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. Hello! My name is PIERRE (Peter) and here is some info about me: Breed: Terrier mix Age: 3 years Gender: Male Wgt: 10 kg Hgt: 53 cm Discovered near the city dump by some kind humans, I was struggling on the street by myself. Nobody knows what happened to me, but my leg was damaged. Despite my past, I am trusting and love to be around people. My rescuers describe me as friendly and sweet! One thing to know about me is that I am now a tripaw. But don't worry, I won't let this slow me down. I love to play and you may be surprised how fast I can chase after the other dogs at the dog park!  More vids: https://youtu.be/7Bb_ke9pEsw, https://youtube.com/shorts/luGBNveuIy0,   https://youtu.be/OItwMz3mYMw Energy level: Moderate Gets along with: Dogs - Yes Cats - unknown Kids - Yes, await video Prey drive: None observed. My adopter needs to be willing to train me through these behaviours, should they arise. Fears: None observed. No signs of aggression noted. Training: none. Leash skills: no. Please be prepared to train me. House trained: Unknown, please be prepared to help me learn! 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 and should begin within a week or so AFTER arrival. Check out courses in your local area and enroll right away. 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. Health notes: I am a tripaw (I only have 3 legs.) I have been spayed/neutered, *vaccinated & micro-chipped. My adoption fee is $700.00 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 ongoing limits on Vancouver flights yet, additional fees will apply if flying from another city. Unaccompanied Cargo costs within Canada: $375-$500 per dog. LALDR will be as transparent as possible with you regarding these costs. I will be on the first available flight, as I need to leave the Middle East as soon as possible. If a flight directly to Vancouver is not found quickly after I've found a family, the extra cost for cargo to Vancouver from Montreal or Toronto will NOT be optional. If you would like to increase the chance of your dog coming sooner, the rescuer may be able to secure a cargo flight from the Middle East. This cost will likely be between $1200-4000 USD, dependent on size.

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.

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

If I have an adopter, I can come to Vancouver soon! My name is Pizza and here is a little info about me: Breed: Chihuahua/Terrier Mix (this is a guess!) Age: 4.5 year old Gender: Female, Spayed Weight: 7 kg, 16 lbs Height: 8 in I was found as a stray dog and was transfered to a small shelter in Middle East. Nobody adopted me for months so they put me in euthanasia list because they were running out of space there. Thankfully a kind foster took me in temporary to save my life. She couldn't believe nobody came forward to adopt me. I am very charming, friendly and have a goofy personality that will make you laugh! I get along with everyone, love to play with other dogs. My energy level is moderate to low, I can be an only dog or have other dogs as brother and sisters... I am happy either way! My foster mom named me pizza because I tried to steal her pizza slice the first day we met! Please adopt me so I can fly to Canada to find unattended pizza slices! Can't wait to meet you and make you smile. :)     Energy Level: Moderate/low I get along with: Dogs: yes Cats: unknown Kids: yes, no video proof Prey drive: unknown/not observed. My adopter needs to be willing to train me through these behaviours, should they arise. Fears: unknown/none observed. Training: basic Leash skills:  Please be prepared to train me.

