My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Shiva needs a new home. We’ve had her for 3.5 years, and she is an extremely smart, loyal, loving, and energetic Australian Shepherd mix. She can play for hours and is perfect on a leash. She also knows 10-15 tricks!
She does not play well with our 2 year old, however, and are planning to have more children. We need to find her a new home where she can get the love and attention she deserves. She’s great with older kids, it’s just our young son she has a problem with. She isn’t outwardly aggressive, but she herds and nips and sometimes growls at our son. We’ve had to keep them separated for about a year, and it’s not fair to Shiva or our son. It could be jealousy or perhaps her energy doesn’t mix well with very young children.
She needs a home where she can have the attention she needs.
