About A FOSTER Dog Application

This is the application that you should use if you are looking to apply to foster a dog AND ARE NOT planning to adopt. 

Foster homes are one of the most important parts of any dog rescue. Without these homes, we wouldn't be able to rescue as many dogs as we do. 

Our greatest need is for foster volunteers who have dog experience. We often have foster dogs that require some kind of behavioural training, or have medical needs, so if you have experience in either of these areas please apply now.

  • Fostering is agreeing to take a dog into your home, temporarily, while the rescue is receiving and reviewing applications for adoption.  

What does it cost?

  • As a foster home, we can provide you with food, collar, leash. We will also cover any vet bills, but please speak to your foster coordinator before taking the dog to the vet unless its an emergency

What if I can only foster a small dog?

  • We will work with the limitations of our foster homes. If you are asked to foster a dog that is too big, please just let us know and we will look for another home. We are always looking for foster homes that can accomodate big dogs.

What if I only want to foster a puppy?

  • Puppies are usually very easy to adopt and often don't need fostering. Please consider an older dog that could be even more fun!

What if I want to adopt?

  • If your intent is to adopt a dog, you will need to submit an adoption application for review. 

I only want to foster a specific dog.

  • If you want a specific dog and only that dog, we recommend that you apply to adopt. International dogs are not normally available for fostering as we try to only bring them here if an approved adopter has been found.

We really need more experienced foster homes and appreciate you reading this posting. I hope that you consider opening your heart and your home to help a dog in need. The love and care that you can provide for even a short period, will make a huge difference in the life of a dog.

Regards

Foster Team

LEIDI (Mid East, yo)

Hi there. My name is LEIDI and here is a little info about me: Breed: Anatolian Shepard mix Age: 6 months Gender: female Weight: 21 kg Height: tbd Highlights: house trained, clever, curious, cuddly I am just a big cuddle bug. A bit licky, but that's because I just love to kiss the people who give me attention to show my appreciation. Born in a poor neighborhood in the Middle East, my mama was very sick, and she couldn't protect me. Only a few days after I was born, a crazy person cut my ears and tail off. I was in so much pain for days. I'm such a brave girl though, I endured. Then one day the municipal employees took my mom away and left me alone, terrified and hungry. After a few weeks, a kind lady found me and took me to ger home! She took me to the vet to treat my infections. She also found a family for me, but a few days before my placement, the vet found out I have hip dysplasia. When the family found out, they changed their mind and didn't want me anymore. If I could get treatment and supplements while still young, I may do just fine. I'm told there are surgeries that can help a young dog like me with displaysia, so I can pretty much have a normal life. I do so hope you are willing to help me. I bet Loved at Last could help you figure out fundraising to help with any surgery. I'm good with other dogs. See how careful I am with the puppies:  https://youtu.be/Z1sXskfheO0. Here I am gnawing on a bone with a friend: https://youtube.com/shorts/6iqLEOIJG1M?feature=share. And here's some crate training time: https://youtube.com/shorts/rKNTMbWEFio?feature=share. Even sticks can be good fun: https://youtu.be/9jnRDX21Oms. Hug wrestling:  https://youtu.be/1IaCqW6W16E.  You'll find me eager to learn. I'm quite curious, so will watch everything. Also, I'm very clever, so will be easy to train. I can also be a funny, silly girl, so I'll bring you laughter. Energy Level: high, as I am a puppy. I get along with: Dogs: yes Cats: yes, living with lots of cats now Kids: unknown Prey drive: high Fears: unknown/none observed. Please be patient assisting me in my transition. Training: a bit of leash training, house trained 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: Ears and tail cut off, has hip dysplasia I am too young yet to be spayed/neutered, but I am vaccinated and microchipped. Spay/neuter is required for my adoption to be finalized. My adoption fee is $700.00 CAD plus applicable taxes. This includes my transportation to Canada, if I am able to be accompanied by a flight volunteer directly to Vancouver.

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.

