Why I need a new home

Behavioral issues

My story

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

Gita (who's name means song) is an active young dog who enjoys a 1-3 mile daily walk. She does not bark or pull at the leash when walked using a Gentle Leader harness. She is highly intelligent and inquisitive. She would do best in a home with a fully fenced yard. She can be skittish/fearful with some noises or quick movements and is slow to warm up to new environments. She loves to cuddle, knows basic commands, is good at the groomer, vaccinated/spayed, and is house trained.

She does okay with dogs her size and cats that are experienced with dogs. She has some significant resource guarding behavior with food, and it is best if she is fed away from other animals and left alone to eat. If she feels her food is being threatened she can sometimes growl and become aggressive - this means she is not a good fit for a family with young children. She can be territorial with some toys and attention. She is also sensitive about being touched on her back legs at times.
