Story
Hello!! My name is WOODIE Here is some information about me:
Breed: Chihuahua Mix
Age: 4 years old
Gender: Male
Weight: 24 lbs
Height: tbd
Highlights: playful, dog & cat friendly, house trained
Hi! I’m Woody — and I can’t wait to meet you.
I’m a 4-year-old chihuahua mix with a golden coat, a big happy grin, and a perfectly portable 24-pound frame. Small enough to scoop up, sturdy enough for adventures, and sweet enough to melt your heart.
Not long ago, I was in a high-kill shelter. It was loud and uncertain, but I never stopped being the nice guy everyone says I am. I shared my kennel politely with other dogs, kept my tail wagging, and showed the humans that I’m friendly, gentle, and full of love.
And then my second chance came.
I’ll be travelling to the Lower Mainland on February 29, and I’ll be fostered in Coquitlam, where everyone will get to learn more about my amazing personality. I’ll be staying in a home with both dogs and kitties, so we’ll get to see just how wonderful I am with the whole furry crew. So far, I’ve proven I’m happy-go-lucky and great with other dogs — I truly enjoy having buddies around.
At 24 pounds, I’m the perfect small size — easy to bring along on outings, perfect for cuddling on the couch, and just right for cozying up beside you at the end of the day. I have that classic retriever sweetness, just in a more compact little body.
The scary chapter of my life is behind me. Now I’m heading toward soft beds, kind hands, and a forever family who will love my cheerful spirit and gentle heart.
My bags are packed.My tail is wagging.Lower Mainland… here I come.
Love,Woodie

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.
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 the dog is shown to be good with children we will approve homes with children 8 years or older. More information can be found on our website.
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 charged the passenger fee in addition to this.
[MID EAST DOGS] *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.
