Australian Shepherd puppies and dogs in British Columbia

Meet Peach! This sweet girl came to us as a stray, so we don't know a ton about her history. She's a young, energetic Australian Shepherd and Husky mix with a heart full of love and enthusiasm. Peach is highly food motivated, which makes her a fast learner when training, though she is still working on improving her manners, particularly with her tendency to jump up in excitement. This playful pup thrives in active environments and would do best in a home where she can get plenty of exercise and mental stimulation. Whether it's long walks, hikes, or playing fetch, Peach loves outdoor adventures and would make a great companion for someone who enjoys being active. While she's a sweet and affectionate dog, her new family should continue working on her impulse control and basic commands, especially using positive reinforcement to address her jumping behavior. Peach previously lived with another dog and should do well in a home with a canine companion, though a meet and greet between Peach and any potential dog siblings is necessary before making a final decision. With the right guidance and consistency, we are confident Peach will become a well-mannered, loyal companion.She is looking for a home where she can channel her energy in a positive way and with the right commitment to force-free positive reinforcement training, she will be an amazing addition to any family. Peach has a spay appointment booked for December 2nd and will need to be a foster-to-adopt until that time.If you are interested in her please come and meet her at the Centre - we're open for walk-in viewing Tuesday to Saturday Noon - 4 pm (except for Stat Holidays).Sundays and Mondays are by appointment only.

Bunny is currently in a foster home and not available for viewing in the shelter - Meet Bunny, a sweet mama who is ready to find a fur-ever family of her own. Bunny is a sweet girl who loves affection and attention, she's adventurous loves her walks and has amazing recall. She is still learning her basic manners, like sit, but lots of yummy treats and affection, she is happy to learn. Bunny at times can find other dogs on walks a bit overstimulating, so she just needs positive reinforcement training to build more confidence. She's not much for snuggles but always wants to be close and will follow you wherever you move in the house. She loves to play and has lots of youthful energy inside her still. All in all she is very loyal and loving and will make an amazing companion to some who can keep up with her ♥ Bunny is not yet spayed, so she will need a local foster to adopt family who is able to bring her back for her surgery date early December.

Hi, my name is Bambi! I am a gentle, special needs angel currently living with dogs just like me in the Middle East until I can find my forever family! I am excited to find a home patient, experienced and as in love with me as I will ABSOLUTELY be with them!  Name: BambiBreed: Australian Shepherd / Shepherd MixAge: 3 years oldGender: FemaleWeight: 23 kgHeight: 65 cmHighlights: loves other dogs, bonds quickly with humans, playful, kind - currently living in a home with other disabled dogs When my guardian angel found me in the street, I was only 8 months old. I could barely walk and I was barely strong enough to get around. My rescuer was so kind and took me to her home where I have been nurtured ever since. I live with other super playful disabled dogs and I am really happy!The vet thinks I was hit by something on my back when I was a puppy and that is how I became paralyzed from the waist down. I have no feelings down there so my guardian angel human helps me when it comes to peeing and pooping. I am slowly getting better but I will need a family as loving as her that is willing to take me to physiotherapy sessions and help me gain the strength back in my muscles down there! I am super kind and bond quickly with humans. I love being around others but I also do really amazing on my own! No separation anxiety for this girlie. I am independent despite my disabilities! Fun fact about me: I can walk using my two front legs for a really long time without getting tired and I LOVE having a house with a yard. I am a big fan of exploring new places! Energy level: Medium - my disability doesn't slow me down! I love to play Get along with:Dogs: yesCats: UnsureKids: Unsure Fears: Unsure, please be patient with me to work through any that may come upTraining: I am a VERY quick learner and though I have disabilities, I do love to listen. Please be prepared to continue training with me.Leash skills: Please be patient and prepared to continue training with me as my walking looks a little different.House trained: Please be prepared to support me with this as I work with physiotherapy to gain some independence back Health notes: As mentioned above, I am paralyzed from waist down! Besides this, I am a happy, healthy girl :)! I have been spayed, vaccinated and microchipped. My adoption fee is $650.00 CAD plus applicable taxes. This includes my transportation from the Mid East, if I am able to be accompanied by a flight volunteer directly to Vancouver. Most passengers from the Middle East now require a fee to accompany a dog on a flight. Due to this, if a rescuer finds a flight with this requirement, we will contact you to see if you are willing to pay the passenger. You are under no obligation to do this. If not, another flight will need to be searched for, though there is no guarantee a free or lower cost one will be found. Though oft times a passenger is requesting higher amounts, the fee will not exceed $250. Our rescuers work extremely hard finding flights and spend tremendous amounts of money caring for and sending these dogs to safety. They simply haven't the extra money to cover this. Thank you for your understanding. 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. [MID-EAST] *Vaccinations: Dogs originally from the Middle East are vaccinated for rabies, parvo, distemper, leptospirosis, adenovirus type 1 and para-influenza. Bordetella is not given, as that has not been a problem in the Middle East. ##2124517##

