Lyra - Mixed Breed and Pit Bull Terrier Dog for Adoption in York, Pennsylvania

Lyra may have been found as a stray, but we have a feeling this girl has a little cowgirl spirit in her! With a microchip traced all the way back to Dallas, Texas, we'd love to imagine she's just been waiting for her next big adventure. When Lyra first arrived at the shelter, she was absolutely terrified. But with a little patience and a lot of kindness, her true personality came bursting through. Now this just-over-a-year-old pup is a playful, goofy girl who loves racing around the yard, tossing her toys, and soaking up every bit of love and attention she can get. Lyra can be a little reserved when meeting new people, especially men, but give her a little time and she'll happily let you into her circle. Once you've earned her trust, you'll discover a fun-loving companion who's always ready to play and make you smile. This isn't Lyra's first time searching for a family, and we'd love for it to be her last. She's ready to trade shelter life for a home filled with patience, commitment, and plenty of adventures. If you're looking for a sweet young dog with a playful heart and a story that's just waiting for a happy ending, Lyra is ready to meet you.
