Hi, my name is SHYLO and below is some info about me:Breed: Whippet/Shepard mixAge: 2-1/2 yrsGender: maleWeight: 19 kg (41 lb)Country of origin: UAEHighlights: sweet natured, gentle, affectionate, well-mannered, very people friendly My rescuer states I am a remarkable dog. Both well mannered and sweet natured.This here boy's story began in the harsh deserts of the UAE, where I was rescued by a small, dedicated shelter operating with limited resources and no electricity—despite the scorching heat. I was one of 1,200 dogs struggling to survive in heartbreaking conditions.Despite the odds, my sweet nature and gentle temperament stood out. One of the shelter workers, moved by my resilience and loving spirit, brought me to a city-based shelter, hoping I’d have a better chance at finding the forever home I so deserved.My journey took a promising turn when an Italian expat family fostered me. I quickly settled in, basking in the warmth of family life, and for a while, it seemed I had finally found my home. Sadly, when the family had to return to Italy due to job loss, I was brought back to the shelter. That’s when my current rescuer saw my story on social media and felt an immediate connection.They brought me into their family, and I blended in beautifully with all of thema 10-year-old child, the husband, and their house help. However, despite every effort, I have not been able to find common ground with their 10-year-old Canadian Boxer girl. It’s become clear that we’re just not a good match. While I am fine with other dogs, sometimes personalities clash, just like with people. So, they’re now searching for a loving forever home for me.They say I am truly a joy: affectionate, sweet, gentle and incredibly people-friendly. While get along with other dogs, I'd likely do best as an only fur child in the home. I'd do great having a 2 legged sibling or two though.I can be slightly over reactive to external sounds. I can get quite scared with my normal reaction being, if possible, to remove myself from the area and preferable go to my safe place. If I am unable to extract myself from the position, then the next normal response is to bark - but it’s not an aggressive bark. So providing me with a "safe zone" is appreciated. In time, I shoild learn what is normal, so reactions will fade. I do bark at door bells though. A trainer should be able to help with this. I am fairly good on leash, though I do pull sometimes. Continued training in this area is a good idea. As you csn see, I am still on high alert outside yet.I deserve the safety, affection, and stability of a home that’s truly mine. Any family that will open their heart to a dog with resilience like me, will have their lives changed. It is my hope you will let me bring happiness into your life and love into your heart.

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. 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. 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. 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. You will NOT be asked to pay a passenger fee on top of the cargo fee. [MID-EAST] *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.[TURKEY] Dogs from Turkey receive a 4D SNAP test to include Leishmania, Heartworm, Ehrlichia, & Anaplasma, as well as Giardia, Parvo, Corona & Distemper. ##2488328##
