Meet Layla
Layla's personality is so humorous, she will talk to you when you are about to feed her, when she wants something or when you tell her no. She just loves and adores the company of people. She will greet you with much excitement initially, this includes trying to give you a big kiss on the face, but she is learning that is not ok although once she gets her kiss she is happy to just be next to you. She is fully house trained.
I have had many people over in 'her backyard' adults and kids alike all find her to be a very well behaved and affectionate dog.
She will even sit around patiently unperturbed by the smell of steak on the BBQ. Does not jump up to the table when you eat outside, nor does she hassle or beg you to share.
She knows when enough is enough, she will listen when it's time to just lay next to your feet. A highly energetic dog, only in bursts, Lazy in others!
She needs a walk every day or two or she just looks so sad. When not walking she is happy to just lounge about the back yard and get a pat from you.
She will chew on her toys or odd bits left in the yard, but never anything of value. She has made a dash with my thongs left at the back door so I'd say shoes are considered 'her toys'. Does not dig or bother my garden.
Out for walks she likes to go off lead when at the park, I always have her on lead walking around the street. She never goes too far that she can't see you. She always wants to know you're nearby.
Even at the dog park where she can run free with other dogs, she will play with them for a while but check back with me often.
An absolute delight to have. Not suitable to little children however, only because of her size and need to be close to people, she could bowl them over unintentionally.
