Hiya folks. My name is SHADE and here is a little info about me:
Breed: Husky mix
Age: 2.5 years
Gender: Male
Weight: 62 lbs
Height tbd
Highlights: very intelligent, friendly, sweet, loyal
Smart, smart, very smart, really smart, super smart, smart smart... did I get enough in? Did you catch the hint, I am a very smart guy. Bet I coulld take on most any challenge you present.
Found hiding under a car in one of the most dangerous parts in Lebanon, I was really scared. Kids were throwing rocks at me. My rescuers spoke with people in the area and nobody knows how I got there. They were told anytime I came too close to a house, I would get shot at to scare me off. I'm lucky to have escaped with my life. Thanks to my rescuers who couldn't think of leaving me.
My rescuers took me to a foster home, as it is just not safe being on the streets in my country... if you are a dog anyway.
Turns out, I am a really friendly guy. Sweet and loyal to the core. I look forward to showing off my aptitude for learning things. Maybe we could do some dog sports or trick stuff.
Hoping for a home who can engage my brain power. Some outdoor fun and some indoor skills, not to mention nap time. A boy has to keep his brain in tip top shape, ya know. Waiting for your call.
Energy level: moderate
I get along with:
Dogs: yes
Cats: unknown
Kids: unknown, rescuer states yes, but no video proof
Fears: none observed. Please be patient assisting me in my transition.
Training: some leash work
Leash skills: yes. Please be prepared to continue training.
House trained: no. Please help me learn.
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.
