My story

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

Meet Layla: Your Playful Forever Friend

Hello, future family! My name is Layla, and I’m a joyful, spirited pup with a heart full of love and a tail that never stops wagging. I’m looking for my forever home, and I think you might be the one I’ve been waiting for.

I was first adopted from the Humane Society of Yuma when I was just six months old. Life took me on a journey, and in September I found myself back at the shelter. I waited there for two months, hoping my family would come for me, but no one did. Then, Central Arizona Animal Rescue stepped in to give me another chance at finding the home I truly deserve. Now I’m here, ready to meet you and start the next chapter of my life.

My Personality

I’m playful, energetic, and full of joy. Running, chasing, and playing with my doggy buddies is my absolute favorite thing to do. I share a yard with other dogs, and I get along wonderfully with them. If you already have a dog, I’d love to be their new best friend. If you don’t, I’ll happily be your one and only!

I don’t know much about cats yet, so I can’t promise how I’d do with them. As for kids, I haven’t had the chance to spend time with little ones here. I’d probably be fine, but I might be a little too excitable for very small children. My enthusiasm is part of my charm—I just love life too much to sit still!

My Skills

I’m spayed, current on all my vaccinations, and microchipped so I’ll never get lost again. I walk well on a leash, though I could use a little more practice to become a true professional. I’m eager to learn, and with your guidance, I’ll be the best walking partner you could ask for.

We don’t know for sure if I’m house trained, but I’m smart and willing to learn. With patience, consistency, and love, I’ll quickly figure out the routine in my new home.

Why Choose Me ❤️

Adopting me means gaining a loyal companion who will fill your days with laughter, play, and unconditional love. I’ve already proven that I’m resilient, and I’m ready to give my heart to someone who will cherish me forever. I’m not just looking for a house—I’m looking for a family, a place where I belong, and people who will see me for the wonderful dog I am.

Imagine me greeting you at the door with happy wiggles after a long day. Picture us running together in the yard, playing fetch, or curling up on the couch after a fun adventure. I’ll be your partner in joy, your comfort in tough times, and your reminder that life is better with a dog by your side.

Final Tail Wags

I may have had a few twists and turns in my journey, but I believe every step has led me closer to you. My heart is open, my paws are ready, and my spirit is full of hope. I’m Layla, and I’m waiting for the day I get to run into the arms of my forever family.

How to Meet Me ✨

I’m staying with Central Arizona Animal Rescue until I find my forever family. If you think we’re meant to be, please email mike@caaronline.org to set up an appointment. I can’t wait to meet you, show you my playful spirit, and prove that I’m the perfect addition to your life.
