Hello and welcome to another edition of WMUR’s “Adopt This Pet”!

The Animal Rescue League of New Hampshire in Bedford has many cats, dogs and rabbits looking for permanent homes.

After over 550 days with the NH Animal Rescue League, Leslie is looking for a permanent home.

Leslie is a two-year-old mixed breed girl who needs a home full of love, patience and a fenced yard.

Leslie's biggest fear is cars. She doesn't like getting in a car and doesn't like being around cars in general. This makes long walks difficult for her. Although she can walk on a leash, her fear of passing cars has led her to hide behind bushes to escape them. This is why Leslie wants a home with a fenced yard. She wants to run around and play in the yard and chase away any squirrel or cat that comes in.

Leslie loves to play with other dogs, so a home with another playful dog would help her adjust to her new home and family. Although she likes other dogs, like most dogs, Leslie doesn't get along with cats. Leslie gets along well with older children who understand that Leslie is a special girl and she just needs time to get to know them; however, she is scared of small children.

Like many of us, Leslie suffers from allergies. Luckily, we know what helps her stay happy and content: a combination of prescription diet and medication, and she's back to normal.

Leslie hasn't had an easy life, so she makes you work hard for her love and affection at first. Once you earn it, you'll realize it was worth it.
