My name is Hihi!

We adopted Hihi in September 2025. She was taking 200 mg of Trazadone twice a day for anxiety. They thought she might be able to wean off the anxiety medication after a few months with us. Unfortunately it appears she will need some kind of medication for anxiety long term. With strangers she is generally just shy. At home her anxiety (and likely boredom) comes out destructively. She chews and tears anything she can. When calm, she has attached well to us. She is beautiful and often very sweet. We have a lot of sympathy for her anxiety but no fenced yard to run her energy out. It has been recommended to us that we work with an animal behaviorist which we can't afford. Hihi does have potential to be a wonderful dog for an experienced dog person with a fenced yard and time to take her on longer walks and do more training with her.
