Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Laya is full of spunk, energy, and is ready for the adventure of a lifetime with a family of her very own. After being found abandoned on the side of the road, Laya came to Furry Friends in the search of a forever family. While she has been here she has enjoyed working one on one with the staff, making tons of new friends, and learning new skills to help deal with the anxieties of the world around her. Her new home better be ready for tons of fun and laughs, and we are recommending her go to a home with experienced dog owners. She loves people but loves toys and playtime even more. Our staff has spent the entire 3 years she has been here training her each day to help her understand walking on a leash, how to interact when other animals are around, and how not to yell at the mail man (although she hasn't picked that one up just yet). Fill out an application for our spunky girl to meet with her!
