Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Bobbie is a sweet girl with lots of potential. She has some trust issues and needs a slow, patient person to bring out her best. She is a young dog and we feel she didn't get the socialization puppies need to become confident dogs. She has a high flight response to situations that seem intimidating and she shys away from men. Obedience training for confidence building will help her new person understand her fears and learn how to overcome them safely. Once she trusts you, Bobbie is a very fun and happy dog. She likes her daily walks and loves to race around the play yard. She sits for treats and teaching her more tricks will build confidence and create a bond with her new family.
She would love a dog companion but comes across as aggressive and that makes other dogs afraid. She hasn't learned boundaries and can be too "in-your-face" for some dogs. Dog intros are a must for this girl! She isn't a fan of cats so we are seeking a no cat home. Because of her under-socialization, we are also seeking a home without children under age 10. Everyone in the household needs to be able to understand her body language and respect her boundaries.
She will be 3 years old in June and has so much to offer. Her ideal home will have people with "shy dog" experience, an established routine, no cats and children over age 10, a fenced yard would be ideal but not required. If you can meet Bobbie's needs, please fill out the adoption application and make an appointment to meet her.
