Good morning. My name is SUNFLOWER (Scot) and here is a little info about me:
Breed: Caucasian Shepard/German Shepard mix
Age: 4 years
Gender: female
Weight: 28 kg
Height: 60 cm
Highlight(s): brave, loyal, independent, easily trainable
Sunflower good morning, you sure do make it like a sunny day. And I will for you. I am a loyal girl, who will love you forever. I tend to be a bit independent, but I am quite easy to train. After the life I have had, you will see I am a brave pup too. Even with what I have endured, I am very kind to people.
I used to live with a couple in the Middle East. The man used to beat me with a stick. He hit me so hard that my right front leg was broken. No one took me to the vet to care for me. They just left me alone outside. So my right front leg is crooked now.
Someone in the neighborhood found me and took me in as a foster. Now my rescuer is trying to find me a home in Canada, where I can live a safe and normal dog life.
I'd be pleased with a moderately active home. Taking strolls along a beach, down a trail or through the park would suit me fine. I'm good with other dogs, but haven't seen cats or been around kids yet. I'm a gentle girl, who would love to relax in your arms getting my ears scratched.
If you are looking for a faithful companion to hang out with, then you've come to the right profile. I'm ready to make your days sunny and beautiful.

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.
[MID-EAST DOGS] *Vaccinations: Dogs from the Middle East are vaccinated for rabies, parvo, distemper, leptospirosis, adenovirus type 1 and para-influenza. Bordetella is not given, as that has not been a problem in the Middle East.