Hi There!  My name is Pong, I am a 4 year old male Jindo/Welsh Corgi mix that weighs 12 kg (26 lbs) and stand 12 inches high.  (gotta love those Corgi legs!)  My siblings and I were taken into the city pound in Jan of 2019 when I was only about 2 months old.  All my siblings have been adopted.  One of the volunteers fostered me until May 2021 and since then I have been living in a private shelter with many other dogs.  I am so looking forward to my forever home! My handler says I can be shy at first, but warm up very quickly, allowing strangers to pet me if they have treats :) Once I get to know someone, I allow lifting and belly rubs.  She says I don't mind kids, but seem a bit uncomfortable when young kids make loud noises or make sudden moves, so a home without super young kids would be ideal.  If they treat me gently it would be ok.  You can see me here walking on a leash with a child. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Zqt5e9Elk8&list=PLIsLTtIpe3Jw9v2jPrZPzOeE2uVV_flZx&index=4 I am good with other dogs.  If a new dog is too energetic, I tend to avoid them, but generally have very good feelings towards other dogs, being more comfortable with dogs around the similar size.  I lived with a cat from Feb 2019 until moving to the shelter in May of 2021 and never had any problem with it.  If there was one running away on the street I might chase it, but in all probability would have no problem living with a cat with the proper introduction. My energy level is moderate to lower moderate, I like outdoor activities, and like to rest and be calm at home.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Mf3bNEGzeM&list=PLIsLTtIpe3Jw9v2jPrZPzOeE2uVV_flZx&index=5  Resting on the couch is one of my favourite things.  I am also able to get in and out of cars on my own and am quite a good leash walker.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=26tKoMi4oSo&list=PLIsLTtIpe3Jw9v2jPrZPzOeE2uVV_flZx&index=7  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eGqdBlJA6Eo&list=PLIsLTtIpe3Jw9v2jPrZPzOeE2uVV_flZx&index=8 There have been no signs of aggression other than some growls if a dog approaches when I am eating.  There is no resource guarding with people.  I can mark my territory in a new place, so need to be watched for that.  There are no signs of separation anxiety and I rarely bark. So what do you say?  Want an adorable buddy?  Apply for me today! Please Note: LALDR highly encourages adopters to research some local dog trainers before their dog arrives.

My name is Poppy (Pops for short) and here is a little info about me: Breed: Pitbull Age: 2-1/2 years Gender: Female Weight: 45 lbs Height: 20 inches Highlight(s): happy, loves cheese, active, strong I'm a bouncy, happy, full of beans and energy pupper. I was abandoned by my owners when I was still lactating and they gave all my puppies away. I'm not sure if this was my first litter or not. I think I was used for breeding. A kind lady took me in, as no one else would take responsibility for me. As much as she tried to keep me at her home, there was no space due to her rescuing cats and her pack of already rescued dogs. So due to her being British and my breed not being allowed to enter the UK, I can't stay with her, in case she has return home. Along with time, space and the summer heat, she felt it best to pay to put me up in a kennel which is comfy and cool. But I'm so bored and only my minimal needs are being met. I really want my loving forever home. Please be patient with me though, as it's been a rough ride so far. I'm a live in the moment kinda gal and will do anything for cheese. I have a bit of a deformed/weakened front leg (vet report and xrays available.) This doesn't stop me bouncing around. Although when I'm tired the paw and lower leg bend right over. So, you will need to tell me to rest when required. Other than that, I'm all good. I think I would suit a home with no children or cats, as I can get super exuberant. When I get excited, I can nip, so need a knowledgeable owner to train me to chill out. I've been lacking in love and attention and cooped up, so I'm sure with regular exercise, I'd tone down some. Probably best as an only dog to start, until I am trained how to calm myself. Then I could be introduced to dogs who are tolerant of my excitement level. I will need someone who is used to my breed and has the patience and time to work with me, give me lots of love and strong training, so we can be best of buddies for life. Are you the family where I can be loved and never abandoned again. Energy Level: high I get along with: Dogs: unknown Cats: most likely no Kids: unknown, but likely best not given my energy Fears: Unknown/none observed. Please be patient assisting me with my transition. Training: basic training needed yet Leash skills: some. I pull, but I'm small. Please be prepared to train me. House trained: No. Please be prepared to help me learn! Health notes: Deformed/weakened front leg. I have been spayed, vaccinated & microchipped. My adoption fee is $700.00 CAD plus applicable taxes.