Unfortunately, due to recently introduced regulations by the CDC, dogs from the Middle East can no longer be imported into the US. Therefore, this dog is only available to Canadian residents. Hi there. My name is Leonora and here is a little info about me: Breed: Dachshund/Spitz mix Age: 2 yrs Gender: Female Weight: 4.5 kg Height: tbd NEW UPDATE: Leo continues to amaze us with her determination and progress.  She is really motivated to walk again and loves to play with her foster siblings.  Leo's gait is becoming less erratic and more purposeful  - continued rehab. therapy will help her with this.  We have also measured her for a doggie wheelchair, so she can take longer walks outside.  Leo has an appointment with the vet for an assessment next week, and we plan to have her start swimming therapy soon to build muscle tone.  Leo requires a special diaper for the swimming rehab. as she is incontinent.  She also needs a special kibble which is prescribed to help prevent urinary tract infections (a common complication for paralyzed dogs).  This sweet courageous pup is affectionate and funny - she has a kind nature and loves to be petted.  With continued support, we believe Leo will be able to walk again - and we are doing all we can to help her achieve this goal.  https://youtu.be/4VREZ9YnJQw https://youtu.be/dtOg1AIsvYg. Update from Leonora's foster:  Leonora has been with us one week and is settling in very well.  She is curious and engaging and gets along very well with other respectful small dogs.  She loves to cuddle.  Leonora is also very determined and has already shown off her wobbly walk - she will be getting a wheelchair soon and we will start therapy to improve her ability to walk independently.   Rescued from an abusive situation in the Middle East, I had been injured. My rescuer got me in for surgery. I currently can't walk without help now. I am doing physiotherapy (hydrotherapy) and am on my way to doing better. My doctor said about 50% of my ability to walk could come back. I have some present movement in my front legs, but my rear is disabled. Currently I am doing hydrotherapy. I am eager to please and to learn. You will find me very calm, but also shy. I'm great with humans, as well as other dogs and cats. I am kind and love to be petted https://youtu.be/rZc74xx46Pg, https://youtube.com/shorts/a2rwouYSOAk. I will kiss my humans to show how much I love them. I can be lazy, but am funny too. Though I can be nervous, I am not sensitive to sound. I may need slow intro to men sometimes. Since it is illegal for dogs to walk outside in my country, the outside environment is a bit scary, thus I prefer to stay inside. Maybe if you have a grassy yard, I would learn it is nice to be out though. Though I lack confidence, I am pretty adaptable and can be happy with a new situation quickly. If you have another dog who can help me settle in, that'd be great. I am fine as an only dog too though. If you are willing to work to help me regain some mobility, I will be your bestest buddy ever.

My adopter needs to be willing to train me through these behaviours, should they arise. Fears: I am scared of the outside environment. I can sometimes be scared of men. Training: yes Leash skills: yes, I can walk with a leash and wheelchair (but I will need a wheelchair there.) House trained: Yes, I have control over her my faculties, and all you need to do is help me to get outside for my business. Health notes: mobility issue. I can't walk on my own presently. I will need to continue physiotherapy (hydrotherapy) for about another month (through June.)  Unknown if a vet there will decide if there are any other helps for me. I am vaccinated. Spaying has been postponed, until I recover from my surgery and spend more time in physiotherapy. My spay will be the responsibility of my adopter should I be adopted before the vet deems I can be here. Spaying is required for my adoption to be finalized. My adoption fee is $650.00 CAD plus applicable taxes. This includes my transportation to Canada, if I am able to be accompanied by a flight volunteer directly to Vancouver.

