Story

Diana is a fun loving pure bred corgi who's seven years old and weighs about 40 pounds. She is a very smart dog, enjoys learning new tricks and is very playful. She loves being active outside and enjoys long walks. She likes water and even enjoys rolling in the snow. Unfortunately over the past four years she has become very reactive and aggressive towards my other older corgi, and gets very anxious with our toddler. She is crate trained and muzzle trained. With the help with many trainers it has been best decided if she moved into a home with no other animals where she can receive all the attention and affection. She is such an amazing and affectionate companion who deserves the join the best family. I will provide both her soft travel and hard crate with separate bed. Bowls, leashes, collar, harness, outerwear clothes such as life jacket , and snow jacket with snow shoes. Also first month of food, treats, and toys.
