About this Dog
Hi everyone, I'm the marvellous Mijo, an 8 year old whippet/husky mix!My Vancouver foster says that I am the epitome of a fun-loving canine companion, with a heart full of joy and a tail that never stops wagging. I am cuddly, affectionate, and love my furry friends and humans of all ages.My loyalty is unmatched; I'm just happy to be shadowing you, making sure everything is ok and just generally being a good companion. This however doesn't mean that I'm needy. I am quite understanding of personal space, so just give me a gentle command to lie down and I'll oblige. While I love being social, I am also independent enough to be on my own without any problems. Of course, I will always be overjoyed to see you return.Unfortunately, I had a rough start in life. I was rescued from the streets of Mexico, where I had hot oil poured on me and I was treated horribly. Someone finally rescued me from the streets, but more recently, my owner left me at the dog walker's place and just never came back for me. I can't understand why someone would just abandon me? Anyways, I am looking for my new forever family and home. Do you need a super-chill but confident companion? I might just be the one!While my hips are kind of stiff, I can jump in a car and go up and down stairs fine. Likely some glucosamine or other joint supplement will help.I can have a little nervous reaction of barking in a new environment when people approach me or another dog lunges/pulls towards me when out on a walk, I will lunge back in protective fear, but am fine on just a walk by. I settle down well once I feel more comfortable in the setting. Part of this may be my older vision, not seeing what is coming as easily. I actually love playing with other dogs and humans. I'm good at following commands too.I will need someone patient to work me through trepidation of new people coming into the home. It can take me a bit to warm up and feel comfortable with people. While I have no teeth, I might snap if pressed too quickly. Other than that character flaw, I'm really a good dog.Energy Level: moderateFears: none observed. Please be patient assisting me in my transition.Training: My foster says I do well at following cues and commands. Please be patient assisting me in my transition.Leash skills: some. Please be prepared to continue training.House trained: yes. Please help me learn where to go in my new home.I have been spayed/neutered, vaccinated and microchipped.My adoption fee is $650.00 CAD plus applicable taxes.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.

Adopt MIJO (local) yo and Receive Dogecoin
Adopting a pet can be expensive, and we're trying to help by fundraising for each individual in need of adoption. After verifying the adoption, MIJO (local) yo's new family will receive the funds that their pet has raised. Dogecoin is digital currency that can be exchanged for cash, traded, or held as an investment (see the "What is Dogecoin" section below).
0.0 DOGE is MIJO (local) yo's current Dogecoin balance
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the Dogecoin. If you adopted the MIJO (local) yo, thank you for providing a home and a loving family!
Please begin the process of claiming MIJO (local) yo's Dogecoin here.
For adoptions in which nokillnetwork.org was the matchmaker and we have contact information for both parties, we make every effort to contact the adopting family. For adoptions that were not facilitated by nokillnetwork.org, we still encourage the adopting family to claim the Dogecoin by submitting the necessary information.
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the Dogecoin. The adopting family will be required to provide proof of adoption between 4-6 weeks after adoption. This is to ensure that the home is a good match and MIJO (local) yo was not returned. After we have verified the adoption, MIJO (local) yo’s Dogecoin balance will be sent to the adopting family. Our staff provides instructions and help throughout this process.
"The fun and friendly internet currency."
Dogecoin sets itself apart from other digital currencies with an amazing, vibrant community made up of friendly folks just like you. Dogecoin is a decentralized, peer-to-peer digital currency that enables you to easily send money online.
Learn more about it on youtube or at dogecoin.com.
We want the MIJO (local) yo’s balance to go to the adopting family as a way to say thank you for providing a loving home and to help with pet care expenses. In the unfortunate event we cannot contact them and verify the adoption, MIJO (local) yo’s balance will remain in our general Dogecoin fund. This fund may be used to match contributions made to other adoptable pets, incentify other adoption-related actions, promote our mission, or support the operating expenses of nokillnetwork.org. If you would like to make a direct contribution to nokillnetwork.org to help us help other pets in need, you can go here. We appreciate your generosity and help!
