Why I need a new home

Behavioral issues

My story

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

Nellie lives the first 1+ outside with little interaction. She is having trouble adapting to being inside but doesn’t want to be outside. She has anxiety/separation anxiety and hurts herself when agitated. I healed her nose up from her banging it against a crate trying to escape, had her spayed, fecal tested and rabies vaccine. She had her other shots prior to our taking her. She had chewed her tail as well and we finally got it healed up (used bitter apple spray to get her to leave it alone). I really thought I could turn this around but sadly, she is more than I can handle. She wants to dominate me, specifically, (especially), but tries to dominate everyone and our 10 year old dog. She seems to need to herd. I believe she would do well with an experienced foster/adopter and on a farm!
