My personality

Why I need a new home

Behavioral issues

My story

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

Cookie is a very sweet dog when with her family. She’s loyal, protective, and loves to snuggle. She loves a good car ride, does well on walks, and makes a great travel companion.

She tries to play with little kids as if they’re dogs and it scares them. When visitors come to the house it takes her a few encounters before she stops reacting. This is a major improvement from when we adopted her 18 months ago. We have worked with a trainer to improve these behaviors and have gotten as far as we can.

She would thrive in a home without small children as an only dog. She currently lives with another dog and two cats and they do get along. However, when taken out alone her behavior is much better. We’re looking for a home with an environment that best suits her needs and the many children that comes through our house is not it.
