Story
Lainey is a sweet, approximately 1-year-old mix in search of her forever home. She weighs around 40 lbs and is ready to gain a few more pounds with some extra love at mealtime. As a puppy, Lainey had a rough start and didn’t get much socialization, which made her a little shy at first. Since coming into foster care, she has learned to trust people and has found comfort playing with other dogs. She ignores cats. She would lovea home with canine companions. With patience, treats, and lots of TLC, Lainey is blossoming into a confident and affectionate girl. Lainey is crate-trained, keeps her space clean, and enjoys exploring on leash walks. She’s curious, playful, and loves discovering the world around her.
