My story

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

Coco is an incredibly sweet dog. With two toddlers another on the way and three dogs we simply don't have the time for her energy. Our older female shepherd does not like having her around either. Coco does great with our male shepherd and they are awesome playmates. I have high hopes that with proper introduction she would do well with other dogs. She is very reactive at first but this is mostly defensiveness. We rescued her from a shelter when she was 4 months old and she had very low confidence. She is doing better and even had professional puppy training for a few months. We don't allow her on the furniture, but if you do she is as snuggly as they come. Coco does really well with kids, even older toddlers but has shown some nervous behaviors around babies and very young toddlers who have no limits. Coco needs lots of space to run around or frequent, intense exercise. She loves to chase bugs and her favorite toys.

We had a DNA test done and she is 50% GSD w/ a mix of collie
