Hello everybody, cheeeeese... aren’t I just a cutie? Well, that’s what I hear people say about me and my smile.
I was bought by a young man who intended to give me to his girlfriend. I must say, she would have been ecstatic to receive me as a gift. But unfortunately, I got parvo and he abandoned me at the clinic as a puppy. Needless to say, my life was turned upside down. Thankfully, my rescuer found out about me at the clinic and paid for all the expenses related to my treatment. I am completely healthy now. Thanks to her!
I am currently living in a foster home. I have a foster mom and a foster kitten brother, Phishi (also posted.) My foster mom rescued a kitten that had some issues with the muscles in his legs and can’t walk well. We are very good friends! I love to play with my kitten brother, we are quite bonded: https://youtu.be/Lg6JjMA5KBs. So much so, that we'd love to be adopted together. Loved at Last said we can be a twofer. Adopt me and kitty comes along for the ride. How's that for a deal?
I am extremely playful and mischievous, but also very smart. I learn everything extremely fast. Because I am so playful, I am constantly looking for toys and playmates, so I’m always chasing my kitten brother up and down the sofas, and he plays hide and go seek with me. Well, either that, or he’s running away from me HAH! We have lots of fun together!
I would love to continue my shenanigans in Canada with you! I would make a great addition to any family. I love other dogs and cats, so a fellow brother or sister would be great to have. I hope to meet you very soon!

Health notes: I had parvo when first found. No issues after treatment.
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 850.00 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.
