Why I need a new home

Infant, young children or pregnancy

My story

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


Beta is a 5 year old rescued as a puppy from a litter brought from Mississippi. She needs a home with no dogs and preferably no children. If you've got a backyard or field that would be great because she loves her zoomies. She loves running on trails and catching sticks (no need to spend money on toys!) She does have some issues with resource guarding but is able to adapt with time in a home. She's on Reconcile which has helped with barking at everything at the window/front door and anxiety. Beta is just as content running around as she is sleeping beside you on Friday movie night. It's best she stay away from people who do not know how to respect a dog's boundaries. She will give signals when she's anxious or uncomfortable with a situation.

Beta needs a home with experienced dog owners with no kids running in/out of the house and no other dogs (and maybe no cat). Put in the proper environment, she is the most therapeutic, loving, thankful and happiest dog.