A very good day to you. My name is PUNITA and here is a little info about me: Breed: Saluki/Terrier mix Age: 11 months Gender: female Weight: 19 kg Height: 50 cm Highlight(s): friendly, energetic, good with cats A friendly girl who is happy to meet new people, I am hoping you are looking for a social little sweetheart. I was born on the streets of Muscat in Oman. I lived in a dangerous and busy area. Apparently a car ran over my siblings, so a local rescuer stepped in to take care of me, my sister and my mum. My mum has now been adopted in Canada and is living in Montreal. My turn now. I have been living at the shelter since my rescue and don't get out much. This is sad for me, as I so enjoy when I get the opportunity to go for a walk. I sniff everything in sight. I get along with all the many dogs where I live and greet new ones with a sniff and a waggy tail. So, if you have another dog, I am perfectly happy with that. But if not, you and I can become the best of buddies. I am cat friendly as well. Though I haven't any experience with kids, I am such a happy-go-lucky girl, I would do fine with dog savvy, respectful kids https://youtu.be/5XdlhTMLmWI.

I am a typical terrier, scruffy, cute, smart and adorabe! Please keep working with me on my training, I like to learn tricks.

Height: 12 in I was found as a stray with a deformed front leg when I was about 2 months old. The vet decided the best is to amputated my front leg, it was much shorter and nothing could be done to save it. I recovered fully in a foster home in Middle East, I'm getting big and doing well. I have a very happy spirit, love to play like any other puppy! I am great with other dogs and love people and kids. I am an active boy that loves to run around but because I am missing a front leg a home with no stairs is ideal. Would be great if there is another dog in the house. Also I like to find a family that can commit to train me and spend time with me.

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 Relations: good with dogs (kids too, though no video yet) / not good with cats Highlights: playful, happy, desires all the attentio 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. 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. My agent thinks that I’d be better in a home with no other pets to avoid any misunderstanding and let my creative soul shine. At least in the beginning. Don’t get me wrong, I can spend time with other pets, male dogs are the coolest, 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.

Hello, I just arrived to Canada! My name is Rainbow (Rosie) and here is a little info about me: Breed: Spitz/Terrier mix Age: 3 years old Gender: Female Weight: 19 pounds Height: 14 inches I was rescued as a lonely stray, found wandering the streets in the Middle East. Since being at the shelter, I’ve had a lot of opportunities to interact with other dogs and people, as well as showcase my beautiful grin. My rescuers have complimented me on my companionable temperament. I’m pleased to report that I’m a nice blend of playful, yet gentle and mild-mannered, yet interactive. I’ll quite happily accept your love and attention. Kids and other dogs are fine by me too. The more the merrier.  https://youtu.be/bY1LwPeV03U. I may not be very big, but I have long elegant legs. Great for running, hiking or just wrapping my paws around you for a hug. You were awaiting a friendly girl who loves to get attention, right? Here I am. Energy Level: Moderate I get along with: Dogs: yes Cats: unknown Kids: yes Prey drive: none observed. My adopter needs to be willing to train me through these behaviours, should they arise. Fears: I’m a confident lady, with no known / observed fears. Training: None yet. I'm excited to leave behind my street-dog status and learn to be a family member. I'll need some guidance along the way. Leash skills: no. Please be prepared to train me. House trained: No. Please be prepared to help me learn! Health notes: I have been spayed, vaccinated and microchipped. My adoption fee is 750.00 CAD plus applicable taxes. This includes my transportation to Canada, if I am able to be accompanied by a flight volunteer directly to Vancouver.

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.

Maybe I could pull you on skates. Wink. My mom was pregnant on the streets in Cleveland, Texas. Her rescuer brought her in and she had 9 puppies. Fortunately, 7 of us survived! I have been looking for my forever home for quite some time now and am sooooo ready to find it! Almost any home I would do fine in, but definitely need someone who is able to handle a very strong puppy. I am quite active https://youtu.be/HGcBpRfNADM.

