In the shelter’s words

Shayla’s story is one of courage, resilience, and unstoppable joy. When she was rescued, she had painful thorny vines wrapped tightly around her body — but even then, her tail never stopped wagging. This girl is a fighter in every sense of the word, and her enthusiasm for life shines brighter than ever.Now healed and thriving, Shayla is an extremely high-energy, playful, and wonderfully sweet dog who’s ready to find a family that loves adventure as much as she does. Whether she’s zooming around the yard, chasing toys, or delighting in every new experience, Shayla brings a burst of happiness wherever she goes.Over the past month, she’s completed professional training to help polish her manners, and she’s eager to keep learning. To help her continue on the right paw, her adopter will receive three free training sessions—a perfect opportunity to build confidence and a strong bond together.Shayla would thrive with a family who appreciates her spirited personality and is excited to give her the active, loving life she deserves.If you’re looking for a brave, loyal companion with a heart full of joy and a zest for life,PLEASE NOTE: All your current pets must be spayed/neutered, vaccinated and on heartworm prevention to adopt from Polka Dogz. We only adopt in Florida. All adoption fees go to help all the dogs in the rescue, some of which require extensive medical care. Thank you for caring for the greater good. Adoption fee is $150 and you can adopt me at www.polkadogz.org.
