Story
Looking for a little buddy? I'm ALLEN and here is a bit about me:Breed: Chihuahua MixAge: 12 yrsGender: MaleWeight: 14 lbsHeight: 14-1/2 inchesCountry of origin: USA, New MexicoHighlights: Mellow, sweet, gentle, quiet, affectionate senior
Ready for a peaceful life? I am a delightful, mellow senior who just needs a soft bed, a cozy home, and lots of treats!Found wandering as a stray on the streets, I was brought to a local shelter. After spending about a week there, the kind rescue tagged me and placed me into a loving foster home. Knowing my people are close by makes me happy.Being extremely gentle and sweet, I spend many hours of the day asleep. I am so quiet that my foster family says they have never even heard me bark! Showing my affectionate side in a very quiet way, I wiggle my little stump of a tail when my people approach me. Doing very well with other dogs, big or small, I am not anxious when left alone.Though I am housetrained, I do wear a belly band inside the house... just in case, as I will mark objects (I promise I don't mark much!)I am losing my eyesight, but can still see, especially in bright light. I can be particular about my foods—I love Purina Beneful foods and treats! Though maybe through experimenting, you can find something I like that is healthier.A quiet home that appreciates a low-energy senior who simply wants to share space with a loving, patient person would suit me best.
Energy Level: LowI get along with:Dogs: YesCats: UnknownKids: Unknown
Fears: none observed. Please be patient assisting me in my transition.Training:Leash skills: in progress. Please be prepared to train me.House trained: Yes. Need belly band though for security. Please help me learn where to go in my new home.
Health notes:Losing eyesight, but can still see in bright light. Tail is cropped.I have been neutered, vaccinated and microchipped.My adoption fee is $500.00 CAD plus applicable taxes. This includes my transportation to near the US/Canadian border.
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.
