured family members who LOVE time with our humans, especially when we go adventuring in nature. We would just love a home with a back yard and even some kids to play with (as long as they are gentle with us). Would you like to meet us....we would love to meet you!! Breed: Golden retriever/husky Age: 2 years old Gender: fe, spayed Wgt/Hgt: 48-1/2 lbs, 22 kg / 22-1/2 inches Energy level: moderate Relations: good with dogs, kids and cats Highlights: gentle, friendly, lively Region: Middle East Extra extra, read all about it... pup loves cuddling and to be close with her humans. Me & my sister Nona were being fed (mostly bread, as things are so expensive in the Middle East) by a girl. One day she came to feed us and found us in bad shape. My sister & I were was mutilated by a shaman. My sister's leg ended up having to be amputated. I had an injury on my back. Thankfully, due to some wonderful rescuers we are both recovered and ready for a home... together. We are quite bonded. After rescue, we were taken to 2 different shelters, then reunited after a month. Night and day difference. We went from depressed to happy, confident pups. This made it clear to the rescuers we need to remain together. I love getting pets. I play well together with my sister and with other dogs. No issues with food protectiveness either. What I like is to seek closeness with humans. I am friendly and gentle. I'm also good with kids. Waiting to get to cuddle with you. Additional vid: https://youtu.be/748aQHHOjkg.
