Lana

My story

Meet Lana — Your Future Best Friend Are you looking for a loyal, goofy, and affectionate gal to share your life with? Then allow us to introduce Lana, a 10-year-old bulldog mix with a heart full of love and a gentle soul that will absolutely steal yours. At around 40 lbs, Lana may be considered a senior, but don’t let her age fool you — she’s still got plenty of pep in her step and personality to spare. Lana came to us as a stray from a GTA shelter, and while she was a little shy at first, she’s blossomed beautifully in foster care. Her sweet, silly nature shines through more every day — and yes, she’s a total cuddle bug! Lana’s favorite things in life? Belly rubs, kisses, cuddles, and car rides. She LOVES car rides. She’ll also happily play fetch or tug-of-war with a rope toy, then curl up with you for a well-earned nap. At night, she’ll happily snooze right beside you, making sure you both sleep soundly knowing you're not alone. She’s currently living with other dogs and gets along well with her foster siblings, but deep down, we think she’d thrive as the center of someone’s world. When she meets new people, she greets them with her signature “woo-woo” and a happy tail wag — truly, she’s never met a stranger. Health & Special Notes For a gal her age, Lana is doing great! She has some hearing loss, so her foster uses hand signals and gentle touches for communication. Her eyesight is still good, though she has some decreased peripheral vision, especially at night. She has the beginning signs of arthritis in her spine, but currently doesn’t require medication — just no stairs or high jumps, and frequent short walks to keep her moving comfortably. She’s currently on a joint-supportive diet (Hills Metabolic with some wet food topper) and gets daily glucosamine, fish oil, and collagen supplements to keep her feeling her best. Lana’s Stats Good with dogs: Yes Good with kids: Yes Good with strangers: Yes — she’s a total charmer Good with cats: Unknown Housetrained: Yes, though she goes out frequently Crate trained: No, but doesn’t need to be — she’s not destructive and sleeps peacefully when alone Resource guarding: None observed Car rides: Absolutely loves them Energy level: Low to medium — she still enjoys playtime! Leash skills: Excellent — and she enjoys stopping to “smell the roses”  The Perfect Home for Lana Lana would be happiest in a calm, loving home where she can be someone’s one-and-only companion (or share space with friendly dogs). She’ll follow you from room to room, lay at your feet, and remind you every day how special it is to be loved unconditionally. If you’re looking for a gentle, goofy, loyal best friend who’s already house-trained, past the puppy chaos, and full of love to give, Lana might be the perfect match for you.       October 16, 2025, 7:46 pm
