My story

Good day everyone. My name is Willow and here is some info on me:Breed: Labrador Retriever/Rottie/Pittie mixAge: 4 yrsGender: femaleWeight: 85 lbsHeight: tbdHighlight(s): sweet, people loving, alert, happy, eager to learn. I am a super sweet girl who loves people.My owners dropped me at the shelter in Texas, stating I am protective of my space, but it really seems to be because they are about to have a baby and don't want to bother with training me. Sad.Don't you just love my sleek black fur. Yup, I'm a happy labbie something, something, something mix... LOL. Best of all worlds. Grin.I have typical young dog energy. Toned down a tad now that I am 4 though.Now, while I do love people, I will bark at first if someone new comes to the house. That is my alert to my owner, hey someone is here. Once I see my owner is fine with them though, then I am friendly too. Being treat motivated helps. A morsel of cheese or other goodie and I am mush in your hands.I won the doggie jackpot being fostered by a dog trainer!!! Being with my foster I have developed confidence and have learned how to behave appropriately around other dogs. With proper introductions I seem to be good with pretty much all dogs now, Yay!!! I would love a forever home that will continue to set structure and boundaries to make me a confident doggo. Just give me consistent reinforcement & encouragement and I know I will be the dream dog you desire.My former owners kept trying to force interactions I was not comfortable with, since they just didn't have the experience to handle me. I just needed time to adjust and a bit of training and I am a new GIRL!!!. Truly, I am just a honey bunny, who you'll enjoy cuddling. Oh, I'm also already house-trained. Bonus score. Elle taking a treat:https://youtu.be/KCO0QZmhd6w Elle playing with her human foster sister:https://youtu.be/lCb5rUBwgh0 Energy Level: moderateI get along with:Dogs: yes, (prefer submissive, not alpha types)Cats: unknownKids: trainer says yes but no video proof Fears: unknown/none observed. Please be patient assisting me in my transition.Training: some leash trainingLeash skills: some. Please be prepared to continue training.House trained: yes. Please help me learn where to go in my new home. Health notes:I have been spayed/neutered, vaccinated and microchipped Video of Willow playing with human sibling: https://youtu.be/LQEZAdytoHIMy adoption fee is $750.00 CAD plus applicable taxes. This includes my transportation to Canada, if I am able to be accompanied by a flight volunteer directly to Vancouver. 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. ##1811640##
