German Shepherd Dog puppies and dogs in Aldergrove, British Columbia

Good day!  My name is Marlin (aka Martin) and I'd love to tell you a bit about me!  I'm an older guy (born in May 2007), a mix of german shepherd/canaan breeds, and I've never lived in a proper stable home environment.  I'm quite an energetic dog and my favourite place to be at the shelter is outdoors.  I can be somewhat selective with the dog friends I make, and while I can play nicely with them, I think I'd prefer to be the only resident dog in my forever home.  I need a fair amount of exercise, so will be most pleased with a very active family. As you can see, I am a very smiley, happy boy.  https://youtu.be/Ua0EzZr-qNcAfter being confiscated from a neglectful home, I went to a local shelter when I was around 1 year old. I have been at the shelter since then and it is about time I find a home!  Having never received consistent, dedicated training from humans, I need a fairly experienced handler/owner who knows about & has experience with training. Since I have never lived in a home before, having a yard would be good, so I can acclimate to living inside better, by having plenty of outdoor time, where I feel most comfortable right now. I hope you are willing to give me time to understand a house is a great place to be.I have had basic training: leash walking with a halti, heel, sit, down, bed/place, in addition to exposure to other dogs. Continued training and review of what I know would be good. I'm a smart pupper, so could learn tricks too https://youtu.be/Lr8EJ2Zkc1I. Here I am calm at the vet's office: https://youtu.be/udM_Cc-MOgk. Energy Level: high Fears: unknown/none observed. Please be patient assisting me in my transition. Training: yes, basic training commands and leash walkingLeash skills: yes. Please be prepared to continue training.House trained: No, as I live in a shelter environ. Please be prepared to help me learn! My adoption fee is $700.00 CAD plus applicable taxes. This includes my transportation to Canada, if I am able to be accompanied by a flight volunteer directly to Vancouver.

THIS IS A COURTESY POST. PLEASE CONTACT THE PERSON OR GROUP LISTED BELOW IN THE POSTING TO INQUIRE ABOUT THE DOG. Please send us a private message or an email if you have serious inquiries and not in comments. Email: woofywishes@gmail.com TORBO (TRIPOD) was rescued from the Middle East and now he is in Vancouver BC and he's looking for his forever home. It is ideal for Torbo to go to a home where he can have a doggie sibling.Torbo - Shepherd mix - 19 kg - 1.5 yr old - Male - Neutered - Good with dogs - Not cat tested, but he will be ok with proper intro - Good with people of all ages - Crate trained - House trained - Playful & loving - Barks to give warning - Not a flight risk - No aggression - Good on leash - Healthy - He was found with a severed leg when he was a puppy on the street, likely for witchcraft purposes.Torbo is the sweetest friendliest and happiest dog ever. His tail is ALWAYS wagging. He is such a people lover! Going on walks he wants everyone to pet him, and he goes up to everyone to say hi on walks, he gets offended if people don’t want to pet him. He loves attention and human kisses. Turbo is also a super well-balanced dog - he can be super playful and also be super chill and calm. He doesn’t bark much, does not have a huge prey drive, able to stay alone for a bit in a crate with a chew toy. He is perfectly potty trained, not a single accident in the house. He sleeps the whole night in his crate with no waking up. He has medium energy and his 3 legs can tire after a walk, so he isn’t exactly the ideal rough terrain hiking buddy.

