Why I need a new home

Behavioral issues

My story

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

Very sweet 7 yo 6m mini Aussie female, Prairie Rose, needing rehome. Originally rescued when about 2 years old. High stress/anxiety. Not long after we adopted her she bit someone in the face when they got too close to her too quickly, and another on the hand when we had someone try to come let her outside on a walk when we were away. We did about a year of consistent gentle dog training with quite a bit of improvement in behavior. Walks very well with gentle lead, though any loud noises will get her running back home. Does tend to herd, likes to walk behind you. We have kept her away from any new people/strangers and taken as many protective measures as possible, but unfortunately she gets high stress with children. She has bitten our daughter twice (face both times) when she just got too close to her walking by and happening to spook her. It breaks our heart but we do feel that it would be better for both Prairie and our family if she was in a home without children.
