About Xola
Meet Xola! This sweet girl is searching for a patient adopter who understands that trust takes time. She came to the Animal Care Centers of NYC when her owner could no longer care for her, and now she's living in a pop-up crate until she finds her forever home. Xola thrives on attention, treats, and quality time with her favorite people once she feels safe and secure. Ideal for an experienced adopter, Xola will flourish in a calm environment where positive reinforcement training is encouraged. She needs slow introductions to new experiences and must be around those who can read her body language. Although Xola has lived with dogs and can be playful with familiar friends, she may feel uncertain around new dogs and requires gentle introductions. Due to her previous challenges with unfamiliar people, Xola would do best in an adult-only home. It’s important to respect her boundaries and allow her to adjust at her own pace. This smart and spirited pup is learning that the world isn't as daunting as it seems. With patience and support, she'll blossom even more. Xola is also working on her manners and leash skills, so her future family needs to be prepared to guide her with encouragement. Xola's primary color is black with hints of white. Weighing 47.4 lbs and 2 years old, she's ready to find a home where she can truly shine. This could be the start of something paw-some.
