Story

Gaia is now 3 years old. I bought her from a designer dog pet store in Virginia. She originally costed me $15,000. Her lineage is purebred. Both parents were show dogs in Russia. She is always being complimented on how beautiful and majestic she is! Also, quite popular on social media. I travel for work and my schedule is becoming a bit too busy for me to give her the upmost care. It breaks my heart but I know it’s best for her to be rehomed. I would love to work something out where I can still visit her from time to time. She’s been my ESA for a while is probably the friendliest dog in the world! Loves kids, loves other dogs. She is not spayed but not completely opposed. I always wanted her to have puppies. Would love to find someone ASAP! I am willing to negotiate a price.

Hi! My name is Frankie and I’m a 4 month old pitbull puppy and I lived most of my life in a small tiny cage until my foster mom came to rescue me! I was so sad and now I’m having the best time of my life! I love to play, give kisses, cuddles and play some more! I love other dogs and I love cats too! I love to go walk walks and I love the beach. I haven’t gone hiking yet but I think that will be one of my favorite things to do. Can I be apart of your life forever!? I live in VA beach and will drive to get Frankie to his forever home.

Mixed Breed (Medium) Terrier (Unknown Type, Medium)

Female, Adult

Washington, DC

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Meet Chelsea! She came to Laila's Legacy from a local shelter, where she was a team favorite. Not only was she the sweetest pup, easy on leash, but also their go to dog tester for their big dogs! WHAT MY FOSTER SAYS ABOUT ME: When Chelsea arrived she spent the first few weeks/months living in foster and *loved* her foster brother. He might have been much bigger than he was but that didn't stop them from rough-housing! Chelsea loves to soak up the attention from the adults in the home, and as a result prefers not to have too many guests or other people in the home to take away from that attention! Laila's Legacy put Chelsea through a full training program to help her learn to navigate life, build confidence, and seek direction from her humans. ATTRIBUTES: Chelsea does well with dogs, but should not go to a home with cats due to her prey drive or with kids as they are overwhelming to her. -------------- Laila's Legacy Animal Rescue does not guarantee that any dog is housebroken nor crate trained.

Story

Forest is looking for an adopter who loves em' sweet as pie (or cake). WHAT MY FOSTER SAYS ABOUT ME: Forest (formerly known as Black Forest Cake) stops everyone in their tracks with his striking looks. But that's not all, he is also calm, gentle, poised, and oh so friendly. His ideal day would consistent of car rides with the windows down, sun bathing, and playing with his canine companions. His smile lights up the room and he is sure to make you smile too! Forest is happy to entertain himself by tossing his toys in the air and then hopping around to catch them. He's happy to entertain himself and anyone else who is around to watch him play! This goofy boy is described by other humans as a happy, snuggly pup who will brighten their day. Forest's favorite way to spend his day includes chewing on a bone or playing with a new toy and then cuddling up with his human and doggie friends for some quality time on the couch. He's a great snuggler and has never heard of "personal space". He'll cuddle up to his people and rest his head on you while he naps. ATTRIBUTES: Forest is currently in foster with dogs and has been exposed to cats though hasn't been integrated with cats to date. -------------- Laila's Legacy Animal Rescue does not guarantee that any dog is housebroken nor crate trained.
