Good day, my name is Layla and here's a bit about me:Breed: Poodle/Terrier mixAge: 11 monthsGender: FemaleWeight: 4 kgHeight: 38 cmI'm shy, but very loving.My mom was lost and trying to cross a highway in Mexico one evening and was hit by a car. She lay unconscious in the road, but luckily my foster dad was walking along the highway and ran out quickly to stop the oncoming traffic before she got run over again. She only suffered a few scrapes and bruises, but was covered in fleas and was a bag of bones. She was someone’s pet, but must have gotten lost and was living on the streets for a while.She recovered and gained weight… maybe a little too much weight. My mom was actually pregnant with me and my 3 siblings. I was born secretly during the night. I grew up with my brothers and my foster’s dad other rescue dog and cat.So having a home with another dog to keep me company is important.I love belly rubs. I will tap your leg and flip myself around for one. I also love crawling onto your lap and putting my head on your leg. I just love being close to my owners. I usually let my brothers go first. I’m more timid and usually the one in the back. I warm up quickly, if you call my name though.I'm playful and affectionate, but not a licky kind of dog. Please, won't you bring me into your home?Energy Level: moderateI get along with:Dogs: yesCats: unknown, likely yesKids: unknownFears: loud noises and strangers when strolling outside.

Please be prepared to train meHouse trained: still in process (pees outside reliably, but occasionally poops inside.) Please continue to help me learn!Health notes:I have been spayed/neutered & vaccinated.Our adoption fee is $850.00 CAD plus applicable taxes for both of us together. This includes our transportation 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.
