Flat-Coated Retriever puppies and dogs in Aldergrove, British Columbia

Hi there. My name is DASH (Boris) and here is a little info about me:Breed: Flat Coated Retriever mixAge: 2 years oldGender: MaleWeight: 28 kgHeight: 47 cmHighlights: gentle, outgoing, friendly, social, watchful Despite my hardships growing up, I possess a gentle spirit and a pair of soulful eyes that speak of resilience.I had a rough start. Born on the streets of Turkey, I had to learn to survive. My days were filled with scavenging for food, avoiding larger dogs, and seeking shelter in hidden corners. I used to live on a university campus and was a community dog. However, it did not take long before university management started to collect all dogs and put them in a municipal shelter, which is simply a death sentence for a dog here. My community of volunteers didn’t let this happen and placed me into a boarding facility.Known for my friendly and outgoing nature, I form strong bonds with my peeps. I am often eager to please. With my glossy coat and playful demeanour, I will become a beloved member of your family, capturing the hearts of everyone in your home.This social butterfly thrives on human interaction and I am always eager to make new friends.My warm, expressive eyes reflect my affectionate nature, and my tail wags enthusiastically at the sight of anyone willing to give me attention. I am highly food-motivated. This can be an advantage in training. I can be influenced by other dogs’ temperaments, so I would be a good companion to a calm dog with a proper introduction. https://youtu.be/MEMyoAgcpt0.You will find me playful and entertaining. I love to play, run, and engage in various activities. Regular exercise is essential to keep me happy. I do know how to walk on leash: https://youtu.be/nFyYiib-eC4. Car rides are ever so fun:  https://youtu.be/DGT3vJ-thJENo idea how I am around kids and cats, I've never interacted with them. If you plan to adopt a dog for the first time or you are not an experienced dog owner, you should consider working with a trainer, as this bud has stayed in a boarding house for a long time and forgotten the city life manners. But here I am with a buddy:  http://https:\\youtu.be/DZ--QRmwFa0.Waiting for you to click that adopt button that gets me winging your way for loves and licks.

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, 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.

Hi there. My name is PARIS and here is a little info about me:Breed: Lab mixAge: 4.5 years oldGender: FemaleWeight: 35 kgsHeight: 62 cmHighlights: affectionate, playful, like toys An affectionate, energetic girl looking for a good time. Quite playful. That's my singles ad. Heehee.My rescuer found me in a high school garden in Turkey with my 7 little babies. I actually was born into the same school garden, but had a car accident one day. The teachers who gave me food and water had me treated, but since I wasn’t spayed, I had already gotten pregnant.When my puppies started to grow, guardians of the students complained about me with false accusations and it caused my path to cross with my real rescuers. They found me a fenced garden where I can be safe.They are bringing food and water everyday, but I’m bored here because I love my human companion. The happiest times for me are when my rescuers bring me raw chicken, egg and dog biscuits. You could say I am spoiled, but for my lack of being able to interact with my beloved humans as I so desire. I love being petted and to hang out with people: https://youtu.be/futYesYv48Y. That's what us dogs were designed for, right?Though I will guard my space from another dog, once properly introduced, I am fine. I can be a bit picky who my good doggie friends will be, so proper intro is vital (large males especially.) I'm not an alpha and will get along afterward.  https://youtu.be/7mYppnNWYtM.I really like chewing on play toys and I can be left alone for hours without issue. I'm such a good girl. I do get excited easily though, so a bit of training will help that.I'd enjoy a fairly active home. Maybe long hikes in the forest or runs on the beach. I hear those are splendid. Absolutely we need our cuddle time too, so I can be, oh so close to you. Energy Level: High Fears: None observed. Please be patient during my transition. No prey drive observed. I get along with:Dogs: yes, bit choosy, video soonCats: UnknownKids: Unknown Training: some leashworkLeash skills: I’m comfortable on the leash, but please be prepared to continue training.House trained: Not yet. Please be prepared to help me learn! No crate training. Health notes: Xrays have revealed I was shot with some buckshot. It is causing no harm, so the vet said best to leave it alone.I have been spayed/neutered, vaccinated and microchipped. 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.

G'day. My name is DORIE (Dorla) and here is a little info about me:Breed: Golden Retriever/Lab mixAge: 5 yearsGender: femaleWeight: 32 kgHeight: 55 cm Dorie has been very loved by a couple of Canadian foster parents, but she has nonetheless been rehomed. In one case it was because of the health issues of the adopter, in the other it was because the caregivers were not in a position to help her to become better acquainted with other neighborhood dogs. When she doesn't know another dog, she greatly wants to reach out to play and connect so a calm set of limits by her adopter will help her to also remain calm. Her recent adopters have said the following about Dorie..."She is so loving and kind and affectionate with us and with all humans it's impossible not to fall in love with her." Her other caregivers said that if you love being greeted at the door every time you come home with a smiling, tail-wagging dog with the biggest paws on the block, then please meet Dorie. This sweet, playful Golden Retriever/Lab cross loves spending time lounging around the house and having a spot to sleep in every room. She loves playing with tennis balls and durable stuffies. Dorie is an independent girl who can keep herself entertained with toys and puzzles, but would also benefit from having a playful friend around the neighbourhood to help her socialize more. She has played with several other dogs near one of her Canadian homes and she was a marvelous pack member, getting along with everyone. She is smart, and understands some basic commands (sit, lay down, shake a paw.) We have been working on recall and she does well on leash until she sees another dog on leash, at which time she may pull on the leash, trying to get free to play with that dog. Calm but firm limits set by her human usually result in her settling. One thing that helps is a couple of good walks daily as she has a fairly high energy level and greatly enjoys exploring the world, particularly nature. Having a strong prey drive, Dorie will chase after small animals (including cats). So a household devoid of a cat or other small animals (including teacup-sized dogs) is best. Dorie has been friendly meeting children, but has not been with them for any extended amount of time. She does well with women and recently with men also and has made some dog friends around the neighbourhood. There are some days where she will bark at other dogs, as well some men, but she is able to be redirected with consistent limits.  Dorie would do better in a home with a yard where she could relax. Her preference is for shorter walks, and her recall is getting better. She hasn’t wanted to try swimming yet, but has been out on a paddle board several times. Dorie loves food, treats, and jumping into the water to play. She sleeps well through the night, and sometimes even snores after a busy day! Once Dorie gets the zoomies, prepare for the cutest dog show ever. She would do well in a home that would allow her outdoor time, but also time to relax indoors. HISTORY: Hiya guys! One time, in my home country during the middle of the night, the city officials were killing the neighborhood dogs. I did some major sneaky work and ran away from the city officials into my rescuer’s father’s yard. Lucky for me, he had left the door open to take out the trash. I ran into his yard and hid in a box until I was found by my rescuer's dad. I was so lucky to end up in his yard. The stars have aligned for me to have the opportunity to go to Canada. It was fate! I am very friendly and love to play with humans, as well as other dogs. I even have a doggy best friend! His name is Mack (also posted.) I have been told that I’m super intelligent and learn commands very quickly. I am really hoping that I will end up in Canada soon and my new life will start with you! Please consider me to be a new addition to your family! I promise to fit right in! https://youtu.be/qV4pEc476Ew. Energy level: moderate I get along with:Dogs: yesCats: noKids: unknown Prey drive: High Fears: I am a bit afraid of men. However, if they sit next to me and give me treats I will learn to trust them. Training: someLeash training: Yes. Please be prepared to continue training.House trained: Yes, but please be prepared to help me learn where to go in my new home. Health notes:I am spayed/neutered, vaccinated and microchipped.
