She arrived soft, sweet, and incredibly easy to love. Absolutely stunning on the outside, Layla Marie’s true beauty lives in her heart. She bonds in a sincere, tender way, leaning into kindness and responding to affection with trust and warmth. Now safe in our care, Layla Marie is ready for her next chapter. A real home. A real family. A place where she will always be safe, cherished, and understood. Layla Marie is waiting for someone to see just how special she truly is and give her the forever she deserves. All dogs will be altered, microchipped, and receive age-appropriate vaccines prior to adoption.

🧠 Temperament
She arrived soft, sweet, and incredibly easy to love. Confident, highly trainable and deeply loyal, bred to work all day alongside a handler.
🎾 Exercise
High — 60-90+ minutes daily plus a job to do. Scent work and obedience are ideal outlets.
✂️ Grooming
Heavy double-coat shedding year-round with two big blowouts a year. Brush several times a week.
🏙️ In a NYC apartment
Demanding in an apartment: large, vocal and often reactive to the constant stimulus of a city street. Very doable for an experienced owner, hard for a first-timer.
