Story
Arrr matey, PIRATE (Pirouz) here and 'ere be a bit of info aboot me:Breed : Persian MastiffAge : 1 yr (xmas baby)Gender : maleWeight : 110 lbs Height : 43 inchesHighlights: tripaw, intelligent, fast learner, calm
Being an intelligent boy and very eager to please I am a very quick learner.
Sadly, I was dropped at the door of a rescue in the Middle East. I was abandoned by my owner because of my disability.Currently I am being fostered in a rescue area garden. I'd love to be with a family of my own and be welcome inside a home for the first time in my lifeYou will notice I only have 3 legs. Apparently I lost it in some unknown accident. I get around pretty well though. Being young, I am learning to adapt well. It is altogether possible you could get me a prosthetic leg and I could then race around like any other dog. My Canadian rescuer has kindly offered to pay for any expenses such as a splint or artificial leg so anyone who adopts me will not have to incur those costs. I am a calm boy and quite a kind soul. I get along with dogs, cats & kids. Being a chilled out kind of guy, I bet snuggling could be on the top of our hit parade list. You will find the phrase "gentle giant" suits me to a tee.

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.
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.
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.
[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.
