My personality

Why I need a new home

Found or abandoned

My story

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


Darla belonged to an older lady who passed away, and whoever inherited her abandoned her. She showed up at my father's house one day, and he asked me to take her in. We never did find out how old she is but about a year old is our best guess. She is sweet and good natured around people, and will cringe if anyone yells at her. But she is very aggressive toward other animals. I gave her obedience lessons to try and calm her down, but she is extremely energetic and needs more play time and care than a single man living alone by himself can give her. She needs someone who can devote a lot of attention to her and preferably doesn't have any other pets, or is else very experienced with dealing with dogs that are not. She would be suitable for an older couple or a young family with children but no other pets (she would definitely give the kids a workout).
