My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

My husband and I adopted Alley when she was about 6 weeks old. She joined our family of 2 and our yellow lab Max. Alley immediately took to Max and they were the best of friends until we lost Max to a seizure disorder in 2017.
Alley has always lived in a large back yard (~.25 acre). She loves to play fetch, chase birds and squirrels and be scratched under her chin. She is protective but has never bitten anyone. She always alerts us if there is anyone (or any animal) at the house. We now have 2 kids, ages 4 and 2 and are expecting our third child in January. Alley is great with older kids - does not growl or jump. However, she does not tolerate younger children. She is good with my son who is now 4, but still growls at my daughter, age 2. She has shown her teeth at her twice (both times my daughter was trying to pet/play with her and she was eating). My daughter is now terrified of her and it is disrupting our family. We are so sad to see her go and want to ensure she has a loving home
