Canaan Dog puppies and dogs in Aldergrove, British Columbia

Hello out there. My name is Lizelle and here is a little info about me: Breed: Canaan Dog mixAge: 3 yearsGender: FemaleWeight: 40 lbsHeight: 20 inches NEW UPDATE Sept '24: I am walking again... on 3 legs anyway. I am no longer fully paralyzed and can move about. Video coming soon. Hope you are ready fir a bundle of joy. PUPDATE: Wooohooo, lookie me. I am showing strength putting weight standing on my left rear leg. https://youtu.be/mH3xXor5g1c. I am currently living in a care facility in Alberta and my mobility has improved. I'm up on 3 legs moving about.  I am trying so hard, as I really, really want to walk again. But until I can, I still race around with my buddies with my wheels. I have a great zest for life that not even the limited use of my rear legs dampens.  My start in life was challenging. I was hit by a car at two months of age. A lady found me, but did not immediately take me to a vet, as she had no money to do so. She did her best for me, but sadly the delay in treatment meant I couldn't use my back legs. But because of my determination to walk again I am now able to stand. I am a true fighter and my foster mom says it won't be long before I am walking again. Being very affectionate, I just love hoomans. In fact, I get very sad when my foster mom gives attention to other dogs. So if you have lots of loving to give, I am ready. Sometimes I get sad without attention and won’t eat my food. If there are other dogs in the house, I would love to play with them. My paralysis makes that challenging, but as you can see from my video I am up to it. I drag myself around with great skill. I am incontinent so my schedule is predictable and with time and patience, we have been able to work out a schedule.  My foster mom says I am eager to learn, and I want to do everything I can to be the best dog ever. Although I am very comfortable with other dogs, I don’t know about cats or kids. Sadly, my life has been spent inside a home, so my dream is to experience the great outdoors. I would love to have a backyard that I could explore. One thing to know about me is that I have a strong bond with my buddy Bondoka. We wrestle and play together: https://youtu.be/_v86Pfow16w and she cares for me! My ideal home would be one where we could visit one another sometimes. However, we are up for adoption separately, as our foster mom says that since we are both so outgoing and friendly we will adjust well to being separated.  Even with my special needs, I know there are wonderful people in Canada who would give me a chance for a better life. Please be my guardian angel :) New Aug vids: https://youtu.be/_o_2PgZH-n0, https://youtube.com/shorts/kHUCbalp-Jw.

My adopter needs to be willing to train me through these behaviours, should they arise. Fears: Not having a forever hooman to love me. Please be patient assisting me in my transition. Training: noneLeash skills: No. But even with a wheelchair, I can still be taught how to walk beside you & not pull.House trained: No. I am incontinent due to my paralysis. Health notes: Disabled. The vet tells me my pelvis was broken when I was hit by a car. My back bones are not straight and my feet aren’t right - they will need braces, if I am to fully walk again. Walking on 3 legs again. I am soon to be spayed/neutered. I am vaccinated and microchipped. My adoption fee is by donation.

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.

Hi, my name is LUKA and here is a bit about me:Breed: Canaan Dog/Pharoah Hound mixAge: 1 yearGender: MaleWeight: 28 kgHeight: 57 cmHighlights: sweet, gentle, nervous near roads yet, playful, protective, devoted I am a sweet and loving pupper looking for my forever home.Born on the streets of Egypt, I have had a tough start to life. While my mom tried to do her best for us, we were unfortunately poisoned, and I was the only one of my siblings to survive. After that, I was attacked by another dog and suffered an injury to my back paw: https://youtube.com/shorts/n0G01suUo1Q?si=jvz1IMGCFSwUCFkj. Thankfully, I was saved by a kind human who took me in and helped me to recover at their home. https://youtube.com/shorts/bAsLI5kJYl0?si=A6dioenQf_7M6_aV. Yup, my paw is all healed now.After lots of love and care, I am now ready to find my forever home! My foster family describes me as incredibly sweet and gentle.https://youtu.be/4D76gohWZuc, https://youtube.com/shorts/pMv80kZzn4k?si=65floaNuY7QZjvQJ.I love to play and am also potty trained. Because of my start in life, I can be nervous going outside onto the street and will need a family that is willing to help me overcome my fears. Close calls with cars & having been attacked likely created this fear. So once I have time to learn I am safe and slow desensitizations going out, I should gain confidence. I know you will protect me and I will learn this.I'm a playful pup, who enjoys interacting with other dogs and kitties to: https://youtu.be/XAm-qAgrdw0  (isn't this just adorable?)

