Why I need a new home

Behavioral issues

My story

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


Lelani is a beautiful 4 year old pitbull, she just turned 4 on September 13th. She is very sweet, loving and playful but she can be easily triggered because she was neglected by her previous owner. My ex and I decided to take her in when a friend was looking to rehome her after his roommate moved out and abandoned her. She used to pee when you called her name and when approached too quickly. I've tried to work with her but have no experience training dogs and can't afford to hire a trainer so I'm looking to rehome her so that she can get the help she needs. I have another dog and they used to get along great but she has now attacked him a couple of times completely unprovoked and I'm afraid I can no longer safely keep her. I'm looking for someone with a little experience with dogs, with no children or other pets as she likes to be the center of attention and has previously bitten one of my nieces who she knew very well while they were play fighting. Please help me find her a good home!
