My story

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


Akela is a sweet loving girl who we adopted a year ago. She had adapted well with our other Aussie who is older and keeps her young. The people we bought her from painted a picture of her being a family dog and great with kids, but sadly that is not the case. She is living with my 1 year old son, but runs away from him and does not like being touched by him a lot. Our other Aussie does not care at all if he climbs on her. Akela does not like it. We were told she was a family dog, but seems like they did not treat her right because you can tell she was traumatized. She gets scared of a lot of things and runs away. Her safe space is under our bed. She likes to hide under something. If our son was older and understood to leave her alone it would not be an issue, but because he doesnt I feel she would best be fit for a family with older kids or just an adult home.
Please help me find her a loving home, she deserves that after all she has been through.
