Take the Pet Home
This helps Loved At Last Dog Rescue with pet care costs.
A critical message: Due to instability for rescue teams, I have an urgent need to find a safe, forever home as soon as possible.
Good day. My name is ROAD and here is a little info about me:
Breed: Icelandic Sheepdog mix
Age: 3 yrs
Gender: male
Weight: 11 kg
Country of origin: Republic of Georgia
Highlight(s): affectionate, enthusiastic, friendly
Greeting everyone with enthusiastic tail wags and generous kisses is my signature move!
I am incredibly affectionate with people and ready to dedicate my loyalty to you.
Mine is a story of remarkable survival and resilience. Living near a highway for over two years after being abandoned, waiting for an owner who never returned.
Struck by a truck, a local rescuer witnessed the incident, stopped traffic, and rushed me to a clinic for life-saving surgery.
I was named Road to mark where my new life began.
Six months of recovery led to excellent health today (likely a smaller Husky mix!). With other dogs, showing no aggression, but caution is common, a lingering fear stemming from past attacks by strays.
Give me time and protection, and I can improve and even live with a calm, easy-going dog.
Best thriving in a calm, loving home—ideally as the only dog or with well-mannered companions, to continue my emotional healing.
Energy Level: moderate
I get along with:
Dogs: some... calm, well mannered ones likely
Cats: unknown
Kids: unknown
Fears: Other dogs. Please be patient assisting me in my transition.
Training:
Leash skills: some. Please be prepared to continue training.
House trained: think so, verifying. Please help me learn where to go in my new home.
Health notes:
I have been spayed/neutered, vaccinated and microchipped.
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 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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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. You will NOT be asked to pay a passenger fee on top of the cargo fee.
[MID-EAST] *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.
[TURKEY] Dogs from Turkey receive a 4D SNAP test to include Leishmania, Heartworm, Ehrlichia, & Anaplasma, as well as Giardia, Parvo, Corona & Distemper.

Take the Pet Home
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.
