URGENT! Due to a new law enacted in my country, the rescuers can't retain the refuge, so dogs need homes before the end of the year. Please help.
Good day. I'm Kaysee (Daisy) and here's a bit if ingo about me:
Breed: Jack Russell Terrier mix
Age: 4 yrs
Gender: Female
Weight: 16 kg (35 lbs)
Height: 47 cm (18-1/2 in)
Country of origin: Republic of Georgia
Highlights: confident, loves games, active, intelligent, inquisitive, independent, feisty
Being confident, I am always into learning new games, especially things like agility skills, hoping you are into active fun and adventure too.
My rescuer thinks I might have been abandoned or lost by a tourist. I was found eating trash by a dumpster and was soaking-wet from days in the rain. (Our city is the rainiest in the Black Sea region.) My hind leg or hip seemed to be injured and I had trouble walking. Thankfully, they brought me to the shelter, so I could be safe.
Since I am inquisitive and intelligent, it would be terrific if you could teach me new things. I really love going for walks and am excellent on leash.
Other enjoyments include swimming and playing in the water.
I am affectionate and love getting attention from my humans. For example, I really enjoy being brushed, groomed, and having my teeth brushed. I'm also an excellent model and can pose very nicely. I love wearing different outfits and getting my picture taken.
I am an adventurous eater, too and like trying out different kinds of food, like carrots, pumpkin, and peanut butter.
While I play well with other dogs, if persistently annoyed, I will in typical Jack fashion, give them a what for. So probably good if I have a sibling that they understand boundaries. I'm not competitive though and will share human attentions with others.
My rescuers noticed that I tend to sit on one haunch, which rubs my ankle raw on the ground. When treated with ointment and wrapped in a stretchy bandage though, I keep pulling it off. My leg is healed though. They think it may be due to stress from overcrowding. Vets here can’t find anything wrong with me, but unfortunately, vet care here is poor. I would benefit from more personal attention, which they find alleviates much of my distress.
Overall, I'm a nice little dog, who just needs a chance to flourish in a regular home environment.
Energy Level: Moderate
I get along with:
Dogs: Yes
Cats: Unknown, but probably no
Kids: Unknown, but probably yes
Fears: None observed. Please be patient with me during my transition.
Training:
Leash training: Yes, superb. Please be prepared to continue training.
House trained: Yes. Please help me learn where to go in my new home.
Health notes: It is uncertain if from a past injury or if some other hip issue exists. I could use a further eval.
I have been spayed/neutered, vaccinated and will be microchipped before arrival.
My adoption fee is $800.00 CAD plus applicable taxes. This includes my transportation to Canada, if I am able to be accompanied by a flight volunteer directly to Vancouver.

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.
