Leela has adapted rather quickly to living indoors. She loves to cuddle and gives lots of kisses. Her favorite thing is to be by her foster dad's side. One thing to note is that Leela is missing her left eye but that doesn't stop her from anything! In the few short weeks she has been with us, Leela has learned what a kennel is for, how to sit for treats and that the outside is for the bathroom. She does not like the leash but we are slowly working on that. Also, she will need a strong person to help teach her manners. She learns quickly but is quite stubborn. Leela also needs reminder that she doesn't have to forage for food and that everything she sees does not need to be chewed on.
Leela can be a little territorial over her space and food. Would recommend a home with no dogs or bigger dogs as she seems to respond better to my large dog.
