Hi, my name is SUKI and I am a calm and adventurous 7 year old husky who is looking for my forever family. I am living with a foster in Greater Vancouver but my foster has many terrific friends who have also become my friends - pretty lucky for me, eh?! Let me tell you a bit about myself...I have just turned 7 years old and I weigh 22 kg. I was living with a couple but something happened to them and so they were unable to keep me. I just love my humans and joining them on adventures. I love car travel, I love wading into streams and playing outdoors in Nature, and I especially love cuddles and strokes. Rub my belly and I'm a very happy dog! My only request is that my humans not touch me when I am sleeping or resting as I find it somewhat startling. I get along with other dogs, I've had no experience with cats, and I really love humans of all ages. My foster has been taking me for walks and I think I'm pretty good at leash walking and at greeting other dogs. I also have good manners at dog parks and enjoy playing with the other dogs.I would really like a home with a fenced back yard (if possible) and with humans who don't leave me alone for too long. It's not that I misbehave, it's just that I've had many sad hours alone in the past and I love to be with humans fo kind of make up for the time I've spent alone in the past. I'm not a barky or licky-type dog and I am quite chill indoors. I am fully housetrained.I would be very very happy to meet you and go for a walk to show you what a loving dog I am!I am immunized, spayed, and microchipped.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.