Hello out there. My name is Lizelle and here is a little info about me: Breed: Canaan Dog mix Age: 1 year Gender: Female Weight: 18 kg Height: ~50 cm PUPDATE: Wooohooo, lookie me. I am showing strength putting weight standing on my left rear leg. https://youtu.be/mH3xXor5g1c. I am currently living in a foster home on Vancouver Island where I am getting therapy to help improve my mobility. I am trying so hard, as I really, really want to walk again. But until I can, I still race around with my buddies. I have a great zest for life that not even the limited use of my rear legs dampens.  My start in life was challenging. I was hit by a car at two months of age. A lady found me, but did not immediately take me to a vet, as she had no money to do so. She did her best for me, but sadly the delay in treatment means I can’t use my back legs. However, an operation may be able to restore the use of my back legs. LALDR is working to raise the money for this surgery.  Being very affectionate, I just love hoomans. In fact, I get very sad when my foster mom gives attention to other dogs. So if you have lots of loving to give, I am  Sometimes I won’t eat my food If there are other dogs in the house, I would love to play with them. My paralysis makes that challenging but as you can see from my video I am up to it. I drag myself around with great skill. I am incontinent so my schedule is predictable but, with time and patience, we have been able to work out a schedule.  My foster mom says I am eager to learn, and I want to do everything I can to be the best dog ever. Although I am very comfortable with other dogs, I don’t know about cats or kids. Sadly, my life has been spent inside a home, so my dream is to experience the great outdoors. I would love to have a backyard that I could explore. One thing to know about me is that I have a strong bond with my buddy Bondoka. We wrestle and play together: https://youtu.be/_v86Pfow16w and she cares for me! My ideal home would be one where we could visit one another sometimes. However, we are up for adoption separately, as our foster mom says that since we are both so outgoing and friendly we will adjust well to being separated.  Even with my special needs, I know there are wonderful people in Canada who would give me a chance for a better life. Please be my guardian angel :) New Aug vids: https://youtu.be/_o_2PgZH-n0, https://youtube.com/shorts/kHUCbalp-Jw.

Training: none Leash skills: No. But even with a wheelchair, I can still be taught how to walk beside you & not pull. House trained: No. I am incontinent due to my paralysis. Health notes: Disabled. The vet tells me my pelvis was broken when I was hit by a car. My back bones are not straight and my feet aren’t right - they will need braces, if I am to try and walk again. I am soon to be spayed/neutered. I am vaccinated and microchipped. My adoption fee is $650.00 CAD plus applicable taxes. Our fee together is $1400.

Hi ya. My name is LOLI and here is a little info about me: Breed: shepherd mix Age: 11 months Gender: female Weight: tbd Height: tbd Rescued along with my brother, Boli, when we were only a few weeks old, our mother was killed by city workers. My brother and me were the only puppies that survived. Found by a good hearted samaritan, she took us to her home. Afterwords, when we got a little bigger, we were sent to a shelter, but because we were very small, bigger dogs attacked us. For a while we had very deep and infested wounds from the attack, but we were fortunately nursed back to health. We are completely healthy now, but too young to be spayed and neutered. My brother and I cannot wait to come to Canada! We are still puppies, so we love to play. We are bonded and it would be best for us to be adopted together, but if push comes to shove we could be adopted separately. If it means coming to Canada we are willing to compromise! Energy level: moderate Gets along with: Other dogs: yes Cats: unknown Kids: unknown Prey drive: unknown/none observed.

Health notes: I am too young yet to be spayed/neutered, but I am vaccinated and microchipped. Spay/neuter will be the responsibility of the adopter and is required for my adoption to be finalized.

Hi there! My name is LOVE (Mehraban) and here is some info about me: Breed: Golden Shepard Age: 2-1/2 yrs Gender: male Weight: 27 kg Height: 60 cm FOSTER UPDATE: Love is in Vancouver! He lives up to his name - he's a bundle of love! If you’re looking for cuddles, warm welcomes and a super calm dog, he is your man. He does need a secure yard as he likes to explore. His calm demeanour makes him very special and loving. He is very quiet and loves his walks. He is fine sharing his food and never gets aggressive. Everyone comments on how handsome he is – he’s a real head turner. He’s also very loyal and will want to spend time with his family, so someone home for part of the day would suit him best. Be Love’s hero! Found in the Middle East when only a few months old, my rescuer's friend called her about a crazy person beating a puppy every day and putting him in a very small and dirty cage. He wouldn’t even feed me. He was just using me as a punching bag. Well, when my rescuer heard this, she ran to the place and had an argument with the guy, but he wouldn’t give up the puppy. She is very brave. She Finally threatened him that if he didn’t give me up to her she will leave, but come back with a few other rescuers. The guy knew if that would happen, they would beat him up, so he gave me to her. I am one lucky pup. So, my rescuer has been caring for me a couple of years now. Things are getting more and more difficult & expensive in my country. My rescuer comes to feed me and a bunch of my other friends living with me in an abandoned area. There is no roof in the place we stay, so we are open to the elements and winter is coming. I am very friendly. The word Mehraban means kind in my language, with Mehr being affection or love. I get along well with other dogs and with people. My attitude is calm but playful. I love getting pets from people. Overall, I am a kind and loving-hearted pup. My rescuer just spent time with me and said: I am calm and a very laid back dog. Also that I am good with cats indoors and a good listener for following commands, including leaving the kitties be. I do like to chase them outdoors though, go figure. Of course, I will need to learn commands in English now.  Additional Videos: https://youtu.be/LiiOg-sdNkU https://youtu.be/lryxooBf_9k New Feb 2022 Energy Level: moderate Get along with: Dogs, yes Cats, yes, per rescuer, but no video proof Kids, unknown Prey drive: moderate to moderate low, not observed with squirrels, rabbits, etc... My adopter needs to be willing to train me through these behaviours, should they arise. Fears: unknown, none observed Training: none Leash skills, none. Will need patient training. House trained, no.

