About Kayla

Kayla is incredibly affectionate and has an abundance of love to share. This sweet, gentle girl is the total package: obedient, house-trained, crate-trained, leash-trained, and an absolute pro in the car. She knows her commands, has great recall, and sleeps soundly through the night, all while maintaining a low-to-medium energy level. Kayla is polite and easy to handle for her size. She patiently waits for her leash to be put on, seeks permission before jumping out of the car, takes treats gently, and enjoys being brushed. Her charming quirks will undoubtedly steal your heart—she carries her empty bowl to bed after eating, buries treats in her blankets, tilts her head back for neck scratches, and gently uses her paw to ask for attention. She may fit well with cats and can be dog-friendly with careful introductions. Management around high-value items is beneficial for her. Kayla seeks a loving home that will truly appreciate her uniqueness and return the affection she has to offer. Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
