ADOPTED ON 08-15-15 –  Aila is your typical puppy, she is loving exploring the whole new world around her, now that she is no longer confined to a small pen at the dog pound. She was recently pulled from the Winnsboro, Louisiana dog pound on April 18, 2015, she is a 7 month old Anatolian Shepherd. She is approximately 48 lbs, and super sweet and enjoys being with other dogs.

Aila’s current foster home has 10 other dogs ranging from the size of 10lbs-62lbs. Her southern foster Kim tells us that everyone in the pack accepted her right away. She has a calm positive energy about her, and listened to the other dog’s cues. She also interacts very well with humans. Although, Kim has only had her a little over a week, she looks to her for direction and comes when called. She’s first time being on leash was last Saturday and she picked it up immediately. She has not yet been around children, but her new home may possibly include them. As she was just recently rescued, we are working with her on jumping. She is not a crazy hyper dog, but being a typical puppy she gets a little excited when she wants to see you. We are actively working with her on this behavior, and she is learning very quickly not to jump.  House training is a work in progress, as she is a puppy and still learning. She sleeps quietly in her kennel at night. She has only ridden in the vehicle once to date, and did so in a crate.

Aila is a sweet, smart inquisitive girl. Her ideal home would be an active family that will provide her with daily exercise and include her in their activities. She absolutely loves to be outside, and would love to be your hiking buddy!  She is very food motivated and pays close attention to her humans. This should make training a breeze. It would be excellent if her new family would take her to puppy class to help her learn some basic manners, and continue with socialization. She interacts wonderfully with other dogs, and pays close attention to their cues. She would love it if her new home included some other four legged friends. She has not been around cats to date.  If you are looking for a companion who would be happy to be by your side whether you are doing yard work hiking a 6 mile trail, then she is the girl for you. She is loving exploring this big new world and she wants you to explore it with her! Please fill out an application if Aila sounds like the right match for you.

• Always teach children how to approach and touch dogs
• Always supervise any interactions between dogs and young children to prevent any biting or ear or tail pulling on the part of either party.
• Teach your child never to approach any dog while he’s eating or sleeping or to try to take the dog’s food away. No dog, no matter how friendly, should ever be left unsupervised with a child.
• Children need to be taught how to how to approach and touch dogs, and always supervise any interactions between dogs and young children.
• No dog should ever be left unsupervised with a child because often-young children don’t understand that a cute little dog, or any dog, might not want “love and kisses.”
• Never let young children pick up a puppy or small dog. Instead, make them sit on the floor with the dog in their lap. Pay attention to the dog’s body language, and put him safely in his crate if he appears to be unhappy or uncomfortable with the child’s attention.
• Always teach children how to approach and touch dogs, and always supervise any interactions between dogs.
• Teach your child never to approach any dog while he’s eating or sleeping or to try to take the dog’s food away. No dog should ever be left unsupervised with a child.
• Be prepared dogs will protect themselves
• Most important, it is your responsibility to make sure that your children and the dog are supervised at all times and safe. You cannot leave it up to the dog, the dog is an animal and will behave like an animal. They rely on us to guide and protect them, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
