Hell o! My name is Leia. I am approximately 2 years old and was found as a stray in Norfolk, VA. My foster mom was told about me, and helped me to leave the shelter. Not much is known about my history, due to being a stray. I am nervous around men, and become very terrified when corrected by a man. I currently live with my foster parents, their male dog, and 3 cats, one is a kitten. 

I am eager to please, and I am currently learning commands. I have learned sit and know that pretty good! I will continue to work on learning new commands, and hopefully will be good on some others soon. I recently became house trained, so a schedule works best for me to keep me good. I love to play, and cuddle. While I do get along with other dogs, I do have some toy aggression. I also like bigger dogs that are my size. I don't like little dogs all that much. Will I work for your home? I would do best in a home where there is another dog. If you need any more information, just ask!
