Lyla 35148

Lyla is a 2-4 year old Labrador mix with a heart full of love. Although she may be shy at first, Lyla quickly warms up, transforming into a cuddly and friendly companion. Her energetic spirit makes her an excellent partner for adventures, but she is just as content to relax by your side. Lyla's independent nature allows her to enjoy her own space, making her a well-balanced pet. If you’re looking for a loyal friend who can energize your days and provide comfort, Lyla is the perfect match.

Ideal Home

Lyla can be a well-balanced pet. We encourage meet-and-greets with your dog before adoption. Cat tests are available if requested. Always be careful when introducing dogs to cats. Advice about dogs living with children is based on behavior like energy level and how the dog handles touch. Young children should never be left alone with dogs, and we cannot guarantee how any dog will behave with kids or other pets.

Ongoing Health

Training & Support

Behavior seen in the shelter is just a snapshot and may change in a home. Dogs come from many backgrounds and may need training, time, and patience. Dogs should not be fed together unless you know they do not guard food. We also suggest learning about a dog's breed or mix to be sure it fits your family. Moving to a new home can be stressful for dogs. Use the Rule of 3 to help them adjust:

• First 3 days: Dogs may feel scared, tired, overexcited, or not want to eat.
• First 3 weeks: Dogs start learning routines and may show new behaviors. Keep things calm and avoid busy places.
• First 3 months: Dogs usually feel settled and more comfortable.
