About Lainey

Lainey is a happy, loving girl with plenty of charm and eagerness to be part of a lively home. Just 10 months old, Lainey is fully house-trained—reliably using a doggie door and handling her potty breaks like a pro. She enjoys walks and waits patiently at the door for her harness. Runs are fun for her, but she's still a bit spooked by nighttime bikes with bright lights. Hopping into the SUV is second nature; this dog is always ready for a hike or road trip. Lainey thrives with both people and other dogs. She gets along exceptionally well with her foster sibling (even one who usually prefers to avoid others), and a friendly canine companion in the home is a must for her happiness. She’s playful, social, and highly affectionate. Cats are untested, and she does have a noticeable prey drive, so small animals could trigger her chase instinct. Still, she's picking up the "leave it" command quickly. Time alone isn’t easy on Lainey—she really shines with company and shouldn't be left for long stretches. Crate time stresses her out, so a household that doesn’t rely on crating is best. She needs a secure, fenced yard and a family that works from home or spends lots of time around the house. Like most puppies, she’ll chew and needs both suitable toys and patient guidance. Lainey’s perfect fit is an attentive, loving home prepared for her youthful energy and affectionate nature. She’ll reward that with loyalty, fun, and plenty of love. Your new best friend is just one click away.
