House trained: Yes, at her foster home she is fully house trained and knows exactly where to do her business. She is a fast learner and really enjoys time spent training & learning.

Rescue History: Peach seems to have come from a family home as she has many characteristics of a well-rounded family pet. She was found wandering in low income area of Guadalajara, were many dogs are sadly abandoned by their owners.

Would you be my Angel? DODIE You will find me an incredibly sweet-natured dog. I am a Chihuahua/Spitz mix, about 7 yrs old. I stand 16 inches at the shoulder and weigh 30 lbs.  It is unknown what originally happened to me, but due to a broken back my back legs are paralyzed. I have an awesome wheelchair that I LOVE to zip around in (especially outside!) and I'm a great walking companion. Currently, I take two 30 min walks a day which seems ideal for me. When I'm out on walks people seem to be amazed by me; my legs may be damaged but my spirit isn't! Many want to pet me (which is awesome) and they tell my foster mom what an angel she is for taking care of me. My foster mom thinks I'm a special girl and worthy of lots of love, for which I'm forever grateful. I would just love an angel to give me a home of my own forever. I walk at a steady pace. I even get a little zoomie energy and like to have a bit of a run, especially if one of those pesky squirrels are about! Otherwise, I like to take time to sniff the flowers, look up at the birds flying overhead and check out if there are any humans willing to pet me. If I get a little distracted, a little bit of encouragement is all I need to continue. I do like to nap a lot during the day or watch out of the window to see who is out and about. My green frog toy is my favourite thing, and will cuddle up with him to go to sleep at night in my 'play pen'. I LOVE snuggling on the sofa and will ask you to scratch my ears as I can't quite do it myself. I love playing with other dogs at the dog park and in the neighbourhood but I prefer to be with just my human when I'm at home. I tend to ignore cats as long as they don`t bother me. Kids are especially fun if they are old enough to know how to treat me well and give me lots of pets. I am extremely adaptable and very trusting right off the bat, which is rare in a dog that has been through so much! My past is still a mystery, but spending some time in Canada has already opened up my world.  I am so happy to be healthy and am trying to shed a little weight. I've heard my face is adorable and I can make humans laugh with my little pig-like snorts when I stretch. Yup, I'm really quite the character! Ok, I do sometimes snore... but it is the cutest thing ever. With my health in-check, I'm now learning about toys and how much fun they are: https://youtu.be/-KBzykd_RF0. My two main ways of moving myself around, (and I must say I'm pretty darn good at it!) are either dragging on my side/hip or pulling myself forwards in a sort of 'hopping' motion with my legs behind me. I can get some serious speed this way! I like having some rugs to walk on as it can be hard to get a grip on slippy floors. Also, how many dogs do you know that come with their own wheels?! I do...and wow, can I cover ground when I'm rolling down the sidewalk or grass! It would be nice (but not essential) if I had a yard, or at least some safe space/grass, for me to maneuver outside out of my wheelchair. I am able to toilet independently when in motion, I'd love to have access to a safe space to roam. My foster mom currently toilets me frequently during the day to avoid accidents; I am getting much better at letting her know when I need to go. We have a pretty good routine and with your support my infrequent accidents can be managed/avoided. My current foster mom will fill you in on how marvelous I am and how easy it is to guide me through my daily routines. If you want a spunky small gal with a zest for life and an infectious optimism, I'm the one for you! I would LOVE to meet you!! I have been spayed and am currently vaccinated & micro-chipped.My adoption fee is by donation.

