NEFES (Turkey) kt

Good day all. My name is NEFES, and here is a little info about me:Breed: German Short-haired Pointer mixAge: 1 yearGender: MaleWeight: 17 kg (37 lbs)Country of origin: TurkeyHighlights: Exceptionally people-oriented, affectionate, humorous, thrives on human connection, playful, socialMy name means "Breath" - a symbol of life and calm - and that truly reflects my gentle, loving nature. I'm happiest when I'm close to my people.I was rescued from a shelter in Turkey. Even in the shelter environment, it was clear that what I wanted most wasn't freedom to roam - it was human connection. I would always try to be as close to people as possible, seeking comfort and companionship wherever I could find it.Being extremely people-oriented dog, I genuinely thrive on human closeness. While at the shelter, I once escaped my kennel and hid in the women's changing room, curling up peacefully and falling asleep - simply because I wanted to be near people.On another occasion, I climbed through an open window late at night and quietly tucked myself under a blanket beside my caregiver. My intention was never mischief - it was connection. These moments perfectly capture who I am: affectionate, funny, deeply loving, and happiest when sharing space with my humans. I'm really a joyful guy.I am playful and social, with a cheerful personality that makes people smile. I don't just enjoy attention - I seek meaningful closeness and companionship.A home where I can be an active part of daily life is a place I will thrive. A family or individual who enjoys having their dog close by - whether relaxing indoors or going for walks - would be ideal for me. I am well accustomed to walking on a leash amd doing my business outdoors.Additional video: https://youtube.com/shorts/9dF1-JKvZ-8Energy Level: ModerateI get along with:Dogs: YesCats: Unknown (rescuer states yes, await videos)Kids: Unknown (rescuer states yes, await videos)Fears: None observed.

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.