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.

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.

Lucy Breed: Saluki mix Age: 6 yrs Gender: female, spayed  Height: 65 cm Weight: 24 kg   Hi everyone! I am Lucy, and it is very nice to meet you! A good Samaritan found me in the middle of the street hungry, with an infection. She took me to the vet and then to a boarding facility. Apparently, my jaw was broken as well. The doctor told her that somebody had probably beaten me. My jaw is completely healed now and I have no issues eating. Once I was at the boarding facility, I was able to get all the food that I wanted! Thank God for that! I love food, but I am not food aggressive. I don’t like it with the other dogs come around me when I am eating but I have no issue with people. And I don’t like dogs that are too clingy and want to play too much. After all I am a middle-aged dog now! I never get aggressive with other dogs. I get along with my doggy friends very well. And I have been told that I have a very sweet disposition with people and children. I really hope that I can spend the rest of my days with a family that will love me preferably in Canada. I have heard life there is a lot more stress free from where I currently live. Please help my dreams come true! Energy level: Moderate Gets along with: Other dogs: yes Kids: yes Cats: unknown Prey Drive: none observed, however my adopter needs to be willing to train me should these behaviors arise Fears: none observed Training: Leash training: Housetrained: yes, I always do my business outside and never inside where I sleep or eat Health notes: I have no health issues and have been spayed, vaccinated and microchipped My adoption fee is $750.00 CAD plus applicable taxes.

UPDATE: Yes indeed, folks, I am now in Canada! I have been with a loving family but they have realized that I am a country girl. I am quite nervous in the city but in a less urban area where it is quieter and there is more green space, I flourish. So having a yard is a MUST to adopt me! I love playing off leash with other dogs, chasing balls, and going for car rides. It would be great if I could have other dog buddies in my adoptive home! I am affectionate and I also love learning basic commands. I love meeting new people, especially when they are calm and they give me belly rubs! As the song says, "country roads, take me home!" I am really looking forward to meeting my new adopters and showing them what a marvelous dog I can be. Hi there! My name is MAGGI and here is some info about me: PHYSICAL INFO:Breed (best guess): Australian Shepherd/Border Collie Mix Age: 10 mos (approx) Gender: Female Weight: 50lbs RESCUE STORY: I was really lucky and was rescued when I was only 2 months old! I had some skin problems that were cured very quickly. I am soft and silky and sweet! You can also see from my videos that I am very smart and have gotten a lot of training already. I rarely bark, I and I love kids! I'm like the perfect dog! I have a lot of energy, so I need a family who can keep up to me! Check out my video and watch me show off for you! I am currently living with a family in an apartment building in Vancouver. But that environment doesn't suit me well. I need the calm and quiet of a detached home with a fenced yard.  TEMPERAMENT: Calm, playful, affectionate ENERGY LEVEL: Medium GETS ALONG WITH: Kids – YES Dogs – YES Cats – UNKNOWN PREY DRIVE: Yes, please be patient with me as we work on this.  HEALTH NOTES:  I have been spayed/neutered, *vaccinated & micro-chipped.

