About Leana

Leana came into rescue under tough circumstances—thin, pregnant, heartworm positive, and abandoned. Once she made it to her foster home, she gave birth to nine healthy puppies, all of whom have found their families. Leana then underwent treatment for heartworm and is now spayed and vaccinated. She’s likely a Pit Bull/Beagle mix, about medium size, and absolutely brimming with personality. Her playful side comes out with Nylabones, toys, fetch, and daily walks. Leana enjoys the company of other dogs as long as they’re not dominant, and she hasn’t had issues seeing cats, though she hasn’t lived with them. She lights up especially around little kids—lots of kisses and tail wags. Leana is very smart, crate trained, and will bark when she needs to go outside. Her post-heartworm care means she’ll need Benazepril twice daily, which she takes easily in peanut butter. She’s healthy, vibrant, and ready for a fresh start in Clarksville, VA.
