Hi, I’m Shima!I’m a sweet girl with a heart of gold, and I’m ready to find my forever family! My journey hasn’t been the easiest—I was rescued, along with my two puppies, from a tough situation. Thankfully, we made it to a safe place, and now that my pups are all grown up, it’s my turn to find a loving home of my own!
I absolutely love people and making new friends, both human and furry. Playtime is my favorite, especially when I get to run around with my doggy pals. I haven’t met any cats yet, so I’m not sure how I’d do with them. But one thing’s for sure—I’m eager to please, super affectionate, and always ready for a cuddle!
I know how to walk on a leash, I’m potty-trained, and I have great manners. No resource guarding, no aggression—just lots of love to give! Even though the shelter is a huge step up from where I came from, I dream of having a home where I can curl up in my very own comfy bed, play with my own toys, and go on daily walks and adventures and make memories with my new family.
If you’re looking for a loyal, loving companion who will fill your life with joy, I just might be your perfect match! Will you be the one to give me the forever home I’ve been waiting for?

Disclaimer: It is important for all applicants to visit our website, http://www.lovedatlastdogrescue.ca/adopting/ and read about Loved at Last Dog Rescue.
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.
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.
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.
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.
