About Darla

Darla is a 10-month-old mix of Anatolian Shepherd and Black Mouth Cur, weighing around 65 lbs. She's a gentle soul, great with cats, dogs, and kids, making her an ideal family companion. While she is still filling out and may gain another 10 to 15 lbs, she’s already a lovely presence in any household. Darla sleeps well at night and is housebroken; she’s amenable to a crate if needed, though she seems to prefer having freedom. Medium in energy, Darla enjoys toys and is content to entertain herself if her canine friends aren't in the mood to play. She has excellent recall, which is impressive for a dog of her breed. A fenced yard would suit her well, but she also loves taking strolls to meet her neighbors. This friendly girl is ready to spread her joy beyond just one home—she's truly too awesome to keep all to yourself! What are you waiting for? Apply today!
