Layla is a sweet, affectionate 10-year-old Chihuahua mix weighing about 19 pounds. She enjoys people, comfortable dogs, car rides, walks, yard time, cozy beds and couches, tummy rubs, short snuggles, and lap time. She is smart, independent, food-motivated, and eager to learn, with a playful spirit and a charming signature bark.

Layla is currently on a diet and exercise plan, with a goal weight of around 15 pounds. She is mostly comfortable with strangers but may bark initially, and she can be skittish around loud noises or sudden grabbing. She prefers not to share a sleeping space with another dog, though she rides calmly with her foster sisters and does well at the dog park. Her future home should take care around open gates, as she enjoys exploring and may roam.

Ideal Home

Layla would do well with people who appreciate her affectionate but independent nature and can continue supporting her diet and exercise plan. She enjoys other dogs she is comfortable with and is happiest with her own sleeping space.

Ongoing Health

Layla is currently working toward her goal weight of around 15 pounds under a diet and exercise plan.

Training & Support

Layla is potty trained and uses the yard. She is left uncrated when her foster parents are away because she does not chew or get into the trash. She is smart, eager to learn tricks, excellent in the car, and settles in her seat once the car is moving.
