Critter Details

Hola amigos. My name is MORNING GLORY (Nova), and here is a bit about me:Breed: Terrier/Catahoula mixAge: 3 yrsGender: femaleWeight: 50 lbsHeight: 20 inchesCountry of origin: MexicoHighlights: Sweet, affectionate, smart, obedient, outgoingImagine a sweet Terrier mix who lives for hugs and kisses, that’s me! I’m ready to brighten your every morning with a wagging tail and a heart full of joy.Life began safely at a shelter in Mexico after my mama was rescued from the streets while pregnant with my siblings and me.Having been around kind rescuers from day one, trusting and loving humans comes naturally to me.While I’ve known safety, what I’ve never known is a permanent, stable home of my very own.Being an outdoorsy girl, going on walks and adventures is the highlight of any day!Whether it's playing with other doggie friends (after a proper intro, of course) or chasing after curious things like squirrels and birds, staying active is a must.Once the exercise is done, chilling at home and soaking up affection is the best way to end the day.Being both smart and obedient makes for a great combo, learning new things to please my humans is one of my favorite tasks!A stable environment would be a dream to help build my confidence, especially since loud fireworks can be a bit scary.While cats are still a bit of a mystery (they're a little intimidating!), my genes suggest I'll do just fine with kids, as my siblings and cousins are already thriving in families with children.A home that offers a mix of outdoor fun and indoor snuggles would be the perfect match.Videos coming soon.Energy Level: moderateI get along with:Dogs: yesCats: unknownKids: unknownFears: fireworks. Please be patient assisting me in my transition.Training:Leash skills: mostly. Please be prepared to continue training.House trained: Yes. Please help me learn where to go in my new home.Crate trained: YesHealth notes:I have been spayed/neutered and vaccinated.Loved at Last will even cover the cost of my microchip at one of their partner vets.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.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.
