My name is NYLA!

Hi friends! My name is Nyla ('Nacho' in Korea) and here is some info about me:

PHYSICAL INFO:

• Breed: Jindo Mix 


• Age: 6 years approx. 


• Gender: Female 


• Weight: 48 lbs (22 kg) 


• Height: 63 cm (paws to top of my head)


• Length: 89 cm (head to butt)


• Current Location: S. KOREA 

RESCUE STORY - I was rescued from a dog meat farm in Gongdeok, Gimje, just moments before the end!! I had witnessed many of my doggy friends being taken away in front of my eyes, which left me deeply afraid of people. When the hoomans first came to rescue me, I was frozen in fear. But then I realized they were there to help me. For this I am very grateful and over time, I have learned to trust and love hoomans, showing them my gentle soul and quiet affection.

TEMPERAMENT - They say I am a gentle and cautious dog who warms up slowly to peoples. I am curious and affectionate with familiar faces, showing my trust through gentle nudges and soft licks. Like most Jindo-mixes, I may be slow to warm up to new hoomans but once I do I really show my loving side! As you can understand, I may be reserved around physical contact, but I am always patient and tolerant when handled. I would thrive in a calm environment where my space and boundaries are respected. I do love to hang around other doggos and although I have a nice, balanced (medium) energy level, I do get excited around food (I love me some treats!).

ENERGY LEVEL – Medium

GETS ALONG WITH:

• Kids – Unknown. Haven’t met children before so unsure how I will react.


• Dogs – Yes! You can see me around pups here. 


• Cats – Unknown. Haven’t met cats before so unsure how I will react.

PREY DRIVE - Unknown. I’m not too sure how I’ll react around squirrels/rabbits etc., so my adopter needs to be prepared and willing to train me through these behaviours, should they arise.

TRAINING:

• Leash skills – Work in progress. The hoomans say I am pretty good with this as you can see here (I like to sniff!) and don't pull on the leash! However I will still need an adopter who is happy to work with me on my leash manners. A well-fitted harness and some dedicated leash training will help set me up for success!


• House trained – Work in progress. Frequent potty breaks and positive reinforcement will help me learn housetraining in my new home :)

Please Note: WCP highly encourages adopters to do some research and training on their own before their dog arrives. 

HEALTH NOTES:

• I am spayed/neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped. I will come to Canada with proof of all my vaccines and test records.


• I will be tested for Heartworm etc. before flying to Canada.


• NOTE: It is not uncommon for rescue dogs to require dental work/cleaning after they are adopted. West Coast Paws does not cover the costs of dental work and/or vet visits. These costs are the financial responsibility of the adopter.

ADOPTION FEE:

• 
  

  My adoption fee is $728.00 CAD (including 5% GST & 7% PST), which includes my airfare, if a flight volunteer is found directly to Vancouver.
