Please READ; I have moved to Canada and now live in Vancouver and looking for my furever home :) Name: Raha Breed(s): Husky/Saluki Age: 5 years and 11 months Gender: Fe, spayed Wgt/Hgt: 60 lb / 23-1/2 in Activity level: average/normal - about 1-1.5 hrs of walks per day Relations: good with dogs (kids too, though no video yet) / not good with cats Highlights: playful, happy, likes to cuddle with other dogs in her current foster family but it must be a trusting relationship. Raha will do well with a trusted sibling who she can sniff withand take walks with. She loves being bathed and groomed and really likes walks! I’d love to become the next pup-star in a forever home in Canada; I’m a playful girl who’s super ready to get on the spotlight of your life. HISTORY: You might’ve read your fair share of dramatic celebrity stories and this one is no different. I’m originally from the Middle East, and here stray dogs don’t have the best luck. I wasn’t having a good time on the streets when my wonderful agent (another amazing girl), aka rescuer, found me and took me to the hospital to receive the medical attention I desperately needed. https://youtu.be/L8J0I1YZVak I had been beaten up by truly awful humans and as a result, the vet said, I had a couple of broken bones and was in a lot of pain, which explained why I was crying for help when my agent discovered (rescued) me. After successfully undergoing a surgery, my lovely agent was super kind and once again lent me a helping hand. I stayed with her for a couple of weeks until I fully recovered and was ready to go back with my kind, other pup-stars; then I was transferred to the shelter where I’m staying now. I live with a bunch of other nice dogs with whom I play daily and have a cool time. But as a very versatile performer, I’m not only good with dogs; in fact, I love spending time with humans too. They’re probably my favorite audience! (I haven’t figured out how to interact with cats yet, so I’d rather stay away from them). Everything was going great. I had a place to stay and friends to hang out with, but I felt sick again. I was taken to the vet; this time it was something called intestinal obstruction, and I had to enter the operating room once more. I’m a very resilient girl, you know? As most struggling artists must be to make it in this business, I stayed strong and now I’m totally okay. However, the poor diet I was following (leftover and bones) while on the streets proved to be damaging to my stomach. For this reason, the doctor says I’ll need to stay on a healthy diet (high-fiber food and no bones or things like that) for the rest of my life to avoid having the same issue again. But hey, it’s not like it’d be super hard, right? It’s a good way to stay in shape anyway. I’m good with dogs and enjoy playing and having fun with them and all sorts of activities, but there’s something that bothers me meeting new friends… As any sensitive artist, I like being the center of attention. So, I tend to feel sad and a little depressed when I’m not the one receiving the entire spotlight. Maybe that’s why I’m sometimes misunderstood as jealous, but the truth is I only want all the affection and love I can get. I mean, I’ve spent a long time without it, so I think it’s only fair I’m the one receiving all the cuddles and kisses available. I can spend time with other dogs but the introduction needs to be slow and patient. I need to make sure they’re not after my spotlight, so I can feel safe and let my lovely personality fully out. I’m a completely healthy and vibrant-spirited artist now, so I can enjoy life as any other dog would. All I’m waiting for now is to find my forever home. I’ve been lucky to meet great people and dog friends since I was found, and I’m pretty sure I’ve collected memories to write a memoire at any time, like some of my fellow artists, but I still feel like the most important chapters are waiting ahead, would you help me with them for the years to come? I’m so ready to get the main role I’ve been waiting for my whole life, as the beloved dog in a wonderful family. Ready to be the life-agent of the sweetest pup-star and prepare to star in a show that will transcend time? My adoption fee is $650.00 CAD + applicable taxes. This includes my transportation to Canada, if I am able to be accompanied by a flight volunteer directly to Vancouver. Due to the ever-changing extenuating circumstances brought on by the Global Pandemic, we are struggling to transport dogs to Canada. Please note that additional fees may apply (beyond the adoption fee) in order to get your dog to you. LALDR will be as transparent as possible with you regarding these costs and will ask for your approval before any travel arrangements are made. The following are some examples of possible, non refundable, additional costs (note, these are estimates only and are subject to change): USA/Canada border transfer (via a Brokerage Company): $470 for 1 dog, $275/dog if 2 dogs are transported at the same time. Unaccompanied Cargo costs within Canada: $275-$475 per dog Unaccompanied Cargo costs overseas: $1,500-$3,700 per dog 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. 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. More information can be found on our website. *Vaccinations: Dogs from the Middle East are vaccinated for rabies, parvo, distemper, leptospirosis, adenovirus type 1 and para-influenza. Bordatella is not given, as that has not been a problem in the Middle East. show less
