Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Mya is an approximately 2-3 year old female Dane/Hound mix with natural ears. Update 1Update 1/2/15 - Mya has now been with us for over fourth months. She has shown much improvement over the months. She is slowly becoming more playful (see video) and open with other people. However, she is still hesitant with strangers. She still has difficulty letting people she doesn't fully trust pet her, but she has stopped pulling away from them like she did in the past. Recently, we took her on a hiking trail on a leash and she was perfect; she had no reaction to other people or dogs and did not run or hide from them either. Previously we said that she would do better with another dog in the house, however recently we had unfortunately lost our other dog that she was close with. The first few days after, she was very upset and distant from us. However, within a couple of weeks, she became a lot closer to humans and happy to interact with us. We think that having another dog in the house actually hinders her ability to trust people. Therefore, we think she would do better as an only dog with lots of care and attention (that is not to say she won't do well with another dog either though). In time, we know, she will make a wonderful addition to any family.
