Lala is a big, super sweet and happy, friendly 65lb goober girl! She is about 2 years young, and loves people and dogs of all kinds. People love her and give her attention everywhere she goes because she's so sweet and gorgeous! She loves to give gentle hugs and offer her paw to hold hands, while gazing softly into their eyes. Lala is gentle with children of all ages, but does get overwhelmed with younger children who want to play with her too much.
Her temperament is gentle and she typically has a low to moderate energy level. However, she is still puppy-like and very playful with other dogs, loves to wrestle and tries to engage in play with every kind of dog. She would love to have a play buddy at home to play with! Other dogs may bark at her due to her size and friendliness, but she does not react or bark back, she's such a good girl!
Lala does require gentle and experienced owners who can help her understand boundaries with other dogs, and continue walking and separation anxiety training, so that she can continue being a good big girl! Lala was likely left in a backyard before and had escaped, as she does dig holes when she's bored and left outside alone. We wish for her to be able to have an engaged forever family who wants to actively experience life along with them, as she is still young and has a lot to see!
At her foster home, Lala has learned how to:
✅ Ride well in the car
✅ Respect older and smaller dogs
✅ Leash walking: Come back when she gets to the end of the leash or when called
✅ Sit, stay, come, leave it, shake, lay down
✅ Loves brush-outs, as she does shed quite a bit!
✅ Stay calm when left in the house
Lala is still working on:
Crate training
100% loose-leash walking (Lala still pulls a bit due to her size)
Ignoring dogs that she wants to play with
Staying still for nail trims and baths
Not sure if she's friendly with cats, but she does try to chase squirrels
