Story
Hello. I'm MEERKAT (Mochi), and here is a bit of info about me:Breed: Anatolian Shepard mixAge: 2-1/2 yearsGender: FemaleWeight: 24 kgHeight: ~ 52 cmCountry of origin: Middle EastHighlights: playful, affectionate, loyal, friendly, toy lover
A playful beauty with a spirit that no hardship could break, ready to trade my street-life scars for a toy-filled home in Canada!My life began on the cold streets when I was just a tiny, two-month-old pup.Early on, I learned that the world can be a tough place; I even survived a broken leg caused by someone very unkind.Thankfully, some wonderful humans saved me, but fate had one more test for me, a car hit me and fractured my left front leg right at the joint.After another big surgery and a long, brave recovery, I’ve officially retired from street life. Now, my only goal is to find a family that will keep me safe and loved forever.
You might wonder why they call me Meerkat. Well, just look at me!Not only do I have the 'look,' but I’m just as playful as one, too.I’m honestly a bit toy-obsessed; everything is a game when there’s something to chew on!I’m a friendly girl through and through, and I’ll never miss a chance to shower you with affection.I get along great with other doggie friends, but those 'meowy' kitties? They’re just a little too exciting for me to stay calm around!I’m dreaming of a loving family that enjoys a mix of silly playtime and quiet, cozy snuggles.My doctors say my front elbows might get a bit stiff with arthritis later on, so starting some yummy supplements now will keep me hopping and playing for years to come.
A home without cats would be best, but I’d love to have a dog sibling or some kids to play with, that would be a total dream come true!

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.
