About Leela ~ 4yr Old Mastiff X (On Trial 2/10/20)
The gorgeous Leela is ready to gaze at you with her one beautiful eye and make you fall in love. Leela is a 4yr Old female Mastiff X who is ready to be your most loyal friend. Leela loves to be close to you and will happily sleep on her bed most of the day if you are near.
Leela is gentle, calm and relaxed at home. She loves her walk and needs regular exercise. She is currently walked 30-45 minutes each day and spends time playing fetch in the yard - she loves the chasing part but isn't quite as good at bringing it back! She sometimes pulls on the lead when walking if she sees something she is excited about. She is not at all picky about what she eats. Leela was adopted by her current family with her eye already removed and is in great health. She is toilet trained and currently sleeps inside on her bed without waking through the night.
Leela is dog friendly and happily shares with a male dog in her current home, but she's not a fan of cats and would be best without any pocket pets. She can take a little while to warm up to new people but when she is comfortable, her sweet and loving nature kicks in and she will be your friend forever.
Leela's need to be with her people is so strong that when they are not at home she has been escaping from the yard. She digs under the fence and has jumped/climbed over in the past. Her owners have to be regularly away for long days for work and just want her to be safe. Due to this, her new forever home must have tall secure colourbond fencing of around 5-6ft with no holes or gaps. Rural fencing or mesh will not be suitable and not considered. Her new family must have very secure fences to keep her safe and stop her from going over or under.
Leela's ideal family would have someone home most of the time, families who are out for long hours of the day unfortunately wont be her perfect and most suitable home. This gorgeous girl is very gentle with young children however we will be placing preference with homes where children are 10 and older. Homes with previous breed experience will also be looked upon favourably.

Adoption details

(2) If the questionnaire is approved you can arrange to meet the pet, usually at the foster carer's home or nearby.
(3) If that goes well we will arrange a property check so we can verify that your home and yard are suitable for the pet you've selected. We will ask to see photo ID.
(4) If both sides agree, then you can pay for and adopt your new family member! The two week trial begins on the day of adoption. More details of our Adoption Procedure on our website: https://tinyurl.com/adoptproc
