Story
Rosey is looking for their forever home! WHAT MY FOSTER SAYS: Rosey is the ultimate player who is happy to engage with any playmate, regardless of their size. An pup on the go, Rosey will thrive in an active home. Looking for a hiking partner? Weekend warrior? Or, even just the daily neighborhood patrol? Rosey may be the puppy for you! Rosey's boundless enthusiasm is endearing and admirable. She has a striking white diamond/star patch on her chest and the cutest overbite. While she's always up for a game of fetch, tug-of-war, or a good old-fashioned wrestling match, at the end of the night or when she's worn herself out, she's happy to cuddle up in your lap. Rosey makes the cutest little grunting sounds - she's the perfect little piglet and will be sure to keep you laughing. She would also be a great fit for first time dog owners given her balance of independence with affection seeking, and her general comfort in new environments and the big world! Rosey also loves butt scritches, an adorable attribute for such a young pup. If you're looking for a playful pal, Rosey may be a great match! She's smart, curious, and always ready for an adventure. -------------- Laila's Legacy Animal Rescue does not guarantee that any dog is housebroken nor crate trained.

Story
Tim is looking for their forever home! WHAT MY FOSTER SAYS: Tim is the biggest love bug who is super excited to do anything his family is doing. From going on long walks to cuddling on the couch. This pocket sized pup is the perfect house hippo! He has phenomenal leash manners and is easily redirected when needed. Tim loves to go on walks with his favorite stuffed animal (too cute!). We think he will do very well in a variety of space sizes (apartment folks!) because he is so quiet in the house and has zero complaints. He is a happy camper in the crate where he naps & sleeps through the night. Tim quickly goes to the bathroom when he is taken outside. He doesn't seem to mind water and was a good sport when we gave him a bath. He is the best in the car - just happy to be on an adventure or take a nap before arriving at your destination. If you are looking for a loving, medium energy pup, Tim can be your perfect match! ATTRIBUTES: Tim has done well with dogs. -------------- Laila's Legacy Animal Rescue does not guarantee that any dog is housebroken nor crate trained.

Story
Ralphy is looking for their forever home! WHAT MY FOSTER SAYS: This affectionate, goofy, and sweet-natured pup is always ready to greet you with enthusiasm and love. Despite his larger size, Ralphy has a soft spot for cuddling and often considers himself a lap dog. If you're looking for a loyal companion who loves snuggles, Ralphy might just be your perfect match. His playful nature and quirky sense of humor will keep you smiling, while his easygoing temperament ensures he gets along with everyone, human or furry. Ralphy is happiest when he's playing with his favorite toys-pink stuffies and tennis balls-or enjoying his daily walks, where sniffing everything in sight is a must! Though he's a calm couch potato at heart, he needs at least two sniff-filled walks a day to burn off his energy. Ralphy also gets along well with other dogs his size, happily disengaging with a "leave it cue when asked. And don't worry about accidents-this house-trained champ will let you know when he needs to go outside. Ralphy's intelligence shines through in the variety of commands he already knows, including sit, come, wait for me, find it, and leave it. He's also a great communicator-he'll give you a little nose "boop" when he needs something! His love of food makes him a quick learner, and he's been thriving on training walks with his foster mom, even earning praise from a professional trainer for his excellent leash manners. Recently, he's even started picking up his leash and bringing it to his foster mom-talk about a clever boy! One of Ralphy's favorite pastimes on walks is sniffing around and occasionally rolling in the grass (which, of course, only adds to his charm). He's crate-trained and often goes to his crate on his own when he's ready for some quiet time. This independent streak shows how much his confidence has grown, especially in new environments. Once he settles in, Ralphy's cheerful, laid-back personality shines through, making him a constant source of joy and comfort. Ralphy has a special way of winning over everyone he meets. He's a gentle soul, great with children, and greets guests with a warm welcome-though he's still working on his excitement-jumping. He loves meeting new people and always "leans in" for extra affection, showing just how much he adores human connection. Ralphy is ready to find his forever home! If you're looking for a calm, sweet, and loyal companion who will bring joy, love, and lots of laughs into your life, Ralphy is the dog for you. His big heart is just waiting to be shared with someone special-could that be you? ATTRIBUTES: Ralphy has done well with dogs his size and larger. -------------- Laila's Legacy Animal Rescue does not guarantee that any dog is housebroken nor crate trained.

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!