Hello sweet world. I'm Ashe and here is info about me:Breed: Labrador / German Shepherd MixAge: 4 years oldGender: MaleWeight: 56 lbsHeight 24 inchesHighlights: You'll find me a curious pupper, who just likes to see what is going on. Should make training easier, as I want to know what you want from me.Once loved, then dumped, I found myself abandoned by the only family I had ever known. Abandoned for not meeting the standards of being a purebred German Shepherd they thought I was. Isn't that ridiculous?My journey led me to a busy highway here in Lebanon. Shops on the side of the highway saw me and feared for my safety and the safety of the cars getting into an accident. So my rescuers received an urgent call to come get me. They immediately came and rescued me, having to navigate the chaos of the highway to collect me.With gentle hands and soothing words, they picked me up, holding me in their arms. Such a relief that was. As they took me away to safety, my heart was filled with gratitude for the second chance I'd been given.In the days that followed, I found peace in their care. Despite the feelings of abandonment, I began to trust once more, my trust slowly restored with each passing day.I am good with other dogs. Running and playing is a blast. It may be possible I have quite mild hip displaysia or a tad of arthritis, nothing real evident. It doesn't slow me down at all, as you can see in my videos. I play with other dogs well: https://youtube.com/shorts/b3-jv3AmsUU?si=2x5t-LEfzlf2NX14. I'm a friendly guy. Although I can be playful, I can also be calm. So chilling at home is fine by me too. Never had experience with kitty-kind, so unsure of living with one. Likewise, kids have not yet been in my repertoire, though my calmness likely would lend me to doing fine with them. Energy Level: moderate.I get along with:Dogs: YesCats: UnknownKids: Unknown Fears: being bullied by alpha male dogs. Please be patient assisting me in my transition.Training: Shelter life schedule - park time - meal time.Leash skills: some. Please be prepared to continue training.House trained: unknown, though likely. Please help me learn where to go in my new home. Health notes:Possible very mild hip displaysia or arthritisI have been spayed/neutered, vaccinated and microchipped.My adoption fee is $750.00 CAD plus applicable taxes. This includes my transportation to Canada, if I am able to be accompanied by a flight volunteer directly to Vancouver.

How do you do? My name is NILA and here is a little info about me:Breed: German Shepard mixAge: 2 years 3 monthsGender: femaleWeight: 32 kgHeight: 65 cmHighlight(s): curious, lovable, intelligent, active My rescuer describes me as "very lovable, intelligent and very trainable." I'm a big bundle of love waiting for your open arms.My rescuer found me in a sack when I was a puppy. Sadly this happens a lot in my Middle East country. Since I loved to eat from the very beginning, I quickly became friends.While generally good with male dogs and small breeds https://youtu.be/djuikRvSm-w , I am not friendly with some female dogs my own size. For this reason, it is better to be adopted in a family that does not have another dog or does not have another female dog, because can be very jealous and want pets all to myself.I have a good relationship with children. It is better if the children are older (8 yrs+), because I am very playful and run here and there, which could result in inadvertently bumping into a smaller child and knocking them down. Await videos with kid. Given my initial reaction to a cat, I could probably learn to live with one.  https://youtu.be/dCJHzu7XR_E.I love playing with a ball. Toys that can handle a tough chewer would be best.My genetic predisposition is to keep watch and bark at strangers. Not aggression, just alerting. Being very loyal to my owner, if someone approaches and I feel the stranger is dangerous, I will bark at them. With time and proper training, I will learn to differentiate what is normal in my new environment and adhere to commands. If I don't see my owner for a while, I will run towards them, wag my tail and start whining and growling (just my way of talking.) It's really rather cute.I need a harness for walks, as I hate neck collars and don't like anyone to hold my neck at all.I really enjoy car rides, but don't like being tied in. You may need to hug me to get me in the car at first. Of course, being a foodie, you may be able to entice me pretty easy. I'd do best in a home with a yard, but you should ensure the fence or hedge heights & spacings are such I won't jump over or slide through, as I am also quite the curious girl.

My name is TOMMIE and here is a little info about me:Breed: German shepherd mixAge: 4 yearsGender: maleWeight: 74 lbHeight: 28 inchesHighlight(s): Calm, emotional, loving, quick learner I am a gentle and affectionate dog. I have a deep love for humans! One special thing about me is that I express my love by making a unique chicken-like sound.My mom was a stray dog. She gave birth to me and my furry siblings in a neighborhood outside of a city in the Middle East. A kind lady who lived in the neighborhood used to feed my mom, me and my siblings, so we wouldn’t die from starvation. A few of my siblings were killed by municipal dog slaughter personnel or were poisoned by mean people who live in the neighborhood. One day a municipal employee found me and threw me in his car to take me to the slaughterhouse to kill me. The kind lady saw his and begged him to let me go. To keep me safe and alive she took me to an unfinished building and asked the security guard there to let me live there for a while. After the building was finished and the residents started to move in, she had to find me a new place. Now I’m staying at a boarding shelter waiting for my forever family to find me. Please consider adopting me and I promise I’ll bring nothing but joy, love and happiness to your life. I'm a calm and interactive boy, who loves being around people and other dogs. My favorite pastimes are chilling and cuddling with my human. Going for walks is another great love of mine. Water is fun too.  https://youtube.com/shorts/1jAAwmf1oWg. And car riding is a specialty of mine:  https://youtu.be/97LzlMWaPTI Big grin, hint-hint.I am leash-trained, and not a barker!