MAISSA (Local, yo) Olympia, WA

Happy day to you. My name is MAISSA and here is a little info about me: Breed: Pharoh Hound/Canaan Dog mix Age: 1 yr Gender: female Weight: 17 kg Height: 50 cm ***NOTE: Maissa really loves to be in a home with other dogs.*** My rescuer found me bitten up and full of ticks. I was screaming in the street: https://youtu.be/gLImcI_iAZk. My mommy and siblings were nowhere around. My leg was so bent, I wasn't able to straighten it. To this day, you can feel the odd placement of my healed leg, but I can walk, run & play with no problems. I am healthy now and aren't I just beautiful? My name is like me, it means slender, graceful young woman. That describes me to a T. I am quite sensitive... romantic my rescuer says. Very full of love. I can be a bit afraid of newcomers to the house, until I get go know them. Then my lovey dovey side comes out. I like to lay my head against your chest & listen to your heartbeat. Hoping ours can beat as one. Cats, dogs, no problem. I live harmoniously with a cat & 4 dogs now. People are where the goods abound though. I could just climb into your skin with you. I'm a charming and loyal cuddle bug. Some activity, then some snuggling (sofa time)... then start all over again. Ok, you can toss in some training and treats along the way. I would enjoy learning things, especially if I get to do it all with you My needs are a quiet home without young children or lots of comings and goings. Still a bit shy, it is essential that I have a confident & playful, yet non bossy, easy-going dog as a buddy. While I greatly prefer women, I am open to slowly making friends with kind, gentle, dog-loving men (patience required.) I can be quite a watchdog when outside, while indoors very quiet and catlike, though a bit of a "roo roo" talker. Trust me, it's cute. A moderately active family would work well. I need a decent amount of engagement, exercise and chew treats; otherwise I get bored. I've never been destructive in the house, but am a big time chewer and LOVE my cow ears & tracheas, beef cheeks and raw bones.  I ride in the van and go for regular hikes off leash with the pack, but am great on leash too, no pulling. I do have a graceful sashay, if I do say so myself. Being a sensitive, velcro dog who is highly attuned to the household's energy,  you'll find my endearing and gentle, yet assertive personality shines through. My coat is extremely short and is virtually non-shedding, really soft now too with multi-tonal color combos. My foster mom says, and I quote "Whoever adopts Maissa will be blessed by this gentle, delightful and devoted girl."  older, quiet children would be fine. My confidence needs to rebuild after so much change. https://youtu.be/Ws3-JWBqNbo,  https://youtu.be/sWKpZiKo050.

Energy Level: moderate I get along with: Dogs: yes Cats: likely, rather neutral about them Kids: yes Prey drive: unknown/not observed, likely low. My adopter needs to be willing to train me through these behaviours, should they arise. Fears: Meeting new people. Just need time to warm up to anyone who visits. Please be patient assisting me in my transition. Training: none Leash skills: yes, I'm quite gentle on leash House trained: yes Health notes: my left rear leg was injured, so still a bit odd yet when you feel it. 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. I will likely fly into Mo treal. Please see additional costs below.

UPDATE: Maki is currently living in a foster home on Vancouver Island and is doing very well there. He has a high energy level and so appreciates several playmates either at home or at the dog park. His foster parents say he constantly brings the ball to him, asking for playtime. He just loves forest and wilderness walks and can easily keep up with bigger dogs. Maki's relationships with humans definitely benefit from rules of contact set up by Maki himself. He's afraid of being approached when lying down or sleeping and may nip if approached on such occasions. If a human allows him these boundaries, he will be a very pleasant dog with lots of adventurous spirit. My Rescue Story: Calling all Beagle lovers!  I am Maki, a 7 year old Beagle/Jack Russel mix, originally from S.Korea.  I was abandoned in 2014 and rescued by a loving person who I have spent the last 7 years with.  Unfortunately she can no longer keep me, so she wants to send me for my best life in Canada.   My Energy level and Temperament: I have fairly high energy and walk fairly well on a leash, though I can pull at times, so a harness may be a better option for me.  I am very highly food motivated so probably will be very trainable.  There is no resource guarding, but if you try to take my treat away, I do try to hang on to it.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zGOieuctzJU&list=PLIsLTtIpe3Jw61EnG8ETvinfBaFCMesQ-&index=7 One thing that scares me is grooming and vets.  I am not aggressive, just really scared.  As long as someone holds me and pets me through the grooming process, I can be groomed.  The more you desensitize me to it the better for both of us!  If a vet needs to draw bloodwork though, they may have to use anesthesia to do it because of how scared I am.  (Bloodwork can be done on request prior to flight to Canada) Oh and bring on the lakes!  As you can see from my video, I love love love water.  So what do you say? Apply for me today and hopefully I can be with you soon! I am neutered, vaccinated and microchipped. My adoption fee of $650 + tax, includes my airfare to Vancouver or Seattle.

