About Leia

Leia is a gentle soul who's still finding her way after being rescued from a hoarding situation where over 40 dogs lived. At just 13 lbs, she's a small, shy girl who will need some time to adjust in a new home. Though she's a bit under-socialized, there's a lot to learn about her now that she’s in a foster home. Patience and understanding will help her thrive as she learns to trust. She’s already spayed and up-to-date on vaccinations, making her a great candidate for adoption. If you're looking for a quiet companion who needs a little extra love, Leia could be the perfect fit. Click apply to start the adoption process.
