Why I need a new home

Behavioral issues

My story

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

Filly was born 11/12/2012 and was sold to us 03/08/2013. We purchased her from the Clearbrook Kennels in Sumas Wa.
Her side kick is our long-haired Dachsund and they get along very well. Filly is the alpha dog and "everything is all about her". She is very protective of me and follows me everywhere. She loves to be on my lap and is very affectionate with me. She is full of energy and loves any opportunity to run freely. She is house trained and sleeps in a crate at night. She travels well in a car and our motorhome. She doesn't chew on the furniture or get into mischief when left alone at home.

Filly does have some behavior traits that are making it necessary to find a new home for her. Like a lot of dogs she will bark at the sound coming from the other side of the fence. She has a high pitched bark that triggers our neighbor's PTSD. She is also so protective of me that she gets jealous when anyone comes near me. She barks at whoever comes to the house and has nipped at strangers.
