My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

THE FIRST STEP IN THE PROCESS IS SUBMITTING AN APPLICATION EMBEDDED IN THE LISTING DESCRIPTION IF YOU READ THROUGH. WE DO NOT ACCEPT ADOPT-A-PET APPLICATIONS. WE CANNOT ANSWER EMAILS ASKING ABOUT A DOG'S AVAILABILITY. IF IT IS LISTED WITHOUT THE WORD "PENDING" IT MEANS IT IS AVAILABLE. IF YOU HAVE AOL or YAHOO PLEASE CHECK YOUR SPAM FILE FOR OUR RESPONSE

Layla was found on the side of a road in rural Arkansas with her buddy Cypress (already adopted), patiently waiting for whoever dumped them there to come back. What's saddest is that they waited for days right near the then-empty bag of dog food that whoever-it-was dumped with them. We got them off that remote road and to safety. And this is why we do what we do.

Layla has been grateful ever since! Despite her unfortunate beginnings, Layla is a friendly, loving and affectionate dog who has never met a stranger - - canine or human. She took a bit more TLC to get her to the beautiful condition she is in today, but she's ready and excited about her next chapter! Layla is a very smart girl and so eager to please, with just a soft gentle pat on the head as her reward. She took very quickly to crate-training and housebreaking -- she has learned "Go to your room" (which means "Get in your crate"), she knows her basic commands, and she always tells you when she has to go outside to potty. The visiting grandkids love her because she is very sweet and gentle with them -- she never jumps up on them. She is the best snuggler ever and has made her foster parents' bed her favorite sleeping spot!! (Of course, if you are not okay with that, she will sleep on her dog bed -- it's just that she just loves to be close to you!!!) She is great with other dogs, too! She and her foster's female, Priscilla, are best friends. They love running in the back yard and playing with their toys together. She is good with the cats at her foster home, just curious about them at first, but now mostly ignores them. This sweet girl has stolen the hearts of her foster parents and she will steal yours too! She will make someone or some family a wonderful companion.

We think Layla is a Black Mouth Cur mixed with some Retriever. If you don't know the Black Mouth Cur yet, search it on the internet and you'll wish you'd known about them long ago!! She is about 9 - 10 months old, she weighs about 40 pounds and she's a very healthy girl. If Layla is the Lover Girl for you, please visit www.pinkshelter.org for more information about the adoption process or click here for our online application. Full vetting, microchip and spay included in her $400 adoption fee. Transport fee is additional $150. IF YOU HAVE AOL or YAHOO PLEASE CHECK YOUR SPAM FILE FOR OUR RESPONSE
