My story

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

Pisa is looking for their forever home!

WHAT MY FOSTER SAYS: A mix of absolute perfection, you can't help but fall in love with Pisa's smooshy face and adorably clumsy nature. She's been known to bonk her nose a few times when excitedly turning around after you before shaking it off and continuing to follow after you. Part of her excitement with life is that she loooves to sniff. She loves old and new smells, but will plop onto the ground when she's decidedly satisfied with her sniffing accomplishments. The only exception to her sniffing is seemingly other dogs and people, of which she has little care for on walks. She knows she's your main girl and that's enough for her to ignore any passerby of human or animal kind. In the home, she may be a little hesitant at first, but quickly warms to invite pets and affection. If you want a dirty dog that tracks mud through your house, Pisa may not be your girl. She is not a fan of wet grass or mud, and will only stoop down to touching wet grass if there is business that needs attending to. BEWARE this wrinkly-faced monster will... continuously lick your fingers. That's right, day or night if she wants attention, to play, or just wants to show you just how much she loves you, she can, and will, take it out on your fingers. She also will, and has, quickly picked up new routines like using staircases, waiting for her food, and being the sweetest and most well-behaved girl you'll ever meet.

ATTRIBUTES: Pisa does well with other dogs.

Laila's Legacy Animal Rescue does not guarantee that any dog is housebroken nor crate trained. We strive to provide accurate information on all of our animals however, we are unable to guarantee an animal's breed, size, health, behavior, temperament, or any other conditions. Our adoption fees are not inclusive of all vetting / medical care, food, supplies and/or training costs. Since we rely on donations to compensate for those deficits we are unable to reduce or refund this fee.

More about this rescue

Laila's Legacy missions is to ensure every homeless dog - including those with behavioral or physical challenges - that comes through our doors has a chance at a better life while educating the public on breed bias, individualistic training, and the importance of spay-neuter to lower the impact of returned and abandoned animals in shelters.
