My personality

My story

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

A couple of weeks ago we took in several Cocker Spaniels/Cock-a-poos who had been used for breeding. They are now retired and ready to live the good life as a family pet. Xena is one of these beautiful girls.

Xena is the sweetest 10 year old lady! Despite her previous living situation, she has taken to living in a home quite well. She absolutely loves getting petted and receiving attention. She has great manners and will walk to the door when she needs to go out. As you can see, Xena is a bit overweight, so she will need an active adopter. Someone who can walk her daily and encourage regular exercise. For a dog that has probably never been on a leash, she does very well. She loves going for walks and checking out the scenery. If she feels you walking too slow for her, she does give a little tug to speed up.

She is currently around dogs of all sizes and does very well. She does prefer that male dogs give her space sometimes. She doesn't overreact, but she does let them know. She does great around kids as well. Xena will go in a crate but doesn't really need one.

She has been spayed, micro-chipped and is up to date on vaccinations. She did test positive for heartworms so we have started her on medication. She can continue the medication in her new home which is covered by Homes Fur Hounds.

If you are interested in giving this sweet girl a loving home her application can be found at www.homesfurhounds.org. She is located in Williamsburg, Va.
