JET (LOCAL) sf

My story

Hi, my name is JET and here is a bit of info about me:Breed: Sinhala HoundAge: 3 yrsGender: MaleWeight: 40 lbsHeight: 24 InchesHighlight(s): Intelligent, Loving, Curious, Playful, enjoys hanging out It is something that so excites me to find a family to call my own! I am an intelligent and loving young dog who is a bit of a homebody.My current family loves me very much and wants the best for me, but they have a new situation and no longer can care for me. I originally came from Sri Lanka, so am all travelled out!I am a nice size and extremely cute, if I do say so myself, please note the white fur tips on my paws, tail, and head.Because I am young, I do have a decent amount of energy, but it doesn’t take too much to tire me out, however I will never say no to a forest hike or an adventure. Though excitable, as any young dog can be, I do calm down quickly.I have lived with a cat before but haven’t had much exposure to little kids so I would be best in a home without children. I can be a bit leash reactive to small, yappy dogs as I want to play and engage them.Not to brag, but I am a pretty smart cookie. I am generally great on a leash and I know a number of commands, including: sit, down, place, paw. I don’t bark too often, but sometimes there’s just things that need to be said.My ideal home would include a nice big yard, and perhaps another active dog friend (preferably a larger dog) to play with. I am happiest relaxing at home, and playing in the yard.I am happy, healthy and know I will be a fantastic addition to the right family! Energy level: moderate-highI get along with:Dogs: YesCats: YesKids: Unknown Fears: none observed. Please be patient assisting me in my transition.Training: leash and houseLeash skills: yes. Please be prepared to continue training.House trained: Yes. Please help me learn where to go in my new home. Health notes: HealthyI have been spayed/neutered, vaccinated and microchipped.My adoption fee is $800.00 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. 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. ##1790038##
