Leela was a puppy named Sapphire from the Gems litter 5 years ago. Her adoptive family's circumstances changed and she was surrendered back to RO to find a new, forever home. She's a black mouth cur and Lab mix, fully grown at 40 lbs. Leela gets along with other dogs and dog-savvy cats. She's not compatible with smaller children who may move quickly or run up into her face. She can be a little protective of food and needs to be fed separately from other dogs to feel secure.

She would like lots of activity and someone who is around most of the time. Curs are hunting dogs and also very attached to their owners, as are Labs. She absolutely LOVES playing ball! She's good on leash and would make a great walking and hiking companion with a little conditioning. She's very loving once she knows you and definitely enjoys cuddles.
