Story
Melo is almost 7 years old. We got him from the shelter when he was 3. He likes to run, he likes to chill on the sofa and he his great with other dogs and kids hence his name. Unfortunately our first dog is facing significant medical challenges and we cannot afford to have both dogs. We also haven’t been able to give him the time and attention we know he needs. He has no behavioral problems and is a very affectionate dog. Please help us rehome so we don’t have to surrender him.

Story
We welcomed Chloe into our home when she was just 8 weeks old, bonding instantly with her from a neighbor’s litter. Now in her energetic teenage phase, Chloe is well-trained and well-mannered, having worked with a trainer weekly. Chloe would make a fantastic addition to any family, particularly one that is active or has another playful dog. We believe she would thrive in a household with children, as she is incredibly sweet and loving. She also does pretty well with the cat! Despite our love for Chloe, we feel it’s best to find her a new home where she can truly flourish. Our current space is too limited for her, and our schedules make it difficult to provide her with the necessary outlets for her energy. We are confident that Chloe will bring joy and companionship to her new family, and we are committed to finding the perfect match for her.

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!

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
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!
