The Sweetest Lab Mix You'll Ever Know! That is the headline for this girl.

My rescuer found me in a high school garden in Turkey with my seven little babies. I was actually born in the same school garden, but one day, I had a car accident. The teachers who had been feeding and giving me water arranged for my treatment, but since I wasn’t spayed, I became pregnant. As my puppies started to grow, some guardians of the students made false accusations against me, which ultimately led me to my true rescuers. They found me a safe, fenced garden where I could stay protected. Later, I was moved to a kennel in Turkey, where I could socialize with my well-behaved dog friends.

I am the most affectionate and cheerful girl you’ll ever meet. The moment I see you, my tail starts swirling in the air like a little helicopter, and I'll immediately roll over to show you my belly—because belly rubs are life!

Chewing on my toys are an absolute love of mine and I can be left alone for hours without any trouble, I am such a well-behaved girl. Though I do get easily excited over just about anything, I've never been food-protective and get along wonderfully with friendly dogs. If another dog reacts negatively towards me, I will confidently set my boundaries without aggression. In fact, I have a special way of teaching other dogs in the kennel how to get along with me, making me a natural leader in the best way.

I will thrive in an active home where I can go on long hikes through the forest or enjoy runs on the beach—both sound absolutely perfect to me! I am comfortable and know how to walk on a leash, but could use a little more training to fine-tune my manners.

When it comes to humans, they are my absolute priority—even more than food!

I adore hugging, hugging, and more hugging. If you’re looking for a loyal, loving companion who will shower you with affection and be your adventure buddy for life, then I am the one for you.

Could you be the perfect match for this sweet girl? I am ready to fill your home with love, joy, and endless cuddles!

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.
