Loved at Last Dog Rescue Society

The success of our organization is rooted in our dedicated group of volunteers both local and abroad. We have partnered with like-minded individuals in countries including but not limited to the Middle East, Bahrain, India, Turkey, Mexico and Vietnam to help change the lives of some of the world’s most in-need animals. As we do not have a physical location, we depend on the support of the local community in the form of foster homes and potential adopters.According to the World Health Organization, there are more than 200 million stray dogs worldwide (as of 2017). The lives of these street dogs is particularly short and difficult in countries with limited resources dedicated to animal welfare. This is where we come in. Our partners abroad work tirelessly to take in stray dogs who are most in need of medical care. They (and you) are their best chance for survival. Generally, the process begins with the dogs being rescued off of the streets, restored to health and rehabilitated by these compassionate individuals.Loved at Last Dog Rescue is a society of dog loving volunteers who are committed to assisting in the rehoming of local dogs and rescuing dogs (often disabled) from high kill countries around the world. LALDR does not profit from any adoption fees. All donations to Loved at Last Dog Rescue are used to cover the cost of veterinary care, special equipment such as prosthetics and wheelchairs and to assist in the transportation of the dogs. The specific objectives and purpose of this organization shall be: a) To assist owners who are no longer able to care for their dog in re-homing the dog. b) To educate people about the importance of adopting, not buying, a dog. To educate people about street dogs and abused dogs and to provide a network of support to dog owners. c) To save dogs in need and at risk whenever possible, especially in situations where there is a potential for unnecessary euthanasia. d) To educate people about spaying and neutering, as well as the identification and registration, of domestic pets. We have a passion for preserving life and for protecting those who can't speak for themselves. To champion for those who are victimized by cruelty.

Meet Shima (arriving Apr 17, ST)

Breed: Wheaten terrier mixAge:2.5 year oldGender: FemaleWeight: 45 lbs Height: 23 inch Highlight(s): Good with other dog,  people, no signs of aggression or resource guarding observed. 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?Energy Level: Medium/high, requires daily activities.I get along with:Dogs: yesCats: UnknownKids: yes, but no video proofFears: Unknown/none observed. Please be patient assisting me in my transition.Prey drive: None observed, Please be patient assisting me in my transition.Training:  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: Know where to go potty at my current location, however, please be prepared to help me learn where to go in my new home. 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.

Spay/neuter if animal currently too young & return policy to us if animal can no longer be kept, unless other contract arrangements previously made.
