My name is Oksana!

Oksana is 1.5 years old and a little shy of 40lbs. She enjoys playtime and walks, but is definitely a home-y and cuddle up dog. She is oftentimes shy when meeting new people, and can even be anxious in a room full of new people (lay down in a corner or under a table kind of shy). She has lived in the country and the suburbs, and does well in both environments. In the wilderness or a field, she is very likely to follow you closely/watch you work all day. She has done well with no incident around cats, kids, and livestock, but she doesn't get along with other dogs very well; she would probably do best in a home as an only dog. She is spayed, house trained, and knows basic commands (sit, stay, lay down, come, go to kennel). She hasn't been trained as a livestock dog, but her protective instincts (she has barked at birds for landing too close to me and chased racoons away when they got too close to the cat!) could be a boon in that field.
