Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Sasha is a 3 year old female (born 1-15-11), spayed, fully vaccinated, heartworm negative, house trained, crated trained, and leash trained.
Sasha comes to us from the Virginia Beach SPCA where she was left by a family who could not longer care for her. She was scheduled to be euthanized because she was "dog aggressive" and has separation anxiety. She has taken to her other foster dogs with no problem and would probably actually prefer a home with the right large male dog to play with. She is shy with people and will need to be crated when left home alone because she does have separation anxiety. Once she warms up to you, she is an absolute LOVE who wants to be where ever the people are! She would prefer a home with children 12 or older who understand how to interact with a dog of her size.
