Hi there! My name is Sebastian! I am super cute and cuddly, but also a smarty pants! Read on to learn more about me!
Breed: Husky / German Shepherd mix
Age: 9 Months
Gender: Male
Weight: 22 kg (48 lb)
Height: 50 cm
My siblings (Samuel and Soffie) had a rough introduction to the world! My rescuer found us in a box by a trash bin when we were only one month old. We were all scared, but at least we had each other to stay warm until someone found us. We were found with parvovirus, but my rescuer had us all treated for it. We have recovered and are doing well!
I’m currently living in the shelter, along with my siblings, and let me tell ya! I’m just about ready to go. I’ve out grown this place and I’m ready for a new beginning. Could you be the one to offer me that? My rescuer says I’m a smarty pants, agile, and very energetic. I’ll make you laugh and then come cuddle with you. I can be calm when it’s needed but given my age, I love to play and do activities.
I would do best in a home that can provide the mental and physical stimulation I need in order to thrive. Given my breed, I’m smart and will want something to keep my mind busy. I need physical activity as well! If you go for hikes, I’d love to join! I get along with other dogs, and I like people! I haven’t met any kids yet though, same with cats, however my rescuer notes that I haven’t displayed any prey drive. Don’t forget to pick up a lint roller if you choose to make my an addition to your family.
Energy Level: High
I get along with:
Dogs: Yes
Kids: Unknown
Cats: Unknown
Prey drive: Not observed. My adopted needs to be willing to train me through these behaviours should they arise.
Fears: None observed. Please be patient in assisting me in my transition.
Training: I am house trained and leash trained! But I’m the prime age for absorbing information! I would love to expand on my learning.
Health Notes: found with parvovirus at one month old. Has been treated and recovered. I am neutered and vaccinated.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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] *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.