My rescuer is trying to get me to Canada in December. Hoping I will have an adopter waiting by then, so I can come. Howdy. My name is PASHA and here is a little info about me:Breed: Australian Shepard/Canaan Dog mixAge: 1-1/2 yrsGender: maleWeight: 12 kgHeight 42 cmCountry of origin: TurkeyHighlight(s): active, playful, friendly,I am a very active little boy. Hoping you are an active family so we can have lots of fun adventures together.Sadly, though I am young, my short life was spent chained up. Only recently the farmer that chains me started allowing my rescuer to walk me. The highlight of my day is afternoon walks with her. The farmer has agreed to relinquish me to her. Yeah. My life is on the way up.I am very friendly and have a healthy appetite. While I am playful, I also enjoy going just cruising out for walks and learning all the new things there are out there. I can be fearful of people encountered when out on a walk, especially if fast, large movements are made. This should improve, once I know I will no longer be hurt. I was likely mistreated/beaten by my former owner.Socializing is something I am learning to do with other dogs and how to walk on leash. I have been walking on the leash now for about one month. At the moment, I pull initially, but then settle down after about 15 minutes, likely because I am chained up all day snd excited for my walk. UPDATE: My resxuer says I am walking really well on the lead now. Smart and willing to learn boy am I.I am finding out what it means to be a dog that is loved. Are you ready to love me? My cute face says please. Energy Level: highI get along with:Dogs: yes: https://youtu.be/sltIWo1KkfUCats: unknownKids: unknown Fears: I cower easily if my leash is pulled or you make large movements. I will just need time and understanding.Training:Leash skills: Yes. Please be prepared to continue training.House trained: Not yet, but once I have an approved adopter, a foster home will be found to work on this. Please help me learn where to go on my new home. Health notes:I will be neutered, vaccinated & microchipped prior to travelling to Canada.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.

Hi. My name is Marco and here is some info about me: Breed: Miniature Austrailian ShepherdAge: 2 YearGender: MaleWeight:15 lbHeight: 15 inch Highlight(s): Good with other dogs, people, Nervouse around men and needs slow introduction Hello there! My name is Marco, and I am a 2-year-old miniature Australian Shepherd. I may be small, but I have a heart full of love and a gentle, sweet nature. Let me tell you a bit about my journey. I was bought as a puppy by a family who wanted a guard dog. Unfortunately, they didn’t realize just how tiny I would be. When they saw that I wasn’t going to grow into a large protector, they abandoned me in front of a shelter. It broke my heart to see my family leave me behind, but I try to stay positive. I am grateful to have a roof over my head and a safe place to stay, especially since the streets where I come from are dangerous for little dogs like me. Life at the shelter has been okay. I’ve made some wonderful furry friends and I love the humans here. Their attention and affection make my days brighter. Sadly, my original dad was not the nicest guy and as a result, I can be a little bit nervouse around men and require slow introduction.I dream of having my very own forever family someday, one that will love and care for me as much as I will for them. I imagine myself with my own bed, squeaky toys, and going on fun walks and hikes. Running after a ball and meeting new friends sounds like the best adventure ever! I’m a smart boy who listens well and learns quickly. I love to impress my humans and have been told that I don’t show any aggression or resource guarding. I just want to spread happiness with doggie kisses and joyful tail wags. Please consider giving me a chance. I may be small, but I promise to fill your life with love and joy. My heart is big, and I’m ready to share it with my forever family. I can’t wait to meet you! Energy Level: high requires daily physical activities. I get along with:Dogs: yesCats: UnknownKids: unknown, rescuer states yes, but no video proof Fears: Unknown/none observed. Please be patient assisting me in my transition. Training: yes/ basic, please be patient with me. I am a very fast learner and given the opportunity, I will learn all the tricks there is in no time.Leash skills: yes. Please be prepared to continue training me.House trained:Please be prepared to help me learn where to go in my new home.  Prey Drive: Unknown Health notes: I have been neutered, dewormed, microchipped and up to date on my vaccination.   My adoption fee is $850.00 CAD plus applicable taxes.