Good day. My name is RANGER (Damoon) and here is some info about me: Breed: Lab/Husky/Shepard (Estrela Mtn Dog) Age: 3 yrs Gender: m Weight: 66 lbs Height: 25-1/2 inches Me and my siblings (Denali & Domino, both already adopted through LAL) were found in the street when we were young puppies. Our mama died of an infection, so our rescuer made sure we would be safe. We are with our rescuer's mother right now, but can only stay a limited time. We will have to go to a shelter soon, if we don't find homes. I am an absolute gentleman, who is quite kind hearted. I can be nervous at first, meeting new people is scary some times, but with some time, love and treats I will become your new best friend. There is a kitty in my current home, so I'm are fine with a feline. I haven't been around many children though. I can live well with other dogs, but best if I eat on my own.  I love my doggo friends and like to play with them.  I'm really a pretty relaxed fellow, patient too. It would be nice to be able to go out and play like normal puppies, but sadly it isn't safe here in our country for us to do that. Hence, I am only have the rudimentary skills with a leash. https://youtu.be/fMAshb0DN20. A moderately active to chilled out home would be mighty fine with me. Being a young dog yet, I like to romp around playing, but I really enjoy just hangin' out and getting belly scratches, chomping on a toy & watching things around me. You know, the suave, sophisticated, observant James Bond type. Wink. I do have a bit of food aggression, but it has gotten better with training. I could use continued help on that. I am housetrained though. So, what do you want to do first? Go to the beach? Snowshoeing? Maybe we could go for a nice country drive and take in the sights... well, the smells for me. Maybe a relaxing hike into the woods or maybe we could just take a snooze together watching a movie. Whatever it is, I can't wait to do it with you. I am currently in a foster home, so have learned the ropes of being an indoor dog. Energy level: moderate I get along with: Dogs: yes Cats: yes Kids: unknown Prey drive: low/none observed. My adopter needs to be willing to train me through these behaviours, should they arise. Fears: initially meeting new people. Training: very little Leash skills: some. Please be prepared to train me. 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 & micro-chipped. My adoption fee is $650.00 CAD, this includes my airfare to Canada.

Good day, kind hoomans. I have recently arrived in Vancouver, and I would love to be adopted by you. My name is RAYA and here is a little info about me: Breed: pointer/Shepherd Mix Age: 18 months Gender: Male Weight: 20kg Height: (ground to shoulder) 55cm I was recently brought to Canada from the Middle East. Boy, was I glad to be out of there. My story will tell you everything about me.  Where I come from, many people do not like dogs.  To be honest, some are cruel and heartless, but there are wonderful people who rescue dogs like me. When my rescuers found me, I had a broken leg and was starving. They also noticed I had 6 broken teeth.There were burns and multiple gunshot wounds all over my body. It’s amazing that I’m  still alive!! The vet tried to fix my leg but with multiple fractures and poor healing, he had no choice but to amputate my left front leg. I am now officially a tripaw.  After all I have been through, I still haven’t lost my smile.  My foster says I am super friendly and kind. My energy level is moderate, and I love to snuggle on the couch. As my vid shows, I am learning to walk on a leash, and I’m doing quite well. My foster is also teaching me some basic commands; in my video, you can see how nicely I sit. I’m not fully house trained yet, but it will only be a matter of time.  I currently live with other doggie friends and we get on very well. As my nature is submissive, I have a gentle way about me. Don’t worry if you don’t have another dog. I will be happy to have all your attention to myself.  We could meet other dogs on our walks. I have not met a cat, so I can’t tell you how I would react. My foster says I like kids, so stay tuned for my upcoming video.  Overall, I’m a wonderful dog who has been through so much but continues to be loving and kind. The next step on my journey is a forever home. Hope you will come and visit me soon.  Energy Level: moderate  I get along with: Dogs: yes Cats: unknown  Kids: My foster says yes, but no video yet to show you. Prey drive: not observed. My adopter needs to be willing to train me through these behaviours, should they arise. Fears: None observed. Please be patient assisting me in my transition Training: some - learning basic commands.  Leash skills: some. Please be prepared to continue my training. https://youtube.com/watch?v=F8YlXabWPKE House trained: In progress. Please be prepared to guide me in my new home.
