This lovely girl is four-year-old Lena, a Dogo Argentino mix. She was originally adopted from the Erie Humane Society but was returned as she was not getting along with the other female dog. She was initially placed in a public kennel but the stress proved too much and she started to lose weight. She was moved to a quiet kennel out of public view and is eating much better.

Lena takes a while to warm up to people, especially men. She has, however, developed a wonderful relationship with our male kennel attendants and volunteers. It just takes a little longer for her to feel safe and comfortable with men. Once you become her friend, she is very affectionate and loves to snuggle and give kisses. Lena gets along with select other dogs but we’re not sure about cats. Her best friend and playmate, Scooby, was adopted a few weeks ago. Lena walks incredibly well on the leash, pulling to get outside the building but once out, will walk at your pace. She takes her treats gently.

Lena is a sweet, sensitive, affectionate girl who will make a wonderful family companion. It will take time but the process and final results will be well worth the effort. Please share this post as we need to get Lena out of the kennel and into a loving home. We would love to have you visit Lena at the Erie Humane Society.
