NESSA Airedale Terrier Mix Langley, BC

Hi my friends! My name is Nessa and here's some information about me:

PHYSICAL INFO:


Breed: Terrier mix (a best guess!)
Age: 3 years approx.
Gender: Female
Weight: 44lbs (20 kg)
Current Location: Guadalajara Mexico


RESCUE STORY - I was found living on the streets of a town called Paracho. Street life was really tough for me because I looked a little different from the other street dawgs...I had patchy hair and I looked a bit worse for wear. This unfortunately caused me to be bothered by other dogs and people - some who would even try to scare me, hit me or throw water at me! One day a kind lady found me and took me to the vet. It was here that I was diagnosed with Cushing's Syndrome and we had an answer for my patchy hair! Now with my medication, I am feeling much better and ready to find love with a hooman family to call my own (for the very first time)! My ideal hoomans will be able to help me manage my condition which requires daily medication (one pill a day) and frequent blood tests. In exchange, I will give them endless cuddles and love and be the bestest girl they ever met!

TEMPERAMENT - I'm a real gem! My foster family describes me as calm, gentle, sweet, quiet and low energy. I am also friendly towards everyone and everything - including cats, kids and other pups! What more could you ask for? I really love being around hoomans and am somewhat of a couch potato. However when I do venture out, either for a car ride or a little walk, I am extremely well behaved.

ENERGY LEVEL - Low

GETS ALONG WITH:


Kids Yes! I do well with kids as you can see here.
Dogs Yes! I get along very well with other pups.
Cats Yes! I am good with cats as you can see here.
PREY DRIVE - Unknown. I'm not too sure how I'll react around squirrels/rabbits etc. My adopter needs to be prepared and willing to train me through these behaviours, should they arise.


TRAINING:


Leash skills My rescuer says I am very good with this as you can see here, however I may need some additional patience and training.
House trained My rescuer says I am very good with this but I may need some additional training and patience.
Crate trained My rescuer says I am very good with this but I may need some additional training and patience.
Car rides My rescuer says I am excellent in a car as you can see here but I may need some additional training and patience.


Please Note: WCP highly encourages adopters to do some research and training on their own before their dog arrives.

HEALTH NOTES:


I have Cushing's Syndrome, an endocrine disorder which is managed with a daily medication (one pill a day). This has altered my appearance and this conditon will require regular blood tests.
I am spayed and vaccinated.
NOTE: It is not uncommon for rescue dogs to require dental work/cleaning after they are adopted. West Coast Paws does not cover the costs of dental work and/or vet visits. These costs are the financial responsibility of the adopter.


ADOPTION FEE:


My adoption fee is $690.00 CAD including tax (5% GST, 7% PST), which includes my airfare, if a flight volunteer is found directly to Vancouver.
