My story

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

Layla is a ten-year-old lady who knows what she likes (and what she doesn't), and is looking for a patient family who's willing to give her the time she needs to settle in. Will you give this sweet senior the loving home she deserves?

We'll be honest with you - Layla's a hound mix and wears her hound-like personality on her sleeve. She's going to bark, that's just how she communicates! But because of her vocal tendencies, apartment living isn't in the cards for Miss Layla.

On that same note, Layla's hound genes mean she needs extra mental stimulation. Sniffing games and snuffle mats are her favorite extracurriculars! Despite her age, Layla's not a couch potato kind of dog. She's still pretty spry and will happily tag along for long walks and outdoor activities.

Now let's talk roommates: Layla is a bit picky and prefers laid-back, male canine companions. She must meet all potential siblings - canine or human - prior to adoption to ensure everyone gets along. Layla tends to take the "aloof" approach with kiddos but doesn't mind sharing space with them.

Above all, Layla wants and deserves to spend her golden years outside of the shelter. She's got so much love to give and promises that your patience and understanding will be rewarded with her unconditional love.
