Hello out there. My name is Lizelle and here is a little info about me:Breed: Canaan Dog mixAge: 1 yearGender: FemaleWeight: 40 lbsHeight: 20 inchesPUPDATE: Wooohooo, lookie me. I am showing strength putting weight standing on my left rear leg. https://youtu.be/mH3xXor5g1c.I am currently living in a foster home on Vancouver Island where I am getting therapy to help improve my mobility. I am trying so hard, as I really, really want to walk again. But until I can, I still race around with my buddies. I have a great zest for life that not even the limited use of my rear legs dampens. My start in life was challenging. I was hit by a car at two months of age. A lady found me, but did not immediately take me to a vet, as she had no money to do so. She did her best for me, but sadly the delay in treatment means I can’t use my back legs. However, an operation may be able to restore the use of my back legs. LALDR is working to raise the money for this surgery. Being very affectionate, I just love hoomans. In fact, I get very sad when my foster mom gives attention to other dogs. So if you have lots of loving to give, I am ready. Sometimes I get sad without attention and won’t eat my food.If there are other dogs in the house, I would love to play with them. My paralysis makes that challenging, but as you can see from my video I am up to it. I drag myself around with great skill. I am incontinent so my schedule is predictable and with time and patience, we have been able to work out a schedule. My foster mom says I am eager to learn, and I want to do everything I can to be the best dog ever. Although I am very comfortable with other dogs, I don’t know about cats or kids. Sadly, my life has been spent inside a home, so my dream is to experience the great outdoors. I would love to have a backyard that I could explore.One thing to know about me is that I have a strong bond with my buddy Bondoka. We wrestle and play together: https://youtu.be/_v86Pfow16w and she cares for me! My ideal home would be one where we could visit one another sometimes. However, we are up for adoption separately, as our foster mom says that since we are both so outgoing and friendly we will adjust well to being separated. Even with my special needs, I know there are wonderful people in Canada who would give me a chance for a better life. Please be my guardian angel :)New Aug vids: https://youtu.be/_o_2PgZH-n0, https://youtube.com/shorts/kHUCbalp-Jw.Here are some additional vids:My xrays - https://youtu.be/SpNi6g30PlEhttps://youtu.be/qA4EevUkIq4  -  Conehead timehttps://youtu.be/ID3tbvXxzzQ  -  trying to get aroundhttps://youtu.be/3LVfUuZTXZU -  first cart attempthttps://youtu.be/zSTbWOEjAfw -  in cart2And vids of me in the cart:https://youtu.be/jaBf4HczsNAhttps://youtu.be/xqq-G9GjDfYhttps://youtu.be/heZCkBFrbwwEnergy Level: moderate-lowI get along with:Dogs: yesCats: unknownKids: unknownPrey drive: unknown/not observed. My adopter needs to be willing to train me through these behaviours, should they arise.Fears: Not having a forever hooman to love me. Please be patient assisting me in my transition.Training: noneLeash skills: No. But even with a wheelchair, I can still be taught how to walk beside you & not pull.House trained: No. I am incontinent due to my paralysis.Health notes: Disabled. The vet tells me my pelvis was broken when I was hit by a car. My back bones are not straight and my feet aren’t right - they will need braces, if I am to try and walk again.I am soon to be spayed/neutered. I am vaccinated and microchipped.My adoption fee is $600.00 CAD plus applicable taxes.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 DOGS] *Vaccinations: Dogs 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.