A warm hello to you. I'm ELLERINA and here is a little info about me:Breed: Canaan Dog/Saluki mixAge: 1-1/2 yearsGender: femaleWeight: 23 kgHeight: 45 cmHighlights: friendly, playful, eager to learn You will find here a very well socialized pupper. Pretty amazing given my start in life.Nearly a year and a half ago, my rescuers were called by a family here in Israel, to take a mama and her puppies from their yard. They hated animals and didn’t want them around. So my rescuers took all us puppies, but couldn't catch my mama, as she ran away. Isn't that heartbreaking? They took us to their shelter, where we were given the treatment we needed.Being a friendly girl (though a bit shy/anxious to start), I will happily join your family for fun & frolic. I'm playful at the right level, not too hyper, not too dull. So, if you are like Goldilocks, looking for just right... that's me.While I can be independent, I am also faithful to my peeps.When hearing loud voices, I can get startled. I get scared by high pitched sounds of cars. So hoping you can reassure me on walks with cars around. Having been in the war zone here, it is going to take some settling learning, I am no longer in danger.I know how to walk with a leash and bonus score, am house trained too. See, just right. I am eager to please, eager to learn & given my confidence level, I should be easy to train. You'll find I am quite entertaining to watch. Especially since I can be curious about things. It will be amusing for you to watch me discover all the new things about life there in Canada.I get along fine with other dogs. With cats, it's a mixed bag, so probably a home without a cat is best. I haven't had interactions with children. I'm a cuddly and affectionate girl too. Energy Level: moderate                                       I get along with:Dogs: yesCats: NoKids: unknown Fears: Loud voices can startle me.

✅Currently located in South Korea✅️ 💟Available to fly to Vancouver & Toronto💟 Meet Gowoon💖 • Interaction with People: Gowoon is still not accustomed to human touch. She allows gentle, cautious petting and can manage soft touches but reacts defensively if touched too suddenly. • Interaction with Dogs: She gets along well with calm dogs with a similar demeanor and appreciates dogs that approach her gently. • Separation Anxiety: She lives in a group setting at the shelter, so it’s unclear if she has separation anxiety. • Potty Training: Currently, she only practices outdoor potty as she lives in the shelter. • Hygiene: Gowoon is not yet comfortable bathing or brushing due to her unfamiliarity with human contact. • Walks: She is afraid of hands reaching for her to attach a leash, which has prevented her from going on walks. • Car Sickness: Travels well in a car without any signs of motion sickness. 💌Special Notes💌 • Gowoon struggles to take treats from hands but is gradually learning to accept them. She prefers eating treats that are placed around her. • She is frightened by loud noises and sudden movements. Slow, deliberate movements around her can help her feel more secure and comfortable.

Hello everyone. My name is Kaila and here is a little info about me: Breed: Jindo/German Shepherd MixAge: 2 yearsGender: Female    Weight: 44 lbHeight:  57 cmHighlight(s): Good with other dogs, rarely barks In February 2022, I found myself in a city pound as a stray, along with my Shepherd mom and two siblings. While they were lucky enough to find their forever homes, I was left behind, feeling a little lonely. But hey, that's all in the past now because I'm ready to find my own loving family! I must admit, I can be a bit shy when I first meet new people. But if you approach me gently, I'll warm up to you quickly. I even enjoy being petted and lifted once I feel comfortable. Treats? Oh, I love them! I'll happily take them from your hands. However, if I'm feeling too nervous, I might pass on the treats for now. It's all about finding that balance, you know? Guess what? I had the pleasure of meeting a two-year-old human boy once. He whined a lot, but you know what? I was super patient with him. I understand that little ones can be full of energy and noise, and I'm more than happy to be a calm and gentle companion for them. When it comes to meeting new dogs, I have different approaches. Sometimes, I'm all about play and will actively approach them, ready for some fun. Other times, I prefer to just say a quick hello and then mind my own business. It really depends on my mood. Oh, and when I visit a dog park for the first time, I might feel a bit overwhelmed. In those moments, I'd love to find a cozy corner where I can feel safe and secure. Now, let's talk about cats. I've encountered a few stray cats during our walks, and I must admit, they make me a little nervous. I prefer to keep my distance and just sniff them indirectly. I'm still learning to be more comfortable around them, but for now, I'll stick to walking with my handler and exploring the world together. I have a moderate energy level - at a lower side. At home, I'm a pretty calm and relaxed pup. I love to chill out and take naps. In fact, I've already found my favorite spot under the desk, and that's where I like to set up my comfort zone. When my handler puts me on a leash, I'm a good girl and follow her lead. During walks, I can still be a bit tense and timid. You might notice that I tuck my tail most of the time. But don't worry, I'm learning to trust and feel more at ease. I walk well on a leash and won't pull you around. Now, car rides are a bit of a challenge for me. I tend to get carsick and vomit, but I'm getting better at it. Short drives are becoming easier for me, and I'm hopeful that with time, I'll overcome this little hurdle. Oh, and did I mention that I'm pretty independent? I can jump into a car all by myself, and I'm totally okay with being brushed. Baths? No problem! I tolerate them well. Now, let's talk about food. I have a healthy appetite, but I do get a bit uncomfortable when people get too close while I'm eating. It's just a little quirk of mine, but with some patience and understanding, I'm sure we can work through it together. So, if you're looking for a sweet and gentle companion who's still learning to navigate the world, I'm your girl! I may have had a rough start, but I'm ready to find my forever home where I can feel safe, loved, and cherished. If you think we could be a perfect match, please reach out and let's start this beautiful journey together.  I get along with:Dogs: yesCats: yesKids: yes   Fears: Unknown/none observed. Please be patient assisting me in my transition. Training: Yes, Leash and crate trainedLeash skills: Yes. Please be prepared to continue training.House trained: Yes.

