My story

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

Meet Leia, a stunning 2-3-year-old pup with a heart full of love and a spirit of adventure. Although Leia may initially growl at new dogs, it's important to understand that her behavior stems from fear and protectiveness rather than aggression. Once a slow and proper introduction is completed, Leia's true nature shines through, and she gets along famously with her furry friends. It's truly heartwarming to witness her transformation as she becomes more comfortable around other dogs.

Once Leia has formed a bond with her canine companions, she is an absolute sweetheart. Her friendly and responsive nature makes her a joy to be around, and she thrives on the love and attention of her humans. Leia is quick to form a strong bond with her people, making her an incredibly loyal and devoted companion.

While we haven't had the opportunity to test Leia's compatibility with young children, we believe she would do well with older kids who can understand and respect her boundaries. As always, any interactions with children should be closely supervised to ensure a harmonious and safe environment for everyone involved.

Leia has already conquered some important milestones in her training journey. She is kennel trained, allowing for a structured and secure space when needed. On walks, Leia impresses with her leash manners, walking well alongside other dogs. Her calm and composed demeanor on leash is a testament to her willingness to learn and adapt.

Currently fostered in MA, MA license #0092
