Meet Esther, a vibrant, adult dog with a personality that will light up your life. She`s playful and energetic, always ready to embark on a new adventure or play a fun game. She weighs 46 pounds and likes agility, car rides, running, tugging, toys, walks, chase and wrestling. Esther is also smart and curious, always eager to learn new tricks or explore new environments. She knows the sit, stay, no, down, and fist bump commands. But don`t let her energy fool you - she`s also a cuddle bug who loves nothing more than to curl up with her favorite human. She never wants to be alone and has had separation anxiety in the past. She`s housetrained and leash trained, making her as easy fit for your home. Her protective nature makes her a loyal companion, always ready to stand by your side. Esther`s excitable and affectionate nature makes her a lovable friend who`s always there to brighten your day. She`s a bit jumpy and has some food aggression, so she needs a loving owner who can guide her. She can be picky about her canine companions and is also territorial, preferring her own space at times. You`ll need to bring your dog to meet her as she seems to prefer more laid-back docile canines. She has no experience with children. Despite these quirks, Esther`s love and loyalty make her a wonderful companion. Adopt Esther and experience the joy of unconditional love. (tw 11/21/2024)
