Story
Hello!! My name is Winnie. Here is some information about me:
Breed: Schipperke Mix
Age: 1 year old
Gender: Female
Weight: 38 lbs
Height: 21” tall
Highlights: Sweet, calm, active, alert, protective, clumsy, playful
Howdy partners!!! Are you looking for a gorgeous, loveable curious, gentle and goofy girl to be part of your family? Look no further as I have all those wonderful qualities to offer plus so much more!!! I am one of the lucky pups to have been rescued from a Rural South Texas Shelter with my two sisters. Unfortunately, my sisters and I were separated so I am lacking a little confidence without them by my side to navigate this new world. I am a shy little girl at first but once I warm up and trust my humans I come out of my shell. I am looking for a family with or without dogs who will shower me with love and patience while I transition to my new surroundings. I love going on new adventures with my foster and especially love chasing other pups through the marshes in the neighbourhood!!!!
I am good with other dogs (see video). Cats & kids have not yet been in my repertoire.
A somewhat mellow home would suit me best. Not a great deal of commotion would help me settle faster. I'd still love to get out and have fun though. Sniffing around is a great adventure.
I am ready to be part of your family. Just say the word and I will be on my way from Texas!!!!
Energy Level: Moderate
I get along with:
Dogs: Yes
Cats: Unknown
Kids: Unknown
Fears/Prey Drive: Temptation to chase after squirrels and rabbits, fear of people roller skating or on scooters. Please be patient assisting me in my transition.
Training: Minimal. (Sit) Please continue with my training at home.
Leash Skills: Yes. Please be prepared to continue with my training.
House trained: Yes. Please assist training me where to go in my new home.
Health Notes:
I have been spayed/neutered, vaccinated and microchipped.
My adoption fee is $800 CAD plus applicable taxes. Includes transport to Canada.
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.
