Story
Good day. My name is Shamu (Chamuw) and here is a little info about me:Breed: Great PyreneesAge: 10 monthsGender: maleHighlight(s): happy, friendly, cuddler
Looking for a fella who is happy and friendly and who loves every person and dog he meets? You found him.I was rescued from a neglectful situation where I was kept in a small room and rarely walked, I have come through that ordeal with flying colors. Despite this neglrctful start in life, I am wonderfully sweet. I am great with cats and kids and very much enjoy the company of other dogs. It would be hard to imagine a more agreeable dog than me. While I certainly enjoy going for walks, I don't require a lot of exercise. Heck, I'm content to cuddle up with my foster or play with my doggie friends. I love to give hugs and insist on giving you my paw. I want you to know I am here for a hug anytime you need it. I've not been around cats, so unsure about being with one.One fear I currently have, that just needs time and patience to overcome, is getting into a vehicle. But, even when I am scared, I will never react poorly or aggressively. They say I am truly a gentle giant. My foster says I will make a tremendously terrific family pet.I'd love a home that is moderately active, but also enjoys chillin' and snugglin' on the couch. I have a lot of learning to do, as I missed out on do much. Hoping you give me the opportunity to show you what a very special boy I am.

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 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.
