Lyla is a very affectionate Golden Retriever mix who was born in December of 2018. This girl is looking for a new home with no children. Lyla does get along with other dogs but because she does NOT like to share her food or toys, she needs to be an only dog. Lyla LOVES to spend time outside on nice days so a fenced yard is a must!
Lyla has made a lot of progress in foster care. She does still guard high value objects on occasion, but she is easily persuaded to drop the item if a treat is involved! Lyla is very loyal and loves human attention to the point she sometimes has to be told to go lay down. She loves car rides and is very well behaved in a car or in the house. The ideal home for Lyla would be an adult only home with no other pets. If Lya has to work on anything it would be walking on a leash because she gets so excited to explore new places that she does pull. But with a bit of free training from Muddy Paws, we are sure she can be loose leash walking in no time!
Lyla is a bit chubby so does need to be on a lower calorie kibble and exercised/walked daily. But she just celebrated a 25 pound weight loss over the past 10 months!
Lyla is very attached to her foster mom, so will require a few visits to transition her into her new home.
Lyla was recently diagnosed with Addisons Disease caused by decreased hormone production from the outer part or cortex of the adrenal gland. She is on prednisone daily which costs about $20 per month. There is a good likelyhood that in the future she may require a shot every 25 days, which can be given at home or by a vet. This medication is estimated to run around $100 per month.
The suggested adoption donation for Lyla is $365, which is TAX DEDUCTIBLE, and goes toward providing supportive services to animals in the home, as well as the high cost of vetting our dogs in rescue. If you would like to welcome Lyla into your home, please begin by submitting our Adoption Application. The adoptions for all of our dogs will take place in the Omaha, NE area and must be done by the adoptive family in person. We do not ship or deliver the dogs.
