Meet gorgeous Layla, who is looking for a new home through absolutely no fault of her own.
Sadly, Layla was sold to a home that already had another female, senior dog.
Unfortunately, the resident dog became aggressive towards Layla, so we are looking for a home where she can be the only dog.
After Layla's experience with the dog she lived with we feel she would benefit from having her own space, time to settle in and the opportunity to relax without the pressure of sharing her home with another dog. This may change as she matures, but for now, a single-dog home is what we feel is best for her.
There is plenty to love about Layla! She walks well on the lead, knows her sit and drop commands, is toilet trained, uses a doggie door, loves travelling in the car and, best of all, enjoys a good cuddle.
Layla is currently in foster care, but as she is still so young, we'd love to see her settled into a loving forever home where she can enjoy the stability and security every young dog deserves.
Her new owner will need to be prepared to continue her training, particularly around impulse control. Layla can get very excited and still has a tendency to jump up on people, so she isn't suited to a home with young children.
A professional behaviourist has assessed Layla and show the technique to stop this behaviour; we will do this again with the new owner.
With some consistency, patience and ongoing training, she has plenty of potential to mature into a lovely companion.
Could Layla be the girl you've been looking for?
If you think you can offer Layla a good forever home where you’ll be able to give her all of the above, in return she will give you all the love and loyalty you could ask for!

Introducing the stunning Layla, a pedigree Staffordshire Bull Terrier with a heart full of love and joy. Born on January 10th, 2025, this young beauty is more than ready to find her new family. Layla has been through a difficult situation, which is why she needs a home where she can be the sole canine star. Despite some challenges, Layla has shown herself to be a smart and adaptable pup. She's mastered walking gracefully on a lead, knows her sit and drop commands, and is trained to use a doggie door like a pro. Whether it's hopping in the car for a road trip or indulging in some quality cuddle time, Layla is always eager to join in.
Although Layla is not yet tested with cats, she thrives as the only pet and is ideally suited for a home with teens rather than younger children. Her training will need to continue, especially in impulse control, as she can get quite excited and occasionally jump up to express her joy. A professional behaviorist has demonstrated techniques to curb this behavior, and with your patience and dedication, Layla is sure to blossom into a loyal and well-mannered companion.
Layla is seeking a home filled with consistency and love, where she can enjoy the stability that every young dog deserves. For anyone ready to open their heart and home to this affectionate sweetheart, Layla promises a lifetime of loyalty and companionship. If you think you can provide Layla with the warm and secure environment she needs, visit Stafford Rescue Victoria for more information on adoption and to complete an application. Your adventure with Layla awaits!