Callie is available and ready to find her match! This stunning pup was left on the streets of Chapala, Mexico. She had parked herself outside the gates of a home, and every time the gates opened, she would cheerfully invite herself in!  Constructions workers in the area were feeding her scraps from their lunches, and others would leave kibble and water.  She finally charmed her way into the home, where the kind rescuer decided to foster her until a home could be found. So this is what we know about Callie, straight from her rescuer: Callie is extremely high energy during the day, sleeps through the night. She is housetrained and iskennel trained. She can be left kenneled up to 6 hours with no accidents and no sign of anxiety issues. She has had a one month "board and train program" for basic obedience and greater social skills with humans and other dogs.  At her foster home she lives with 7 other rescue dogs of various sizes and breeds. She plays well with a disabled Malinois and a smaller Dachshund mix but play can get quite rowdy. She gets the most exercise from ball playing. She is “Chuck It” ball obsessed and fetches well. Won’t touch a tennis ball however. She could be trained for scent work based on how she searches for the ball. She may also be a candidate for flyball. I have done some work with her on agility and she is capable but would prefer any game that involves a ball. We don't recommend placing her with cats, rabbits or any extremely small dogs as she has significant prey drive. She plays quite rough so would do well with another dog who also enjoys tumbling.  Callie has been with children but not lived with children. Based on her exuberance, she would do best with older children. Callie is a happy dog, travels well in the car, good on leash but needs to be managed for introductions to new dogs. She is responsive to verbal corrections on behavior when off leash with new dogs. She will be owner protective and will do best with someone who is experienced with a German Shepherd, Doberman or similar dog and would be dedicated to continued training. She is smart, but can be stubborn. Fortunately she is highly food motivated. With the right person, Callie is going to make an incredibly devoted dog.  If she sounds like a fit for you and you have experience with this or similar breed mix, then please apply today! VETTING: Fully vaccinated Neutered/Spayed Dewormed SNAP 4Dx negative (Heartworm, Lyme disease, Ehrlichia, and Anaplasma) Flea/tick/heartworm prevention No known medical issues or injuries PLEASE NOTE: Callie is currently in Mexico. There will be a $235 fee for transportation to BC. This will be discussed upon approval. ##2216338##

