My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Leia! This sweet, sensitive girl came to the Shelter after her previous guardian was unable to continue caring for her. She had lived in a home with a maltipoo and a family previously, including teenagers. When Leia meets new people, she tends to move away and avoid interaction. After a while, she warms up. The way to Leia’s heart is through play with dogs. She is a playgroup regular and enjoys romping around with other pups. A home with a resident dog is required to help Leia transition into her new home and provide a canine friend to help show her the world is not so scary. She is house and crate trained. Leia’s favorite activities in her previous home are walking, running and playing. Her favorite toys are balls. When riding in the car, Leia likes to look outside and watch the world go by. Leia is looking for a home with a resident canine companion that she can be BFFs with. If your pup is looking for a friend – look no further than Leia!
