Layla's Story

Fostered in Navarre FL ***FENCE REQUIRED***<br/><br/>Meet Layla!<br/><br/>Layla is a 5–6-month-old black Great Dane puppy with a timid but incredibly sweet soul. She’s currently being fostered near Navarre, Florida, where she lives in a foster home with three kids and two other Great Danes. <br/><br/>When she first arrived, Layla was completely overwhelmed—having had zero socialization with people or pets before coming into rescue, she shut down from fear.<br/><br/>But with time, patience, and a loving foster home, Layla has blossomed into the sweetest, most loyal girl. She’s still shy with new people at first, but once she learns to trust you, she becomes a total Velcro pup—always close by, happiest in your lap, and soaking up all the love she can get.<br/><br/>Layla has come a long way in a short time. She loves playing with toys and other dogs (especially her foster dane siblings Maggie and Freckles), and she’s doing great on leash. She already knows “sit” and “stay,” rides well in the car, and has very few accidents in the house. She does need someone to go outside with her—either human or dog—because she still feels unsure on her own.<br/><br/>When meeting new people, Layla might bark at first, but curiosity quickly takes over and she warms up fast. She looks to her people for approval and seems to want to stay close to her person, sometimes even trying to guard them a bit.<br/><br/>Layla would thrive in a home with another friendly dog to help her feel secure. She will not do well in an environment where she is left alone for long periods of time. She requires a properly fenced yard and a patient, loving family who will continue to help her build confidence.<br/><br/>If you’re looking for a gentle, affectionate companion who will adore you with her whole heart once she trusts you, Layla might just be your perfect match.<br/><br/>Layla is spayed, current on vaccinations and microchipped. Her adoption fee is $400. To read over the requirements before applying to adopt Layla, please go to www.nwflgdr.com/adopt.<br/><br/>PLEASE NOTE: NWFLGDR does not transport. All approved adopters are required to pick up the dog in person from his or her foster parent's home.

NW Florida Great Dane Rescue Inc.'s Adoption Policy
Our adoption requirements are as follows: 1. All Dogs and Cats in your home MUST be spayed or neutered. We will call your vet to verify this. We allow exceptions in rare medical instances upon verification with your vet only. 2. All Dogs and outdoor Cats in your home MUST be current and have been kept historically up to date on annual vaccinations and monthly (or semiannual) heartworm and flea prevention. We will call your vet to verify this. We allow exceptions to this in rare medical instances upon verification with your vet, ONLY. 3. You must be a minimum of 21 years of age to adopt and be able to prove you're financially able to care for a great dane should a medical emergency arise. 4. You must own the property in which you live or your landlord must be willing to verify that you are allowed to have a Great Dane in your rental home. We check property records.? 5. Our Great Danes require a sturdy fenced in yard, particularly young or active danes. Generally, a six-foot or higher privacy fencing is preferred. In certain circumstances, the Board may waive this requirement depending upon the Dane's personality and temperament. Any such exceptions will solely be at the discretion of the Rescue Board. Under no circumstances will we consider invisible or electric fencing as acceptable. 6. We only adopt Dogs as indoor pets. We will not adopt Dogs to be used as guard dogs or to be kept out-of-doors. 7. A home visit is required for ALL adoptions, without exception. This is not a white-glove inspection, rather it is to ensure that the home is a safe environment for the Great Dane. 8. We do not transport. If you are applying from out of area or out of state, understand that if your application gets approved, you will be expected to pick up the dane in the location that he/she is being fostered. In addition, if the adoption does not work out, it is your responsibility to bring the dane safely back to us. 9. There may be multiple applications for the same Dog. Our Great Danes are placed in the home we believe most suitable for them, based upon their individual needs and temperament. 10. Before applying below, please expect this application process to take about two weeks. If you are applying from out of area or state, please expect a slight delay. It will take us more time to get the home visit set up. At any time, if you have questions about the status of your application, please email the rescue at nwflgdr@gmail.com.
