Story

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.

Story

Are you looking at my ears? WHAT MY FOSTER SAYS ABOUT ME: Hello! My name is Shiva, and I'm happy to be here and tell you a bit about me. I was brought into another welfare organization in Washington, DC, in July 2023 by nice animal control officers after I was found wandering the streets. I was underweight and had a skin condition, but the vets there nursed me back to health. I'm now a healthy 45 pounds, very energetic, and getting used to trusting humans again. I have been in foster and have grown a lot in my time out of the shelter. I am still quite shy at first, but after getting to know people, I really open up and show my very loving, playful and goofy personality. While I am an adult lady, I have a lot of energy, am silly and playful at times, and LOVE the outdoors. I light up on walks, especially in the park, and love running around and being playful with my foster mom. If you have a nice yard that I can run and play in, I would love that! I also love nice long walks where you can be patient with me as I sniff (a lot). Because of my past, I am scared by sudden, loud noises, so I would really prefer a quiet home, perhaps outside the city so there are fewer sirens and other loud noises. I may be ok with other dogs, but my foster mom thinks I might prefer to be queen of my own castle. I currently live with two adult male cats. My energy and playfulness is not always well-received by them, but I don't show any aggression towards them, just playfulness. A home with cats may work for me, but my new family would have to be willing to go slow with introductions. I am a true love, who is looking for a soft place to land after a rough go of it. Once you earn my trust, I will be very loving and loyal. I'd love to be with a forever family that loves me for all I am and treats me like a princess. ATTRIBUTES: Shiva has lived in foster with cats and done well. -------------- Laila's Legacy Animal Rescue does not guarantee that any dog is housebroken nor crate trained.
