Story
I will be arriving to Vancouver Mid-Sept.
Greetings everyone. My name is ZAHARA and here is a little info about me:Breed: Viszla/Dachshund mixAge: 3 yrsGender: femaleWeight: 28 lbsCountry of origin: MexicoHighlight(s): Energetic, Daring, Outgoing, Brave
Gang way, here I come. Looking for fun times and lovely living in Canada.I was given away by my original owner, who is a travel nurse and had to relocate. My new home didn’t treat me well; I wasn’t fed well and was tied down all day and all night long. I ended up being malnourished and was dumped at the local marketplace. The local rescue staff was contacted by the shop vendor and they took me in two years ago.I am a tough as nails pup, super loving and playful. I have super high energy, making me a great activity companion. I am perfect as an outdoors dog. I have a good nose, run super fast, and would love to go on hikes in the Pacific Northwest. I have been well leash trained. Maybe scent work is in my future... agility? flyball? tracking? Frisbee? I'm sure there are all sorts of sports out there we could do together. Maybe you are a runner needing that friend to pace you. Or a swimmer who wants a paddling buddy.Let's find what suits us and go for it. I'm brave and daring, are you?Being an outgoing girlie, I will do well being in your social circle. I get along withe other dogs too. My rescuer states I am good with kitties as I interacted well with them around the ranch and good with kids, as well. No vids for either of these yet though. I lived in a home for a few months so know about waiting to go potty. It has been a little while, so a refresher about it would be good. An additional note, my rescuer says I have tremendous leadership skills as I was the dog they used to introduce new dogs to the ranch. How's that for all around experience?I am just hoping for an active family. Preferbly with a yard, but if we get out enough, that isn't a requirement.Vids to come.

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.