Hiya friends! My name is Raven and I am a LOCAL GAL(in Armstrong, BC)! Here is some info about me: PHYSICAL INFO: Breed: German Shepherd (unknown litter/origin information) Age: approx. 2.5 years Gender: Female Weight: ~45 lbs **however I should be ~55 lbs - see health info below!** Current Location: Armstrong (currently being fostered by my friends at The Canine Hub) RESCUE STORY – My rescuer, Flo, found me running around on the highway in Armstrong. Flo pulled over and was fully equipped with leash and treats, thinking she'd have to try to coax me towards her and catch me... but much to her suprise, I ran right up to her! I was immediately friendly and trusting, so relieved to have found a caring human. I was wearing a collar but had no tags on. I was SUPERRR skinny and clearly malnourished. Flo asked around all the nearby homes but nobody claimed me as their own, so she took me home with her :) Over the next few days, my pals at The Canine Hub searched for my owners; posting in lost dog groups on social media. My previous owners were located a few days later, however they were unable to care for me, so The Canine Hub offered to take me in as a foster dog and to help find me a more suitable home. They have taken SUCH good care of me and have dedicated endless time and resources into finding the causes of my malnourishment (see HEALTH NOTES below). I am on my way to a healthy weight now and am ready to find my love-filled forever home!  TEMPERAMENT - I am a SUPER sweet, loving, loyal girl. I am extremely affectionate and love people! (video) We have yet to find a human I did not love, to be honest! I am gentle and affectionate around children and tend to be protective over the child's space (particularly if other dogs come near). I love my people of all ages and sizes! I enjoy the company of male dogs and can be quite neutral around them, however I should not go to a home with another female dog as I have shown some same-sex aggression (very common amongst female German Shepherds). When on pack walks with my fosters, I wear a muzzle around female dogs just as a safety precaution. If I were on a structured leash walk, I could be muzzle-free (although on-leash greetings with any dog should always be avoided as a general rule of thumb). I have struggled with resource guarding since I was rescued, but that has slowly been getting better as my health has improved. I can still be a bit snappy around food, purely due to my enthusiasm to be fed. I LOVE hiking and off leash exploring followed by some snuggles on the couch with my favourite human. I am the perfect combination of adventure buddy and cuddle partner! I am cuddly and calm when exercised appropriately and would love to do everything with you all day long for all the days to come! Seriously, I'm SUCH a people-pleasing dog! I have received tip top care at The Canine Hub where I get daily hiking adventures with other doggos, plenty of controlled socialization, and an opportunity to work on my general obedience skills. I am a very human-social girl though, so I really crave a home where I can have couch snuggles and a human's attention all to myself. MY IDEAL HOME: Single-dog household or a home with a neutral, male dog.  Adopters with German Shepherd breed experience. Daily hikes followed by couch snuggles with my human. Adopters who are financially stable and willing to continue my raw food diet and enzyme supplements (see HEALTH NOTES below). ENERGY LEVEL - Moderate - I require adequate daily exercise (hiking and responsible off-leash exploring are my fave!), but after that I am super happy to cuddle and snooze on your couch!  GETS ALONG WITH: Kids – Yes! [Video] I have been around children and done very well, although I do show some protective tendencies around them - what can I say, I'm loyal to the core. I am VERY gentle and affectionate around children. When around a child, I do not enjoy other dogs especially entering the child's space.  As with ALL dogs, I should be supervised around children and my personal space should always be advocated for! Dogs – Male dogs, yes! I should be muzzled if off-leash around female dogs, as I have shown some same-sex aggression towards female dogs while staying in my foster home. With a confident handler, I can be quite neutral around other dogs. Cats – Dog-Savvy Cats, yes! [Video coming soon] I am happy to coexist with cats; there are 3 dog-savvy cats in my foster home who I see daily with no problems. PREY DRIVE - Low. Despite being a Shepherd, I have shown low prey drive for my breed; I do not chase cats or other smaller animals and show little interest in a lure toy. TRAINING:  I am house trained and crate trained! I have good recall and have been trained on a Mini Educator e-collar with The Canine Hub; making me extra reliable off leash. (video) My on-leash skills could still use some honing, although not too shabby. I know basic commands ("sit", "down") and am marker trained ("Yes", "No", "Break").  Please Note: WCP highly encourages adopters to do some research and training on their own before taking their dog home.  HEALTH NOTES: When I was rescued, I was extremely malnourished, with all ribs, spine and hip bones showing clearly. My rescuers assumed it was because I hadn't had a meal in a long time, however once they started feeding me high calorie meals, I still wasn't putting on weight. I also had regular diarrhea and didn't seem to be absorbing any nutrients from my food. After extensive tests at the vet, I was diagnosed with Exocrine Pancreatic Insufficiency (EPI); meaning that my body naturally lacks the digestive enzymes required for me to process food. As a result, these enzymes have to be manually added into each of my meals. This is a lifelong condition. As long as I receive my enzymes with each meal, I will be able to live a normal, long life with minimal symptoms from this condition. I currently take 1 tsp of Pancreatin from Enzyme Diane with each meal. The enzymes cost approx. $100/month. I am fed twice daily and am on a fully raw diet (approx. 2 lbs/day). Eating raw allows me to get the most nutrition out of my food and it is STRONGLY recommended that I remain on a raw-only diet for life. I am on rotating proteins of salmon/pork/duck/lamb/turkey. I do not have any known allergies but due to the EPI, it is recommended I not have a lot of additional treats outside of my meals as I cannot digest appropriately without the digestive enzymes. If there is a treat-heavy day, just mix in some enzymes so I can get the best of your tasty offerings! I am spayed and up to date on all vaccinations. I will continue to receive regular health checks from a vet while in the care of The Canine Hub.  ADOPTION FEE: My adoption fee is $840.00 CAD ($750 + 5% GST and 7% PST). Any travel costs associated with meeting me in Armstrong are to be paid for by the applicant/adopter. --------------------------------------------- DISCLAIMER: Please visit wcpdogrescue.com to read about West Coast Paws Dog Rescue and it's adoption process.

✅Currently located in South Korea✅️ 💟Available to fly to Vancouver & Toronto💟 Meet Kuku🧡 Kuku is one of Danpoong’s five puppies. On a bitter winter day, Danpoong was brought to Koren city shelter, where she gave birth to five puppies and suffered from monge. After Adogs rescued them, the other puppies found their forever homes but Kuku and his mom Danpoong are still waiting for their family. * Interaction with people : Loves people so he greets familiar ones with kisses. Gets scared or barks at strangers who approach swiftly, though. Hides to the room after barking with fear at new people who visit home. Warms up shortly if they take time and approach him slowly. * Interaction with dog: Greets nicely other dogs and plays well with them with quick adaptation.

