My name is LUNARA (Luna) and here is a little info about me:Breed: Spaniel/Terrier mixAge: 2 yrsGender: femaleWeight: 22 lbsHeight: 16 inchesCountry of origin: Middle EastHighlight(s): Exceptionally affectionate, cuddly, calm, gentle, friendly, loyal, easy-goingOne Ear Up, One Ear Down, cute face, relaxed attitude and a heart full of love. What more can you ask for?My journey began during the war. When my family fled our home, I was left alone on a small balcony. A compassionate neighbor noticed I had been abandoned. With permission to use a spare key, she safely rescued me. Since that day, I have never stopped believing that someone out there will love me forever.I'm the kind of dog who simply wants to be close to my people. Whether relaxing beside you cuddling on the couch, following you around the house, or quietly asking for cuddles, my gentle and exceptionally affectionate personality shines through every moment. Being a calm, and easy-going pupper, I am eager to bond with my peeps. Inwill bring a sweet harmony to our home with my sweet & loyal temperament.It's been said by people who meet me that my adorable face is unforgettable, with one ear standing tall while the other flops over, perfectly matching my unique charm.I walk nicely on a leash, but still need a little guidance. I'm not yet fully house trained, but confident that I will learn the remainder of the ropes when I get into my new home. If not, before then. I just need patience and routine. I am friendly with both people and other dogs. Not sure about kitty cats yet. Nor kids.Currently, I live in a foster home environment with several other rescue dogs—including two huskies—and get along wonderfully with everyone.After everything I have has survived, I deserve a family who will never leave me behind again. I don’t ask for much—just a safe home, kind hands, and someone to love.Video coming soon.Energy Level: moderateI get along with:Dogs: yesCats: unknownKids: unknownFears: unknown/none observed. Please be patient assisting me in my transition.Training: briefly describeLeash skills: some. Please be prepared to continue training.House trained: In progress. Please help me finish learning!Health notes:I have been spayed/neutered, vaccinated and microchipped.My adoption fee is $800.00 CAD plus applicable taxes.This includes my transportation to Canada, if I am able to be accompanied by a flight volunteer directly to Vancouver. While our rescuers always seek a flight without a charge, there is the possibility of a passenger fee, not to exceed $300.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.
