Weight: 33 lbs
Vet Record: 100% vaccinated, spayed, microchipped, female

Looking for a dog that can live happily with cats? Lira may be your girl.

Some dogs tolerate cats. Lira actually loves them. She currently lives in a foster home with another dog and four cats, including kittens, and she does beautifully with all of them. She loves playing with cats, is friendly with other dogs, and would be especially happy in a home with animal companions.

Lira is gentle and shy. She needs time to adjust to a new place and new people. She does not rush into new friendships, but once she feels comfortable, she becomes very affectionate and loyal. Lira has never shown any signs of aggression. When she feels unsure, she simply walks away.

Lira is house-trained, and she walks well on a leash. She is playful with dogs, but at home, she is calm and quiet. A suburban home with a fenced yard would be the best fit for her.

If you have a friendly dog or cat and are looking for a gentle, animal-loving companion, Lira may be a wonderful match!

Note: Sochi Dogs Rescue works on a foster-to-adopt model. All of our adopters have a 1-week trial period to decide if the dog is the right match for you. Should you decide the adoption is not working out, you can notify us within the first week, and we will coordinate a time to take the dog back into a foster home and issue a refund of the adoption fee minus $75
