My story

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

3/7/22

A very kind and generous person has paid Shelia’s adoption fee. So no fee if you are an approved adopter!!!

Sheila is 10 months old and 38 lbs. She is current on vaccines, microchipped, and spayed. Sheila is very sweet, playful, and loves playing with other dogs. She knows “come,” “sit,” “stay”, “go to your bed (crate)”, “down,” and “leave it.” She is crate trained and loves hard chew toys and lick pads. The previous adopters are having issues housebreaking her and are returning her. They have found she is fearful and reactive towards strangers. She has had some professional training and previous owners had been working on this with her and she has shown some improvement. She would probably do best with someone who will continue to work on that with her. Would do best in a home with older respectful children. We also think she might do better in a home with another dog that can be a good model and companion for her.
