Why I need a new home

Behavioral issues

My story

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

Lexi is a wonderful companion dog, I adopted her through a foster in May 2013. She is a 7 year old ,half Yorkie Terrier mix. The reasons I am in search of a new home are due to the fact she bit my daughter on the face when she was startled ... this happened aprox 6 months ago, with no other incidents. Lexi is very drawn towards adults and dislikes /tolerates children at best. Another reason for rehoming Lexi, is the fact that my children and I live in a condominium now, which in our previous living was a house. Lexi has not taken to condo life, in fact she barks constantly at every neighbors coming and going... bringing added stress to all parties involved. I am a divorced mother of 3 young children and unfortunately, there are not enough hours in the day to give my dog the attention she needs. I am hoping to find a forever home for Lexi in a house with adults only. She would thrive in that environment and be a much happier dog.
