About Lea

Lea is a beautiful, large-breed girl weighing approximately 84 pounds. She has a sweet expression and a gentle presence that shines through once she feels comfortable and secure. Lea is a loving, loyal, and gentle dog who thrives on companionship and routine. While she can be cautious in new situations, she has made progress in foster care and continues to gain confidence every day. She is calm and quiet in the home, rarely barks, and enjoys relaxing near her people. Lea has a moderate energy level and still has some puppy in her! She enjoys daily walks and outdoor time but settles nicely in the home and appreciates a calm environment. Lea is affectionate, forms strong bonds with her family, and has done well with children. She may take a little time to warm up to new people, but once she does, her sweet personality shines. Lea is still building confidence around other dogs and will benefit from continued positive-reinforcement training to help her feel more comfortable. She is always excited to see other pups and wants to play! Lea came into rescue with little known about her past. Since entering foster care, she has decompressed beautifully, is eating well, responding nicely to her foster family, and has shown improvement on leash. She is well-mannered in the home and continues to blossom with consistency and patience.

Ideal Home

Lea would thrive with a patient family committed to continuing her training and confidence-building. Because of her size, she would do best with adopters comfortable handling a large dog.

Training & Support
