Hi there! My name is Zippy and here is a little info about me:Breed: Corgi mixAge: 5 years oldGender: FemaleWeight: 5–7 kgCountry of origin: TurkeyHighlights: Playful, social, affectionate, cat-friendly (with proper intro), loves games and bird watchingI may be tiny, but my love for life is huge. I’m a happy little girl who turns everyday moments into fun adventures!I was rescued and given a second chance at life, and ever since then, I’ve embraced every moment with joy. I’m now safe and dreaming of a forever home where I can share my playful spirit and loving heart.I’m energetic, playful, social, curious, and affectionate. I love interactive games like fetch and enjoy engaging with my humans. I have a joyful spark that makes people smile — whether I’m bouncing around or inviting you to play. I also have a calm and independent side; after playtime, I’m happy to relax in my cozy spot and quietly observe my surroundings (especially birds, I love watching them!).I would thrive in a home that offers both playtime and a calm, loving environment. I can live with other dogs and potentially cats with a slow and proper introduction. I’d do best with a family that enjoys interacting with me but also respects my quiet moments.Energy Level: Moderate to High (well-balanced)I get along with:Dogs: YesCats: Yes (with slow and proper introduction)Kids: UnknownFears:None observed. Please be patient assisting me in my transition.Training:Leash skills: Yes – I know how to walk on a leash. Please continue my training.House trained: I may need a little time to adjust to a new environment and routine, especially for potty habits. Please help me learn! Otherwise, I am very well-behaved, can stay home alone, and I’m not destructive.Health notes:No known health concerns.I have been spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped.My adoption fee is $700.00 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.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.
