Meet Nora (Middle East, ST)
Breed: Maltese terrier mixAge:1 year oldGender: FemaleWeight: 15 lbs Height: 11 inch Hi, I’m Nora!I may only have three legs, but that doesn’t slow me down one bit! I’m a one-year-old terrier mix with a heart full of love and a spirit that just won’t quit. Life wasn’t always kind to me—I was found badly injured, and despite all the care and effort, my front leg couldn’t be saved. But you know what? That’s all in the past, and I’ve never let it hold me back!I’m a happy, playful girl who loves people of all ages. Whether it’s cuddles, belly rubs, or just hanging out, I’ll be right there by your side, soaking up all the love. I get along with other dogs, but I do like to take my time getting to know them. Slow introductions help me feel safe and comfortable. Generally, I enjoy being the centter of attention, I mean who wouldn't! Cats, on the other hand… well, let’s just say I find them very interesting and love to chase them around!Car rides? Count me in! Walks? Oh yes, please! I may be a tripaw, but I still love to go on little adventures with my humans. One thing I do ask is that you let me enjoy my food and treats in peace—I had to go without for a long time, and sometimes I get a little protective over my meals. But with love and patience, I know I can work on it!I’m a smart girl, too—I know where to go potty at the shelter, and I’m always eager to learn new things. More than anything, I dream of finding a quiet, loving family where I can truly thrive. If you’re looking for a loyal, affectionate companion who will fill your days with love and plenty of kisses, I’m your girl!Could you be my forever family?Energy Level: Medium/high, requires daily activities.I get along with:Dogs: yes, proper intoduction requiredCats: NoKids: yes, but no video proofFears: Unknown/none observed.

Health notes: I have been dewormed, microchipped and up to date on my vaccination. I have been spayed.My adoption fee is $800.00 CAD plus applicable taxes. While our rescuers always seek a flight without a charge, there is the possibility of a passenger fee, not to exceed $300.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.
