Why I need a new home

Behavioral issues

My story

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


Cocoa Puffs is a 4 year old Miniature Australian Shepherd. She’s a pandemic puppy and is not socialized around cats, dogs and children. She is a little bit of a “nervous Nelly” when she’s around new people or unfamiliar environment. Cocoa Puffs has resource guarding issues. If she thinks you are trying to take something away from her, she will try to bite you. More details will be provided upon contact.

Cocoa Puffs is very smart. She knows the name of all her toys. She is good at doing tricks, like “sit pretty”, “roll over”, “crawl”, “spin right/left” etc.

Cocoa Puffs loves to cuddle on her own terms. She enjoys biting on Bark Box bones.
