About Leia

Meet Leia! This lively young dog is a 1.5-year-old, 70-pound medium mix with a splash of husky spirit. She’s spayed, vaccinated, house trained, crate trained, leash trained, and ready to charm her way into your heart. Leia has a joyful obsession with water. Whether it’s sprinklers, hoses, or wading pools, she’s in her element. Think of her as an aquatic adventurer, ready to make a splash! This high-energy girl treats playtime as a lifestyle. Among her favorite activities are poking humans with toys to initiate fun, kicking around a soccer ball, and pausing mid-walk to ponder life’s mysteries. Leia is sweet, dramatic, and a bit mouthy—more of an expressive chatter than anything else. Though she adores people, dogs, and is open to meeting cats, her best matches are older kids who can appreciate her vibrant personality. She has a slight limp from a childhood injury, but it absolutely doesn’t hold her back. Leia can still outrun your entire neighborhood! She sleeps peacefully in her crate and is great in the car once she makes the hop inside. Currently living her best life in Zuni, VA, Leia is able to travel for adoption to the perfect home, though transport fees may apply. If you’re seeking a fun, affectionate, water-loving companion, Leia is your girl!
