My story

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

Meet the sweetest Potato!

She is highly food motivated and loves to lounge around under her many blankets like a proper potato.

She struggles with separation anxiety and can be fear-reactive, but she's not aggressive. She may bark or whine at new people but is curious and warms up quickly - especially when treats are involved.

She has never destroyed any furniture or had accidents in the house. She will bark and howl when left alone - this is really important to consider if you have neighbors!

She's very smart and responds well to consistent training. She is leash trained and goes for long daily walks to help her anxiety.

She may be able to live with other dogs with proper introduction, as she lived with 3 other dogs for many years (until 1 dog started attacking her, provoked my her anxiety). She is not crate trained and being crated amplifies her anxiety.

She would thrive in a relaxing environment that isn't loud or chaotic, especially if one or more people work from home.
