BIO:
Hi everyone, my name is Leigh and I'm a happy, houndy girl who's looking for my furever family! I am a sweet and loyal girl and I love to hang out with my people, preferably while being petted. I don't mean to brag, but I've already completed 2 beginner training classes, so when we do our required training class together, I'm sure to be the star! Plus, training is a great way for us to get to know each other and bond.
I can be a bit of a barker with new people or unfamiliar situations, so I'm looking for a confident or dog-savvy person who'll help me continue to practice staying cool when I'm unsure. Young kids are also pretty scary to me, so I'd do best with older children. My foster home has a fenced yard where I love to play fetch and do zoomies, but I don't need one as long as I get my two walks and some playtime every day. Puzzle toys and training are also great ways to keep my brain busy and tire me out! While it's fun to be busy, I also enjoy long naps and I'll even see myself to my crate when I've had enough.
I walk nicely on leash and can ignore most of those awful squirrels. A canine playmate may be great fun, let's meet first and see how it goes! I am also friendly with cats, as well. I have a sponsored adoption fee, which means that I'm just a few steps away from being yours. Head on over to that adoption application and I hope to hear from you soon!
Love and licks,
Leigh
If you'd like to adopt this dog, please get started by filling out a complete application (incomplete submissions cannot be sent.) Please note that while we take time to learn as much as we can about each dog in our care as possible, our bios are written from current observations. Though we do our best to share as much information as possible about each dog we care for, we are unable to make any guarantees on the future health or temperament of your adopted dog. Most dogs in our care come with unknown pre-rescue history, and information pertaining to breed and age are often educated guesses.
