Description:
Meet Layla! She just might be the sweetest girl you'll ever meet! Although she came from a shelter, it seems she was once a loved house dog. She has settled in so nicely & so fast. She loves people & loves to be petted & fawned on, and she is so silky soft that you won't want to keep your hands off of her! Layla will lay on the couch with you all day! She is housebroken & crate trained, and doesn't chew anything in the house. She knows the difference between 'dog toys' and 'not dog toys'. She seems to prefer the hard rubber toys, like kongs, rather than the plushies. She came to us with what looks like a previously broken or dislocated ankle that wasn't treated & didn't heal well. She walks on it & can go up & down the stairs just fine, but she doesn't run on it, so she runs like a tripod dog. Overall she gets along fine with it & it doesn't slow her down or affect her playfulness. More info to come after it gets evaluated by a vet to see if it is best to treat it, or leave it alone.
Layla would be the perfect first-time dog for any family! She is just so easy & so sweet!
UPDATE...The vet x-rayed her ankle & there isn't really anything to be done with it. He thinks that she was most likely hit by a car about 6 months ago & her ankle was broken & dislocated. Makes sense with the scarring that she also has on that knee & the scarred scratches on that thigh. There has already been so much calcification in the joint, that it is pretty much completely sclerotic & the joint is now fused. It does not bend at all. Not much point in surgery, since they would shave the bone, realign the joint, then re-fuse it with metal parts. We don't think it's causing her pain on a regular basis. She doesn't whine, flinch, or growl, when you touch it. And she does walk on it. But, she can over do it at times, so he suggested pain management for those incidents with something like Tramadol. Even with her bum leg, she's a pretty happy & active pup! She's not going to let it keep her down! Last Day Dog Rescue now microchips all dogs before adoption. AVID Microchips are implanted between the dog's shoulder blades and are a permanent form of identification. The microchips are registered to Last Day Dog Rescue with the adopter's info added once adopted. If the dog is ever lost and slips his/her collar/tags the microchip allows the finder to know who to contact if scanned for a microchip. Dogs MUST still have a collar with tags on at all times. Per our contract, we take all our dogs back if for any reason you can't keep your adopted dog. The petfinder.com system requires that we choose a predominant breed or breed mix for our dogs. Visual breed identification in dogs is unreliable so for most of the dogs we are only guessing at predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each dog as an individual and will do our best to describe each of our dogs based on personality, not by breed label. Last Day Dog Rescue now microchips all animals before adoption.
