*LANA

My story

Please allow me to introduce our foster dog, Lana. She came to the Burbank Animal Shelter with her brother, Lincoln, after a rough start in life. At about a year and a half old, these two have spent most of their lives in the shelter, but thanks to the love and care they’ve received, they’ve grown into wonderful, affectionate dogs who are ready for a forever home.I’ve had the joy of fostering Lana for a couple of weeks now, and she has truly been a dream. She hasn’t had a single accident in the house and figured out the doggie door immediately. She’s crate trained, very mellow, and just easy to have around. We’ve tested leaving her alone for short periods without crating her, and she’s done beautifully: no mess, no mischief, just a calm, quiet pup waiting for us to return.She’s been picking up leash walking skills quickly, and riding in the car is no problem at all. Sometimes she enjoys sticking her head out the window, and other times she just curls up and falls asleep. She’s very gentle with her toys, but definitely likes to have something to mouth. She’s still a young dog, so having appropriate things to chew on helps keep her happy and out of trouble.Lana gets along well with my own dog and tends to be a little on the submissive side. She definitely seems to feel more confident when her brother Lincoln is nearby. Since she spent so much of her life in the shelter, the outside world is still new and sometimes a little overwhelming. Things like trash trucks on walks can spook her, but with time and gentle encouragement, she’s already getting more comfortable.One thing she’s definitely not afraid of is water. Lana loves running through sprinklers and will happily jump into a stream. She’s playful, curious, and very loving. Her favorite thing is to sit at your feet and soak up belly rubs. She’s the kind of dog who just wants to be close to her people, and she gives that love right back tenfold.Lana is an amazing dog, and whoever adopts her is going to hit the jackpot. She has so much love to give and is just waiting for the right person or family to discover how special she truly is.Lana is in a foster home and not housed at the shelter.
