Story
Hi! I’m Tilly — a little girl with a big heart and a whole lot of happy wiggles
Breed: Dachshund/Chihuahua mixAge: 1 yearGender: Female Weight: 15.5 lb Highlight(s): Good with other dogs, affectionate, social
Life didn’t start out easy for me. After I had my puppies, I was left behind and waited under a tree, hoping my family would come back. They didn’t… but that turned out to be okay, because kind humans found me and showed me that the world can be good again.
I arrived in Vancouver on January 6th and am currently staying at a foster home in North Vancouver, where I’ve been settling in beautifully. I’m a playful, spunky, confident pup who loves her walks, enjoys saying hello to every dog she meets, and trots around with a permanent smile. I may be full of personality, but I’m wonderfully quiet — I never bark!
I’m also a certified little shadow. I’ll happily follow you everywhere in the house, room to room. If there are two people at home, you might catch me trotting back and forth trying to keep track of both of you — I don’t want to miss out on any fun
I’m a quick learner too! I picked up my name and the command “come” in just one day, and I’m eager to keep learning more with my future family.
I’m confident and unbothered by everyday noises — cars, traffic, and even the vacuum don’t scare me one bit. I take new situations in stride and adapt quickly.
I’m about 1 year old, 7 kg, spayed, healthy, and very well-mannered. Once you show me where to do my business, I’ll stick to it (promise!). I’m house-trained, walk beautifully on leash, ride calmly in the car, and I’m totally crate-comfy.
I get along with everyone — kids, adults, dogs, and even cats. I’d love a doggy sibling to play with, but it’s not required. If I’m an only pup, I’ll just happily say hi to all my furry friends on our walks instead
I love my daily adventures and would enjoy one long walk or two shorter walks a day until I settle into my new home.

Fears: Non observed . Please be patient assisting me in my transition.Leash skills: Yes. Please be prepared to continue training.House trained: Yes
Health notes: I have been neutered, vaccinated and microchipped.
My adoption fee is $850.00 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.
