Story
Hello Friends! My name is MADY (Ady) and here is a little info about me:Breed: Chihuahua mixAge: 2 yearsGender: FemaleWeight: 15 lbsHeight: 9 inchesCountry of origin: MexicoHighlights: Submissive, nervous, affectionate, eager to please
Looking for a lap dog? I love affection once I feel safe. The M stands for mmm, mmmm, good, but I just go by Ady for short.My life began with my mama and siblings in the forest. Being very small, it was very difficult for us to survive out there. In the evenings we would go to the main road to look for food. A lady noticed us and started to bring us food. Since we were very scared, we didn’t allow this lady to touch us, but she kept returning to feed us for several weeks.
One day while my brother was waiting for our mom to come back, he fell asleep under a parked car. Unfortunately the driver didn’t notice that my little brother was there when they started their car, and well.... my brother didn't survive. The bustling world proved scary for us!
As a contsant in our lives, the kind lady with food kept returing to feed us and after sometime, we started to trust her, which was when she was able to bring us to live in the shelter.I can be a little nervous, since I am very small. Loud noises can still make jittery.I do so love being petted though. Once I build a bit of trust, which doesn't take long if you are not loud or fast moving with me. Then it's all peachy snuggle time. I am submissive, so won't bother another dog. I am fine with other dog. Cats, no clue. They might scare me more than the other way around. I have not really had any leash experience yet. Awaiting your loving arms.

Fears: nervous if someone approachs too fast. Please be patient assisting me in my transition.Training: just some house workLeash skills: no. Please be prepared to train me.House trained: Yes. Please help me learn where to go in my new home.
Health notes:I have been spayed/neutered, vaccinated, but am not yet microchipped. LALDR will provide for this cost at our vet.My adoption fee is $850.00 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.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. 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.