Hello there! My name is Aleck, and I have an incredible story to share with you. Rescued from a dog meat farm in South Korea in 2021, I narrowly escaped a life of unimaginable hardship. Now, I'm ready to embark on a new chapter filled with love, joy, and endless tail wags. Here's a little more about me: Breed: Jindo mixAge: 4 yearsGender: male    Weight: 51 lbHeight:   cmHighlight(s): Calm, Happy, Rarely Bark Despite the challenges I've faced in the past, my heart is full of love for humans. I'm a social pup who isn't shy around strangers - in fact, I quickly warm up to new faces and love making new friends. Even at the vet, I approached the nurses with confidence, eagerly accepting treats and showing off my friendly personality. I've been staying in a foster home since last March, and let me tell you, I've settled into home life perfectly. I'm completely house-trained and have no issues with separation anxiety. When my foster mom goes to work, I patiently wait for her to come back so we can go on our walks and have fun together. Whether it's a cozy condo or a spacious house, I know I'll fit right in and make myself at home. I get along well with other dogs, especially with gentle female pups. While I may be a bit reserved around male dogs, I'm friendly and enjoy saying hi and sharing space with my furry friends. I'm not much of a wrestler, but I love exploring the world and going for walks. I get so excited about our outdoor adventures that I voluntarily hop into the car because I know it means more fun times ahead. Recently, I even got to dip my paws into the sea water for the first time - what a thrilling experience! I do have a strong prey drive, so it's important to keep me leashed and away from cats, squirrels, and bunnies during our walks to keep everyone safe. I'm looking for a loving and understanding forever home where I can continue to heal and thrive. If you're an experienced pet owner who can provide a secure environment and help me manage my prey drive, I think we could be the perfect match. Let's shower each other with affection and create lasting memories together. I can't wait to find my forever family - could it be with you? Let's find out! Energy Level: I have a moderate energy level. I'm very calm at home. I like to chill out or take a nap. It doesn't mean I don't like walks. I love walks! I'm not nervous in new areas. I'm curious and adventurous. I get along with:Dogs: YesCats: No Kids: Yes Fears: Unknown/none observed. Please be patient assisting me in my transition. I haven't shown any signs of separation anxiety and I don't have escape tendency. Leash skills: Yes.

**update** I'm currently being fostered in Seattle, WA Hello everyone. My name is Sweetie and here is a little info about me: Breed: Jindo mixAge: 5 yearsGender: Female    Weight: 36 lbHeight: 49 cmHighlight(s): Good with other dogs, not scared of strangers, no escape tendency, no separation anxiety Found lokced up in a rusty and filty wire cage in South Korea, all I was given was food waste. I was very skinny and looked lifeless when my amazing rescuing saved me.  From the very beginning, I was very friendly to humans and a very cheerful girl. You may find me a bit shy at first but I am very submissive to humans and would allow you to pet me and even lift me if you take the time and do it slowly. Once I completely open up to you, I'll be even more comfortable with pets and scratches. Car rides are not my favorite thing as I could feel very car sick and start drooling a lot.  My energy level is moderate and I enjoy outdoor activites and like to rest/calm at home after walks. At the dog parks, you will find me focused more on sniffing here and there and minding my own business rather than trying to play with new friends. However, I do gently say hi to my new dog friends at the park but I will quickly run away and continue my sniffing adventure.  Rarely will I bark at home, even when I'm left alone. I'm also crate trained and 90% hourse trained.   You will see I am friendly, cheerful & calm with no resource guarding issues toward humans or other dogs. I have only shown aggression to one dog among 30-40 dogs. During walks, I look very happy and confident. I follow my handler pretty well while enjoy sniffing here and there. Passing cars don't scare me and I'm not afraid of pedestrians, indeed I like approach people and say hi. After I finish peeing, I love kicking my back legs while looking really happy.  Energy Level: Moderate I get along with:Dogs: yesCats: unknown / I have never met a cat!Kids: yes Fears: Unknown/none observed. Please be patient assisting me in my transition. Training: yes / I am crate trainedLeash skills: yes. Please be prepared to continue training.House trained: 90% yes.
