Meet Layla! Layla is a stunning 5-year-old pup with a gorgeous, light brown coat, big, upright ears that practically demand ear scratches, and a heart full of love, just waiting for the right family. We think she might be a Shepherd-Pitty mix, but with rescue, its always a guess but one thing is certain: shes one of the sweetest girls you will ever meet. Layla is a little shy at first, and she takes her time warming up to new people. But the magic happens when she finds someone she trusts, her tail wags, her eyes sparkle, and she showers that person with quiet, devoted affection. Her foster has proven that with a little patience and love, Layla will absolutely learn to trust and adore her humans. Shes a gentle soul, the kind of dog who will curl up next to you, soak up pets, and quietly remind you that love does not always need words.
Ideal Home
Layla would be happiest in a home where she can decompress, feel safe, and let her personality shine at her own pace. She may need a little leash confidence in new places before apartment life is fully comfortable, but once shes settled, shell be a quiet, loving companion anywhere. Her perfect family is one that will understand her gentle, sensitive nature and give her the time she needs to trust new people. She absolutely needs a dog friend to share her life with; her happiness depends on having a fellow pup to lean on. Shell do beautifully in a calm home with older kids around 8 and up or adults who love slow snuggles, soft pets, and peaceful companionship. If your kitty minds their business, Layla will do the same!
Ongoing Health
Layla is healthy and up to date on all vetting, including spay/neuter, vaccinations, deworming, flea prevention, and a 12-month heartworm preventative injection. She also received a health certificate deeming her healthy for travel.
Training & Support
Layla is a little shy at first and takes her time warming up to new people. With patience and love, she will learn to trust and adore her humans.
