Hello! My name is Mug. Here is some information about me:Breed: Dachshund MixAge: 2 years oldGender: MaleWeight: 10 lbsHeight: tbd Meet MugMug is a little survivor with a gentle soul and a wagging tail that never gave up.Also just 10 lbs, Mug was abandoned alongside 13 other dachshunds in California, left in a dirt area with minimal supplies and no comfort. But even after that experience, Mug hasn’t lost his sweetness—in fact, it shines through in everything he does.When shelter staff interact with him, his tail wags, his eyes soften, and you can see it clearly… he still believes good people are out there. Mug embodies everything people adore about dachshunds—affectionate, loyal, and quietly devoted. He may start off a little observant, taking in the world around him, but once he feels safe, he’ll be right by your side, soaking up love and giving it right back. He’s the kind of dog who will treasure his person deeply and make every day brighter just by being there.Whether it’s snuggling under a blanket, going for little adventures, or simply sitting beside you, Mug is happiest when he’s part of your world.He’ll be arriving in Vancouver on April 26th, ready for a new beginning—a life filled with kindness, stability, and love.Mug has been through uncertainty… now he deserves forever.I get along with:Dogs: yesCats: unknownKids: unknownEnergy Level: tbdFears/Prey Drive: tbdTraining: tbdLeash Skills: tbd.

This includes my neuter and transport to Canada.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 the dog is shown to be good with children we will approve homes with children 8 years or older. More information can be found on our website. 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 charged the passenger fee in addition to this.[MID EAST DOGS] *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.
