Story
Vivienne (affectionally will be called Viv for short) is looking for an adopter or foster who's in need of a new work-out buddy/motivator. WHAT MY FOSTER SAYS ABOUT ME: Vivienne's motto is "Play hard, love hard!" This spirited girl thrives on fun and adventure, whether she's racing around with other dogs or enjoying quality playtime with her favorite humans. There's no adult, kid, or furry friend she can't get along with-more playmates mean more fun! Once she's had her fill of play, Vivienne transforms into the sweetest cuddle buddy, showering you with kisses and love. She's still adjusting to crate life, but she's learning that the quicker she settles down, the sooner she gets to reunite with her favorite human (that's you!). While she's figuring out that she's no longer puppy-sized and needs to greet you with a calmer excitement, she's making great strides with positive reinforcement training. Viv loves holding hands and being petted, although she's still working on overcoming her fear of nail clipping. With her playful antics and well-timed barks, she'll keep you entertained and make sure you're always the center of her world. If you're looking for a happy-go-lucky companion who will fill your days with joy and affection, Vivienne is the perfect match for you! Come meet this lovable bundle of energy and see just how much love she has to give! Please check out Vivienne's video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7WlvkoGjizw -------------- Laila's Legacy Animal Rescue does not guarantee that any dog is housebroken nor crate trained.

Story
Rosie was dropped off into this fosters neighborhood and left to fend for herself after obviously having puppies. She went door to door asking to be let in — it was January and rainy and this indoor girl was beside herself. After 10 days begging for help, she found the right neighbor who gave me a call and I brought her into my foster home. She had terrible skin allergies and was oh so hungry! For months she stared at trucks and on walks sat next to trucks — likely hoping it was her people’s truck and surely they were coming back for her. That was Jan ‘23. Flash forward to now, she is a solid 85# and allergies controlled, fur is gorgeous, and she loooooooooves everyone she meets ESPECIALLY men!!! She gets a daily walk and has become a neighborhood celebrity knowing everybody! Lawnmowing guys, city service trucks, linemen, neighbors…. literally stop what they are doing to come give her some petting and a happy hello! A lonnnng roll in the grass is required before walks are complete. She happily wears her raincoat on rainy days and winter coat in the cold months. Rosie has perfect housemanners and asks for very little. She needs to be the only pet in the house though, preferring to be Queen of her kingdom. She requires monthly meds for allergies. Her mast cell tumor was removed with all margins clear, and her Lymes disease treated. She loves car rides and going into stores and meeting everyone she can. A home where she can be Queen is her dream and mine. A busy foster home that requires her to be kept separated is not the ideal place for this social butterfly.

Kaiya

Female, Adult
Springfield, VA
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Kaiya is a 55-pound, 3.5 year old Staffordshire Terrier mix with a heart full of love and a serious talent for cuddling. She adores people and truly believes she’s a lap dog. She’ll happily curl up with you any chance she gets! Kaiya is fully house trained and has great manners indoors. She thrives on human connection and would make a wonderful companion for someone looking for a loyal, affectionate best friend. She is reactive with other dogs and animals, so she’ll need to be the only pet in the home. She is not great on a leash due to her reactivity, so someone with a yard and privacy fence is also ideal, but not necessary. She is used to being alone for upwards of 8 hours while we have been gone at work. Kaiya has some funny quirks like bunny hops, sploots, a love of crunchy vegetables, and is a great feet warmer!

Story
Meet Rocky – Your Gentle Old Soul At 13 years young, Rocky is the definition of a sweet old man. This medium-sized Staffordshire-Labrador mix has a heart as big as his adorable smile, and he’s looking for a loving home to spend his golden years. Rocky is mellow, affectionate, and easy to please. Whether he's curled up on a cozy blanket or quietly following you around the house, he simply loves being near his people. He’s a low-maintenance companion who’s past the puppy antics—just give him some love, some sun to nap in, and a treat or two, and he’s one happy boy. Despite his age, Rocky still enjoys gentle strolls and sniffing all the best spots on a walk. He gets along well with calm dogs and would thrive in a quiet home where he can relax and be cherished. He may have a few gray whiskers and move a bit slower these days, but Rocky’s heart is as warm and full of love as ever. He’s a loyal, gentle companion who deserves nothing more than a soft bed and a family to call his own. If you’ve got room in your heart (and your home) for one very good boy, come meet Rocky. He’s ready to love you for the rest of his days.
