This helps Loved At Last Dog Rescue with pet care costs.
(BONDED WITH SOLSTICE)
My name is CEREAL (Xiaoman) and here is a little info about me:
Breed: Poodle/Tibetan Terrier mix
Age: 5 yrs
Gender: male
Weight: 15 lbs
Height: 16 inches
Country of origin: China
Highlight(s): Affectionate, lively, clingy, curious, obedient
I’m a curious and lively little guy! My name 'Xiaoman' is a sweet Chinese term for 'grain buds' in early summerwhich suits my sunny personality.
Solstice and I are inseparable survivors, and we are ready to bring double the love to your home!
For four long years, Solstice and I navigated the streets together in China, relying only on each other. We were an unwavering team.
When our health began to fail (malnourished, matted coats, and Solstice developed a serious eye issue), a local "angel" intervened, and a rescuer saved us.
We were treated for severe neglect; Solstice had successful eye surgery, and I had a necessary shave-down to heal my skin.
Now, safe and healthy in foster care,my coat is growing back beautifully!
We are searching for a family to share our unbreakable bond with.
Expect an extremely affectionate and obedient companion who thrives on closeness.
Given Solstice and I have been inseparable survivors, this very strong bond can present as minor separation anxiety (sometimes referred to as "velcro" behavior).
Happily, this boy takes cues from his humans exceptionally well, and his socialization skills are progressing nicely.
Their mutual loyalty is their greatest strength!
MUST be adopted together, Solstice and I survived the impossible by sticking together.
This deep loyalty makes us adaptable, and we would likely thrive in most any calm, loving home.

Energy Level: moderate-high
I get along with:
Dogs: yes
Cats: unknown
Kids: unknown
Fears: unknown/none observed. Please be patient assisting me in my transition.
Training:
Leash skills: yes. Please be prepared to continue training.
House trained: in progress. Please help me learn where to go in my new home.
Health notes:
I will soon be neutered, though not yet microchipped. My vaccination series will be complete in a several weeks.
Our adoption fee together is $1500.00 CAD plus applicable taxes. This includes our transportation to Canada, if we are 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.

As adopters of overseas dogs will be taking their dog home from the airport, they have a couple of weeks to decide if the dog is a fit.