Hello everyone!  Are you looking for a beautiful wee girl?  I am Momo a, 8 year old female Chi cross.  I weigh 13 pounds and stand 11 inches tall. I was a lifelong stray in S Korea before being adopted in Canada 3 years ago. Unfortunately, my adopter is having to move from a house to somewhere that may not allow pets. She is heartbroken but she knows that there is a kind and caring prospective adopter out there who will be an amazing adopter for me. Perhap's that's you?!  So here's an update on the marvelous me....my trusted humans always receive a warm welcome from me, bum wags included. I am not a gal who has ever been one to play with toys but I do like to hangout with the cat in my current home. My human says that she thinks we both look on the other as our litter mate! I am also well-mannered with the groomer and the vet. One thing about me is that I remain quite a nervous dog when out in the neighbourhood so it's important that I'm on a leash right beside my human. I also may need some leash-walking skills as my current humans have developed some health issues which prevents them from taking me for walks. I would love to have a calm, confident human who could take me walking in a quiet neighbourhood and then bring me home for a nap on a heating pad. Yes, you read this right. I'm often a chilly pup so I greatly enjoy warm naps on a heating pad. While I'm not known to be a huge cuddler, I have many other ways to show my humans how much I love them....and I would SO love to show you how much I am able to love! HISTORY: Being a stray for so long, initially I was quite scared of strangers, (people are not always kind to strays), but while I spent so long with the wonderful people at WDK (I was heartworm positive, which was cleared Aug 18th, 2021) they gave me extensive socialization training.  Slowly I have opened my heart to people.  Initially shy at first, I am no longer wary with people.  I am quite smart and have so much love to give. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=buheyh_woAI&list=PLIsLTtIpe3JyEvqKOvAHMqE5inHj66tYl&index=1 If people approach me slowly and carefully, (especially if they have treats!) I allow them to pet me.  Since younger children move quickly and are louder, they may startle me, so no kids under 12 please.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rnBJ-H-SySo&list=PLIsLTtIpe3JyEvqKOvAHMqE5inHj66tYl&index=2.   If big dogs approach me, I may warn the other dog off, but when I know them, that is different and I don't mind being around them at all.  Here is me meeting a big dog.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-p7my2y-XSE&list=PLIsLTtIpe3JyEvqKOvAHMqE5inHj66tYl&index=3  With little dogs I am much more welcoming, even if they are cranky little ones.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XucGtVuIOJU&list=PLIsLTtIpe3JyEvqKOvAHMqE5inHj66tYl&index=4.  If you have a cat, that would be fine, I show no interest in them (but see above update on this).  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FWDuBilVNLI&list=PLIsLTtIpe3JyEvqKOvAHMqE5inHj66tYl&index=5 During walks, I follow my handler's lead quite well.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P9JxenBLVts&list=PLIsLTtIpe3JyEvqKOvAHMqE5inHj66tYl&index=7, though when scared I can resist moving sometimes.  After building a strong bond, I can be recalled well off leash, but be wary because I was a stray for so long, I need to be kept on a leash until we have that bond.   My handler says I have a moderate amount of energy, and love spending time with affectionate people.  She says I used to have some fear aggression, but after so much training I no longer show any aggression.  I am very food motivated, which speaks well towards my trainability.  I have not shown any resource guarding issues https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qp9xrBrtykY&list=PLIsLTtIpe3JyEvqKOvAHMqE5inHj66tYl&index=6, no separation anxiety and rarely bark.   So what do you say?  Are you the home that will let me show how much love I have to give?  Apply for me today!   I am spayed, vaccinated and microchipped. My adoption fee of $650 + tax, includes my airfare to Vancouver or Seattle.

A very good day to you. My name is PEONY and here is a little info about me:Breed: Italian Greyhound/Terrier/Saluki mixAge: 2.5 yearsGender: femaleWeight: 18 kgHeight: 50 cmHighlight(s): friendly, energetic, good with cats and kids A friendly girl who is happy to meet new people, I am hoping you are looking for a social little sweetheart.  I love all humans.I was born on the streets of Muscat in Oman. I lived in a dangerous and busy area. Apparently a car ran over my siblings, so a local rescuer stepped in to take care of me, my sister and my mum. My mum has now been adopted in Canada and is living in Montreal. My turn now.I have been living in a foster home in Nanaimo for months and it's time to find my forever home. I get along with all the many dogs where I used to live. I am a bit of an athletic tomboy and get along really well with male dogs.  I am not automatically friends with all other dogs though and need to be introduced especially while on leash. So, if you have another dog, I am perfectly happy with that. But if not, you and I can become the best of buddies. I am cat friendly as well. Though I haven't any experience with kids, I am such a happy-go-lucky girl, I would do fine with dog savvy, respectful kids https://youtu.be/5XdlhTMLmWI. My foster mom says:  PEONY is the toughest little guard dog in the cutest package. Don't let her initial shyness fool you, she has SO much love in that body.  She loves to be near her people, and while she isn't extremely cuddly, she will reach up for hugs and adores a spot on the couch or on the bed next to you to curl up and stay close.  Loves her long walks and is mostly great on the leash, her leash manners are improving all the time but sometimes that bunny is just too tempting not to try and chase for a moment. A fenced yard/area would be a huge plus to get out her greyhound zoomies out, but she does perfectly well with consistent walks and toys to play with each day. Classic moderate greyhound energy levels, just let her get some good bursts of energy out and otherwise she's a big couch potato that wants to sleep in until 9am every day. She is loyal and loves her people so much. She wants nothing more to spend all her time with you, even if that means curling up in a dog bed beside you in your home office.  She's a big goofball that will make you laugh every day with her antics. Super car ride friendly! Take her with you everywhere! She's the best little co-pilot. She is housebroken but it's still "fresh" and consistency will be important. A little snack when she comes in from her business each time will teach her quickly to keep doing what she's doing.  She is very treat motivated and thrives on consistency.She needs help to keep building her confidence with other dogs. She is timid with other dogs but makes best friends and loves a good wrestle and chase. When she picks her friends, keep those playdates going! Be mindful of introductions, as her confidence still needs time to build up and she is not an automatic friend with every dog she meets, she plays best with fixed male dogs.  I would not recommend an uncontrolled dog park setting to keep her set up for success. She does great on pack walks with other dogs though (on leash). Peony will make herself scary to make a dog go away if she feels she needs to. Again this has never happened on leash/out and about. Only ever in an uncontrolled dog park setting with too many dogs and unpredictability when she gets very scared.  Energy Level: Moderate/high I get along with:Dogs: yesCats: yesKids: yes Fears: unknown/none observed. Please be patient assisting me in my transition. Training: a littleLeash skills: Good, except can lunge towards quick moving wildlife. Please be prepared to continue training.House trained: Yes mostly, but please continue my training here. Health notes:I 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.

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. ##1558595##
