Hi everybody, great to emeet you! I am Amica, and here's a bit about me:
Breed: Anatolian shepherd
Age: 6 months
Gender: female
Weight: 18 pounds
Height: 50 cm
Aren’t, I just delicious??
Rescued when I was only a handful of days old:, you will not believe this story. My rescuer heard crying puppy noises near a lake outside of a major city in the Middle East. When she got closer, she noticed me in the shallow part of the lake. She wasn’t sure what to do so she called a younger boy, who was nearby to come and help save me. She wrapped me up in a bundle, and took me home and cared for me. I was crying because I was clearly separated from my mom and was hungry and wanted milk. She prepared a bottle of milk for me and nursed me back to health.

I have been staying with her ever since. I am very playful and I absolutely love playing with my ball toys. I have heard there is no toy shortage in Canada! Being a playful puppy, that will be heaven.
I get along well with everyone, woofers, peeps, meowies, grandmas, the whole sha-bang. I don’t have much to be afraid of, but when my foster mama shows me her extended finger, that’s when I know I have done something wrong and I don’t like that! So, I'll try to be really good. I walk quite well on leash (I’ve had a lot of practice.) I also I do my business on a pee pad.
My foster mom and I are having a blast together, but her landlord has been getting complaints from the neighbors and I’m going to have to leave her soon. I will miss her because after all, she is my savior, but I’m also excited about the future prospects I have in Canada.
I can’t wait to meet you so you can make my dreams of being a Canadian come true!
Energy level: moderate
I get along with:
Dogs: yes, awaiting vids
Cats: yes
Kids: unknown, rescuer states yes, awaiting vids
Prey drive: none observed. My adopter needs to be willing to train me should these behaviors arise.
Fears: none observed. Please be patient assisting me in my transition.
Training: leash and pee pad
Leash training: yes. Please be prepared to continue training.
House trained: partial. Please help me learn where to go in my new home.
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.
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 fight 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.
