Why I need a new home

Human health issues (e.g. allergies, sickness)

My story

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


I hate to even think about this but I am suffering several mental illnesses and Dixie has the best nose and really needs a good owner with breed experience, who can train her properly and give her a job to do. She can be super sweet, but previous owners who got her from a pup did not train properly… she was mostly crated. I got her to train for search and rescue just when my PTSD kicked in a depression and other mental issues took over training importance. She’s assumed the alpha dog position in my family and has separation anxiety… which kills me but I’m more stressed than good with her; and adding stress to her life is not something I want to continue to do. She’s an amazing girl, she just needs to be with the right person who can give her undivided attention and proper training. My autism, adhd and PTSD is coming in the way of all of this and it’s not a good fit for either of us, as much as I consider her my child.
