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:

Carmela is a wonderfully loving dog with a joyful, playful spirit. She especially enjoys jumping around and has an abundance of energy. Although I have taken her to training classes, we didn’t make the progress I had hoped for. She learns quickly and still has that sweet puppy heart. She adores her toys, treats, snuggle blankets, and her big pink pillow.

Unfortunately, I am no longer able to keep her. Her bark is very high-pitched, and with my hearing aids I receive frequent warnings, which has made it too difficult to manage. Carmela is very gentle and affectionate with my grandchildren, but she is a jumper; now that she has grown, she’s taller than my granddaughter when she jumps. She only wants to play—she doesn’t realize that her enthusiasm can cause issues. She truly is my little spring.

I had her fixed hoping it might help with her barking, but sadly it did not. I wish with all my heart that I could keep her, because she really is a sweet, loving girl. toys, blankets, pen
