My story

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

Piper is a very attentive anxious dog. She loves to cuddle and can never be too close. You will always know if someone or something is around as they enter her space. She is a great dog for an experienced couple with no kids or a farm dog she does stay close but will wonder a little bit away and do her own thing.

She is not destructive unless it is a stuffed toy and then it must be de fluffed to completion. We are rehoming her after having her for 6 years because she started showing aggression (growling snarled)to our children when startled and we just do not feel comfortable with her around our children anymore.

We have her on anxiety meds and those seem to have helped but unfortunately that is not a permanent fix and we would love to see her go to a place where she can have space
to roam and swim.

She has been around other dogs and cats and has had little tiffs but nothing major but I feel like she is more relaxed w/o any other animals.
