Meet Izzy!! This sweet girl does great with other dogs and kids, just make sure she has her space during meal time! Not only is she obsessed with her humans; but she is also crate and leash/obedient trained! She loves to run after a ball and sure specializes her playtime! Izzy is looking for some active humans who have the time to take her out often for runs, hikes, etc. She needs a strong leader prepared to set some boundaries and rules to exercise her mind! She is a very smart girl with a lot of energy looking for her perfect, furever match!!!
