Story
Meet Luvie!
Breed: Spitz/Welsh Corgi MixAge: 8 yearsGender: Female Weight: 15 lb Highlight(s): Good with other dogs, calm, affectionate
Hi, I’m Luvie, an 8-year-old girl with a gentle heart and a love for the quiet life. I was found as a stray in a rural area in February 2024, and I’m now hoping to find a loving forever home.
I can be a little shy around strangers, but offer me a tasty treat and some patience, and I’ll slowly warm up! Once I feel comfortable, I enjoy gentle pets. I tend to feel a little more at ease around women, but kindness is what matters most to me.
I'm good with greeting new dogs, but I rarely play with them. I'm much more comfortable around similar-sized or smaller dogs rather than larger ones. Generally, I'm a dog who is more interested in activities with people than with other dogs. Recently, I had a chance to meet a dog of a similar size, and I was very happy! You can see how happy I was in one of my videos.
During walks, I don't get too excited; I just slowly enjoy sniffing around. I'm still a bit nervous about the urban environment, so I walk much better in quiet places. When I spot cats on the street, I usually try to avoid them and tend to focus more on my handler instead. However, I haven't met an indoor cat yet.
All I need is a loving home where I can give lots of cuddles, and be your happy little companion. Could you be my forever home?
I get along with:Dogs: yesCats: potentially yesKids: yes
Energy Level: Low, I love laid-back lifestyle.
Fears: Non observed. Please be patient assisting me in my transition.Leash skills: Yes. Please be prepared to continue training.House trained: Yes 50% Pee-Pads / 50% Outdoor
Health notes: I have been neutered/spayed, vaccinated and microchipped.
My adoption fee is $750.00 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.
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.
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.
I get along well with other dogs, especially those my size or smaller, although I prefer spending time with my humans rather than playing with doggy friends. I’m also gentle and have no resource-guarding issues. I may be potentially compatible with cats, and I usually avoid cats I see outdoors.
I’m a low-energy girl who loves a relaxed lifestyle. Quiet walks are my favorite, as busy city environments can make me nervous. I rarely bark and haven’t shown separation anxiety.
I’m still learning my housetraining (50% outdoors, 50% pee pads), and I’m afraid of getting into cars, so I’ll need someone patient to help lift me in.
If you’re looking for a calm, sweet companion to share peaceful days, cozy moments, and lots of love, I might be your perfect match.
