Long-time shelter pup snuggles with toy during nap

A pup at the Humane Society of Tampa Bay had been in the kennel so long she was brought into the adoption office to live to help get her adopted.

Kayla, a five-year-old retriever/terrier, American Staffordshire mix, is almost six-years-old and she was brought to the shelter in July.

The Humane Society shared a photo of the sweet pup snuggled up with a toy which she cuddled throughout her whole nap. "Our hearts break for her spending so many days in the kennel," the post said. "She's being such a good girl and we hope this will help potential adopters see that too!"

Kayla would love a family that's active and energetic, and without cats. She loves to cuddle and she loves the water.
