My story

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

Sasha thinks she's such a princess, especially when she's rolling around in dirt!

We adopted Sasha from an associate 12+ years ago when she was 5 months old. She's been our snuggly princess who hates baths ever since. Though she's a senior dog, she has a ton of energy. She doesn't play fetch, but will play keep away! She's good on leash but wants to charge ahead, and needs constant, gentle reminders to heel. Sasha enjoys it when company comes over, but gets very nervous around loud or sudden noises such as fireworks, yelling, or shrill beeping (e.g. a stopwatch, phone alarm, etc.) and will look for a place to escape or hide. Tall fences are a plus as this dog has some hops! Sasha is a sweetheart with humans, but tends to get very grumpy towards other pooches. Frequent, controlled, and supervised visits with another dog will help her get used to it, even if she still gives it the cold shoulder. She loves pets and constant, gentle reassurances, especially when getting groomed.
