Story
Hello! Sky is a 5 year old Staffy/German Shepard Mix. She was found in DC at 2 years old on the streets, from which we adopted her. In the three years since, she has become a very loved and very smart dog. She is very attached to her red ball seen in the pictures. It was a quick amazon find, but it's become her pacifier. It is her favorite toy of all three years. She is very smart. She knows all types of tricks "Lay Down", "Sit", "Stay", "Look At Me", "Roll Over", "Drop it" and a few more. She is very athletic. She can jump and leap. She can run and walk. She's gone on runs of up to 8 miles with me, she is the perfect running companion. She is dog reactive, but when using a gentle leader, the reactions are quite muted. She could also be socialized better, given the right circumstances. She is very loving. When she is not playing, she is cuddling. She absolutely loves to cuddle and be at your side.

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
Rosie was dropped off into this fosters neighborhood and left to fend for herself after obviously having puppies. She went door to door asking to be let in — it was January and rainy and this indoor girl was beside herself. After 10 days begging for help, she found the right neighbor who gave me a call and I brought her into my foster home. She had terrible skin allergies and was oh so hungry! For months she stared at trucks and on walks sat next to trucks — likely hoping it was her people’s truck and surely they were coming back for her. That was Jan ‘23. Flash forward to now, she is a solid 85# and allergies controlled, fur is gorgeous, and she loooooooooves everyone she meets ESPECIALLY men!!! She gets a daily walk and has become a neighborhood celebrity knowing everybody! Lawnmowing guys, city service trucks, linemen, neighbors…. literally stop what they are doing to come give her some petting and a happy hello! A lonnnng roll in the grass is required before walks are complete. She happily wears her raincoat on rainy days and winter coat in the cold months. Rosie has perfect housemanners and asks for very little. She needs to be the only pet in the house though, preferring to be Queen of her kingdom. She requires monthly meds for allergies. Her mast cell tumor was removed with all margins clear, and her Lymes disease treated. She loves car rides and going into stores and meeting everyone she can. A home where she can be Queen is her dream and mine. A busy foster home that requires her to be kept separated is not the ideal place for this social butterfly.

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! Please check out Vivienne's video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7WlvkoGjizw -------------- Laila's Legacy Animal Rescue does not guarantee that any dog is housebroken nor crate trained.

To learn more about our upcoming events and to see which event he will be attending, please visit our event page at https://www.lostdogrescue.org/events/ (*please note that the specific event pages are typically updated on Fridays with information on which dogs will be attending which events*) Hi! I'm King. I am loving, loyal, and - ok, you made me say it - very handsome. Oh, and did I mention that I am looking for a best friend to adopt me? I like leash walks, especially in calm and quiet spaces where we can spend some quality time together without the crowds. But, I may get distracted by all of the wonderful smells because I really do need to put my nose on everything to explore the wonders of the world. Not only am I curious, I am up for a challenge! I like to run across streams, jump on logs, and hike the trails. I have lots of energy so will be sure to help keep up with your exercise plan. I even like to get in a jog from time to time. And, not to brag, but I am pretty smart. But, for the sake of all those delicious treats, I will pretend that it takes me time to master new tricks and skills. One more thing to tell you. I like to talk when I play. I hope you will come to meet me so we can play together forever, just you and me!
