OUT-OF-TOWN Dogs with NDR refer to dogs we have saved that have yet to make their journey to Ontario. These dogs are currently in our care with the help of our partners in the area. These dogs will all travel to the Niagara Region once an appropriate adopter or local foster is found.
This dog is currently located in: Georgia
Sweet Lyla’s story is one of resilience, love, and patiently waiting for the forever family she truly deserves. In the past year, Sweet Lyla has been adopted twice and, through absolutely no fault of her own, found herself back with her foster both times due to major life changes in her adopters’ circumstances. Even through those heartbreaking goodbyes, one thing has remained true: Sweet Lyla leaves a lasting impression on every single person she meets.
She is the definition of a love bug. Sit down on the floor and she’ll often wander over, gently resting her head on your shoulder for hugs like she’s known you forever. She adores people, loves being carried like a baby, and when she’s extra happy, she does the cutest little bunny hops that are impossible not to smile at. Sweet Lyla is also a social butterfly with dogs. She absolutely thrives around them and would do amazing in a home with playful pups, a busy dog household, or even doggy daycare. Tug-of-war is one of her favorite games, and she’s happy to romp around with dogs of all personalities and energy levels. In fact, she was our go-to “dog tester” at the kennel facility because she’s so bombproof and trustworthy with other dogs, even unsocialized ones. After playtime, though, she’s perfectly content curling up into a tiny little ball for a nap or snuggling beside you on the couch during movie time.
Sweet Lyla is compact, muscular, and pocket-sized. She’s a short queen built like a little bowling ball of love. Sweet Lyla is also a proud Hamilton Hounds prison program graduate in Florida, where she learned her basic obedience, new tricks, and how to be the very best girl. She already knows commands like sit, stay, place, and more. She’s incredibly smart, eager to please, and enjoys having structure and guidance from her people. All Sweet Lyla wants is a family who will finally be her forever. And once you meet her, it’s easy to understand why so many people have loved her so deeply.
