Leela

My story

Leela has been with me for the last 1.5yrs and has been an incredibly loyal and loving companion. I adopted her at about 10 months old after she was found wandering the CA desert with her sisters. She’s 50% Belgian Malinois, 25% Bulldog, and 25% Staffordshire Terrier. Since PCSing from Southern California, she hasn’t adjusted well to downtown Annapolis, but she’s been thriving at my aunt’s farm in western Virginia where she started spending more time. Leela would do best in a home with land, consistent attention, and plenty of exercise. She’s very smart, athletic, and loves swimming, running, and hiking, though she doesn’t do great in heat due to her bulldog side. She gets along great with other dogs and has done well in daycare and boarding, and she’s been fine around farm animals. She has shown some resource guarding around me, but not with others and can be nervous (which I presume is from her puppy days). Overall, she’s a great dog who just needs to find a better environment

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Leela, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
