My story

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

`Lady is very sweet however seems to get overwhelmed easily.
-She would do best in a home with (maybe) another dog or home with 12+ year old kids or no kids. Very food aggressive.
-Loves to chew. She has seperation anxiety. *I would recommend crate training when leaving the house.
-Seems to be mostly potty trained however she is still pottying in the house (Does try to warn us at times)
*We attribute it to nerves, but seems to have spent a lot of time outside from a young age
-She does great at night. Does not bark at cars (will try to dart after grey cars) and does well on a leash. She certainly can be testy but she learns very fast.
-If we did not have a toddler we would keep her; however from some of the signs we do not feel comfortable enough to trust her alone or keep a constant eye on her around our daughter.
-Overall very sweet. Loves attention and very cuddly.
-However with the mouthiness, and she did nip at mom and dad, it is not in our best interest to have her around our daughter. She would do amazing in a quiter home with likely more adults.`
