My story

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

Crocodile is an awesome, incredibly smart girl who loves to run, play tug, and learn new skills! She is sweet, goofy, playful, and so fun to work with. She was picked up with her litter by animal control last fall after being dumped at a gas station. I adopted her a few weeks later and have been working with her since to help her overcome some fear and reactivity and build her confidence. She bonds strongly with those she loves and trusts, but struggles with new people and does have a bite history (fear driven).
She has progressed a ton and is much less reactive now, but I think she would ultimately be better off in the long term with someone who has more capacity to train her and give her enough stimulation. She has the characteristic intelligence and energy of a shepherd and I think could really benefit from being a working dog or getting into a sport. I'd like her to go to someone with breed experience. She is muzzle & crate trained, knows many commands. Reach out with questions!
