Why I need a new home

Fostered

My story

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

Hope is a special kind of survivor. Her life has been full of struggle and strife, and she has held strong and bravely loved a difficult hooman. Her hooman has multiple personal challenges and has decided for the health and well-being of her best friend, to find a more stable and and financially secure family who can provide the medical care and safe home Hope deserves. I have agreed to foster her until then.
I will be working with her on basic house etiquette, and and training to sit, stay, walk well on leash, etc. don’t think she’s ever been to the vet, has never had her nails groomed, and has some temperament swings due to learned behaviors and maybe a little PTSD. She is a loving dog, and has separation anxiety. Her best friend would be someone who sits most days. She would be most happy in a lap all day, every day.She is fierce and fearless.
Note, she may already be pregnant, and may also have mange. We are at our pet limit with our lease, and honestly, financially as well.
