My story

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

COURTEY POST - Owner Surrender in Vinton , VA - Owners contact info is at th bottom of the bio]

Louisa is a gorgeous 1.5 year old black tri Australian Shepherd, with a cute nub tail. She weighs about 45 pounds. She's been trained by the cat in her current home and is good with kids, though she jumps when excited. She was raised with her brother Quincy, and they can feed off of each other's vices. Because of that dynamic, she does not seem to be particularly welcoming to new dogs, but with a change in that dynamic, her receptivity could also change. She also resource guards food from other dogs and seems to have a sensitive tummy. She's not good with chickens, so a home with small prey animals is not recommended.

She is a cuddle bug and loves to be pet. She is crate-trained, house trained (though needs reminders and quick response when she signals to go out to avoid accidents), spayed, and up to date on vaccines and preventatives.

She has lots of energy and loves walks, but she does pull and has some leash and barrier reactivity with people and other dogs, so she will need some work on that. She also enjoys digging for fun - something that proper exercise and appropriate outlets for that instinct can help curb.

Louisa is a gem of a dog and just needs someone who's willing to work on her training and ongoing exercise and socialization needs. If interested, please contact fdowdy@gmail.com.

Louisa is located in Vinton, VA. There is $150 adoption fee to ensure folks with good intentions.
