Why I need a new home

Does not get along with other pet

My story

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


Heiress is a very beautiful girl who was abused by her previous owner. Because of this she is very shy with new people but quickly opens up to the people in her home. She has been around many other dogs and gets along with all except one. She is being rehomed because she is reactive with my 3 year old male Sheltie. She would be better suited for a home with no dogs or a very confident dog. She is excellent with children (she has been around kids from 4-10).

We have the results of her DNA test that we can provide to any potential adopters.

She is missing a few digits on her back right foot that the vet thinks is a birth defect. You would normally not even notice it except for when it is wet or cold outside she lifts that foot off of the ground. She is up to date on shots, spayed, and mostly potty trained. She has accidents if it is wet outside because she despises the rain.

She would not be good in a home with small animals like birds or rodents.
