Why I need a new home

Behavioral issues

My story

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

Emma is a sweetheart, affectionate to every person she meets. She is smart but strong-willed. Emma needs someone who is physically fit, energetic , strong, and a pack leader.
She should not be around young children, as she has exhibited a strong prey drive and is overly exuberant. She is
" bitey" sometimes. I always have a bitter tasting spray with me because I can't predict when she will be nippy or tug on my clothes. It sometimes happens at transition times, such as coming inside after being tethered.
She hasn't yet learned to respect household objects. Emma has many chew toys, but she still is tethered to protect my furniture, etc.
Emma is house- broken and crate-trained. She is not possessive of her food.
She walks better with a harness and is still learning not to pull.
Emma is about 1 and 1/2 years old and weighs 42 pounds. She was a stray who was rescued from a shelter. She will make the right person a wonderful companion.
