Madeleine (S. Korea) hz

Hi, I'm Madeleine! Here is a little info about me:Breed: Jindo mixAge: 1 yearGender: Female Weight: 36 lb Highlight(s): Good with other dogs, happy, playfulI'm a sweet, shy little pup with a big heart and a hopeful spirit.2025 January, I ended up in a city pound with my three siblings. We were just tiny babies-around two months old-and sadly, our mama wasn't with us. We waited and waited for someone to choose us, but no one came. After two long months, when time was almost up, a kind rescue saved us from euthanasia. Now I'm living in a foster home, learning all about how wonderful life can be.I'm still a bit unsure around new people and situations, but I'm trying my best every day. When I start to trust you, I'll let you pick me up and snuggle me. I'm still getting used to the outside world-cars, walks, and new places can feel overwhelming, and I often tuck my tail or freeze when I'm scared. My foster mom is gently helping me gain confidence, one little step at a time.Even though I'm a bit shy, I love playing with other dogs. Other dogs make me feel happy and safe, and I'm very respectful and friendly with them. I even spent time with a few cats and didn't bother them at all!I've never shown any aggression or guarding behavior, and I don't bark much at all. I'm also not an escape artist or particularly anxious when left alone. I do get a little nervous in the car, and I'm still working on house training and walking confidently on a leash. But hey, I'm a work in progress, and I'm learning more every day!If you have a calm, patient home (maybe with another friendly dog?), I think we could be a perfect match. All I need is time, love, and a gentle hand to help me grow into the brave, happy dog I know I can be.Love,MadeleineI get along with:Dogs: YesCats: YesKids: UnsureEnergy level: Moderate.

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.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.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.
