Take the Pet Home
This helps Loved At Last Dog Rescue with pet care costs.
Urgency is now part of my story, as a new law in my country means our refuge can no longer stay open.
Finding a home as soon as possible is essential for my friends and me, and I’m hoping my funny, sociable spirit is exactly what you’ve been looking for!
Hello, I'm SAVORY (Sadie), and here's a bit about me:
Breed: Likely a Labrador Retriever Mix
Age: 2 years (born June 30, 2023)
Gender: Female
Weight: 54 lbs
Height: 24 in
Country of Origin: Republic of Georgia
Highlights: sociable, intelligent, dominant, strong, funny, fast learner, active
If you are in the mood for a funny, sociable girl with elegant lines, look no further.
Born safely at the refuge after my mother was rescued while pregnant, I’ve thankfully grown up without trauma.
However, due to the sudden closure of our sanctuary, I’m now in urgent need of a family.
Being the largest and strongest of my litter, I am more than ready to step out into the world and find my place by your side!
High intelligence and a fast-learning nature define who I am.
While I possess great strength and can be a bit 'bossy' with other dogs, I respond wonderfully to confident, experienced leaders who can teach me boundaries.
Most puppy destructiveness is in the past, though having plenty of things to chew on is still a must!
My personality is a mix of strength and silliness, guaranteed to keep you entertained.
An active lifestyle is mandatory for a high-energy girl like me!
Whether it’s acting as your running, hiking, or biking partner, I’m eager for any adventure.
As a true Lab mix, water is my element, boating trips or running on the beach would be a dream come true.
A family that enjoys fast interactive games or agility training would be the perfect match for my spirited nature.
Watch me in action! Nov 2025: https://youtube.com/shorts/tIomKuBlL7E.
Energy level: high
I get along with:
Dogs: yes.
Cats: unknown (but probably not)
Kids: unknown (probably do well with older kids)
Fears: None observed. Please be patient with me during my transition.
Training:
Leash training: Yes. Please be prepared to continue training.
House trained: Yes. Please help me learn where to go in my new home.
Health notes:
I have been spayed, 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.
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.
