Meet Layla, a beautiful 4-year-old Doberman who made her way to us all the way from New Mexico, thanks to Pilots and Paws! Layla is spayed, fully vetted, and ready to find her forever home. She's a bit on the shy side, but as we get to know her, we're discovering just how sweet and gentle she can be. Layla has a prey drive, so she'll need a home that understands her instincts. Layla has a great recall. She does well with other dogs, but slow and careful introductions are key to helping her feel comfortable. If you're looking for a loyal companion who just needs a little time to warm up, Layla could be the perfect addition to your family! Crate and housetrained already, this girl will be easy to introduce into your home! When Layla was first rescued she was severely emaciated (see picture) and in rough shape physically. Today she is the healthy version of herself thanks to many rescuers who cared. She was so very much worth saving from the streets near the Mexican border. She is such a happy girl, so smart and willing to be the best girl she can for her people. Adopt her and find out for yourself!
