Story
Loki is an extremely loyal companion, and loving toward his immediate family. Very intelligent and easily trained, high energy dog. Absolutely loves car rides! Had been good with most children. Walks on a leash but would be great with a fenced in yard or room to roam. House trained. I have considered him to be a great asset in our lives. Not good with other dogs. He is considered a reactive dog and needs an experienced adopter and a calm home that can provide consistency. He does have a problem with men and some male children.

Story
Hello this is Lilo, she is a mixed breed of either a flat coated retriever or border collie. She was from a rescue, I was told her birthday is Nov 8th 2019. She is a super smart dog. She will stay close by off leash and walks well on leash. She is house broken and eats twice daily. She suffers with separation anxiety and noise phobia. I tried basic training, sedatives/fluoxetine(tired for 2 yrs) NO IMPROVEMENTS and claiming music. None have really helped with the anxiety. She currently on calming care supplement daily. She is a sweet cuddle buddy and protective of her people. She loves car rides but is TERRIFIED of motor cycles or semitrucks driving pass. She loves running out doors and playing catch. My family is large and do not have the time she deserves with our busy schedules. Needs a home with no other dogs because she is jealous and someone who can give her long hrs with them at home.
