Story
Layla is a wonderful foster dog with a huge personality, tons of energy, and a serious love for adventure! She is happiest when she’s running, exploring, playing, and enjoying life alongside her people and canine friends.Her origin shows that although she was a stray and had been abandoned, it turns out she got lucky one day when a wonderful man found her and took her into his home - He noticed she had some issues meeting dogs and needed some help with her energy levels, so he personally paid for her to go two weeks of training at Champion Farm in Memphis - a wonderful spot for dogs to learn how to be dogs. She graduated with flying colors!!And while Layla loves adventures, she is equally affectionate and people-oriented....sooo friendly with adults, loves children, and enjoys being part of whatever her people are doing.Layla is leash-trained and off-leash trained, loves being outdoors, and has the energy to keep up with an active lifestyle. She loves running and playing with big packs of dogs, so she would love a home with a confident canine companion or multiple dogs who enjoy an active playmate.Layla currently lives with other dogs - it does take proper introductions for her to meet new dogs. It's not super complicated, but you must go slow and let her and the other dogs adjust to each other before throwing them in a yard to play. We can provide guidance with this.She’s also a great travel buddy and absolutely loves car rides. If you’re someone who likes taking your dog along for hikes, adventures or outings, Layla would be thrilled to come along!This beautiful girl thrives when she has a job to do, somewhere to go, dogs to play with, and people who want her right there beside them. She isn't looking for a sedentary lifestyle — she’s looking for a family that wants an energetic, social, fun-loving energetic buddy and who will consistently provide substantial exercise, opportunities to run and explore, socialization, and mental stimulation.If you’re an active household looking for a dog who is ready to do any enjoyable activity and then come hang out with her people, Layla may be your gal!All known information about the animal is listed above.
