My personality

Why I need a new home

Behavioral issues

My story

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

Shy at first, but cuddly. Loves toys, not big on fetch but loves to run; goes to daycare with other dogs and does well. Food motivated and easy to trick train. Settles just fine at night. Adopted from a shelter as an adult, only known history was she was found as a stray. She knows sit, paw, down, circle (spin), and working on stay and roll over. She is mostly housetrained, has some accidents when given access to pillows or blankets when left alone for significant amounts of time. She jumps, but does not have any issues with mouthing and is easily redirected to toys. As much as I love her, I need to rehome her entirely because I lack the time and resources to properly care for her. She has some anxiety, destructive behavior, stranger danger, and leash reactivity issues that are not so severe that progress can’t be made, but I do not feel I can properly help her with my severely limited time. She needs a new home that can accommodate/put in the work to help her through her issues.
