About Lita

Lita is a sweet ten-month-old girl looking for her forever home. This adorable Lab/Beagle mix weighs around 25 pounds and is full of energy and enthusiasm for life. She gets along well with other dogs, making her a great companion for a home with a resident pup. Since Lita is transitioning from her previous life in Puerto Rico, she needs a family committed to helping her adjust and socialize. She thrives in an environment where her humans can introduce her to new experiences at her own pace. Lita dreams of snuggling up in a warm dog bed, exploring the world during walks, and being a cherished member of a loving family. If you’re ready to shower her with affection and adventures, she might just be the one for you! Lita is currently staying in a foster home in the DC area, and while she is working on her crate training, her latest status on housebreaking is not guaranteed. To give Lita the home she deserves, apply today!
