My story

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

I adopted Rhody in 2019. During the pandemic I lost my job and took her on the road with me to visit relatives across the country. Somewhere along the way she started getting very protective and reactive. I just had a baby and she is scaring me with her behavior towards my son. Trying to keep her away from him is breaking my heart. She needs attention and love and a friend. She is a great dog, 6 years old, very loving, playful, cuddly, energetic, uses dog speech buttons, knows all the basic commands, all the basic tricks, plus "kiss", "hug", "whisper", and "go find..." She is emotionally in tune to her person and will come cuddle/lick your face if you're crying or will stand in front of the screen if the news is stressing you out. If she had it her way she would play fetch all day long then cuddle under the comforter with you all night. She is food and toy aggressive to kids, cats, and dogs. She needs a one person household. Someone who will take her hiking, fetch, cuddle and repeat.
