More: Leila brought love and energy back into our lives after the loss of our dog Charlotte. Although she is a southern belle she loves the snow! We know her mom was a German Sheppard but think dad might have been a fox or coyote as she is a very successful hunter of the chipmunks and squirrels in our yard. Despite her love for the outdoors she has a delicate side which includes laying on the couch with her head on a pillow or furrowing under the covers of our bed.