May pull on the lead when dogs, birds, cats or other animals pass by swiftly. May get nervous and bark when a person suddenly comes running in his direction and is going through training. * Car Sickness: May vomit when he rides the car over 30 minutes. It would be better not to feed him before car rides. * Has mastered commands like 'sit, shake, down, nose, chin’ and is a quick learner. * Has a good appetite, so he may growl when you try to touch his snack. * May get nervous and try to bite defensively when a stranger comes to touch him suddenly. * Is scared and sometimes barks when he hears sudden or unfamiliar noises, but stops very soon. * Gets scared easily, but also is a very curious dog. Shows a lot of affection when you become close to him!

Name: Annie OakleyBreed: German Shepherd mixAge: 4 yrsGender: feWgt/Hgt: 55 lbs / 22 inches Highlights: playful, tripaw, joyful, very affectionate, independent, low exercise needs - no walking needed Energy level: low Relations: great with dogs once comfortable with them, good with kids, not good with cats  Hi everyone, my name is Annie Oakley. I am a beautiful and very happy girl, but that hasn't always been true for me. I used to live in the Middle East where at the very tender age of eight months I became pregnant. I was much too young to become a mother and all my puppies died. In addition, my rear leg had been badly damaged, probably from being hit by a car. In the country I came from, dogs are considered vermin and people often deliberately hit us with their cars in attempts to kill us. My wounds became badly infected and I was in terrible pain by the time I was finally rescued. By the time I was taken to a veterinarian, my leg needed to be amputated. Despite this I am very mobile and can easily climb stairs. I can't go on long hikes but normal length walks are perfect for me.  I am a very loving and affectionate girl who has a real love of life. I enjoy the company of other dogs, once I trust them. I currently live happily with several dogs of all sizes. It can take a few visits for me to feel safe with other dogs for me to let my guard down with other dogs. Given this, it could potentially be difficult for a prospective adopter to take the necessary time I require to become familiar with their dog-- so a home without another dog is best for me. I am happy being the only dog in the home as my true love is people. I have the cutest habit of splaying my front legs out wide when I want you to play with me. And if you pet me and stop and I want some more, I will wrap my front legs around yours to "trap" you and keep you with me. Adorable, right?! I am a really easy dog to care for, and to love. I very much enjoy being outside, so a fenced yard is important to me. In fact, I don't even need or want to go on walks. Because of my missing rear leg, I often find walking too strenuous and much prefer hanging out with my person inside the home or outside in the yard. A covered deck for me to hang out on, watching birds and squirrels, is essential for me. While I am a joyful soul, I am not at all hyper or high energy. At home I am very calm and relaxed. Layin on my bed chewing on a marrow bone or a chew stick is one of my favourite pasttimes! There is no way you could be unhappy with me around.  I am spayed, vaccinated and microchipped. My adoption fee is $600 plus applicable taxes* 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. Vaccinations: Dogs from the Middle East are vaccinated for rabies, parvo, distemper, leptospirosis, adenovirus type 1 and para-influenza. Bordatella is not given, as that has not been a problem in the Middle East. ##951485##

My name is Ms. Marley and I am an affectionate, sweet, playful, smart, and quiet 1.5 year old gal. I am part Belgian Malinois and part Labrador retriever. I weigh about 62 lbs and I measure about 20 inches at my shoulder. There is a good chance that I will greatly benefit from a 'job' within my family home. After all, my breed background is to be a working dog. I am not likely to be a dog who sits in front of the fire and just relaxes most of the day.  When I was about four or five months old, I got a viral enteritis causing diarrhea. My then “owner” didn’t want to spend the money to get me treated so I was dropped off at the terrible shelter in Wuhan, China. The terrible shelter wouldn’t take me because they didn’t want to spend the money treating me either. A really nice lady volunteer took me to her vet to get me treated and brought me to her shelter. I have been at her shelter for about a year. I am a good girl who loves to play, being still a young pup. I get along very well with the other dogs and I also love my rescuer and her family. I so long to have a family I can call my own and to flourish with them. I'm told that I am very trainable. So far, I have some leash-walking skills and I have a nice relationship with my rescuer's young daughter. I don't know any cats so I'm not sure how I would be around them. I have been spayed, microchipped, and immunized. My adoption fee is $750.00 CAD plus applicable taxes.  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.