Hi Peoples. My name is MANTA (Mandy) and here is a little info about me: Breed: German Shepard mix Age: 4 yrs Gender: male Weight: 39 lbs/18 kg Height: tbd Highlight(s): loves to play, silly boy antics, friendly As you see in my video, I am a friendly guy, who can easily amuse himself. Find something on the ground and toss it around. Big smile. I like to play and run around. I currently live in someone's yard, but they are selling their home, so I will have nowhere to go. I doubt I will know how to survive on the street. Found when I was only a puppy, I was in a very bad shape. I tested positive for parvo. The vets fixed me up though, now I am happy and healthy. Since I get along with other dogs and enjoy play, having another dog already is a bonus score. A yard would be great, but not required, as long as we get out for plenty of fun times. I'm on the small side for a shepard, so could probably do well in a condo type sized home. https://youtube.com/shorts/TnSluge1JVs?feature=share. Energy Level: moderate to moderate high I get along with: Dogs: yes Cats: unknown Kids: yes, vids coming Fears: unknown/none observed. Please be patient assisting me in my transition.

I have been spayed/neutered, vaccinated and microchipped. My adoption fee is $750.00 CAD plus applicable taxes.

As you can see, I am a very smiley, happy boy. After being confiscated from a neglectful home, I went to a local shelter. I was around 1 year old then. I have been at the shelter since. It is time I find a home. I need a fairly experienced home that knows about & has experience with training. Okay, so I can be a bit choosy about who my friends are. Probably best if I am an only dog in the home. I certainly can intro to other dogs. If I like them, we'll get along fine https://youtu.be/Ua0EzZr-qNc. Since I have never lived in a home before, having a yard would be good, so I can acclimate to living inside better, by having plenty of outdoor time, where I feel most comfortable right now. I hope you are willing to give me time to understand a house is a great place to be. I have had basic training: leash walking with a halti, heel, sit, down, bed/place, in addition to exposure to other dogs. Continued training and review of what I know would be good. I'm a smart pupper, so could learn tricks too https://youtu.be/Lr8EJ2Zkc1I. Here I am calm at the vet's office: https://youtu.be/udM_Cc-MOgk. Energy Level: high I get along with: Dogs: Some.

Hi, my name is Marvin and I am really looking forward to being adopted or fostered! Perhaps you have seen the bio for my brother, Tigger. Please read below for my human's summary about me: Age: 1 yr          Energy level:  moderate-high          Leash skills:  progressing         Housetrained: unknown        Good with other dogs but Marvin is still a work in progress regarding cats. He loves human attention so he will likely be fine with older kids. He hasn't been tested on young children. Marvin is a very happy, eager to please big puppy. He sadly had no training up until now and while he’s eagerly learning he still needs lots of patience and further training. He walks well on a leash, great with people and dogs with a proper introduction. Marvin might be fine in a home with small animals. He has some degree of prey drive but he seems to be responsive to training in this regard. He has shown a lot of improvement so far with desensitization to chickens and cats. He also will benefit from having chew toys as he is still very puppy-like and can find shoes appealing. Marvin would love a big yard or property to run around on and an active family with dog experience. Marvin has been neutered, microchipped. and immunized - Dhpp vaccine x2, rabies, bordetella, and deworming.   Please Note: LALDR highly encourages adopters to research some local dog trainers before their dog arrives.
