Sasha is 6mos old, weighs 30lbs, is intact, is not up to date on her vaccines, and is not microchipped. "I have her half-way house-broken. She will hold it in all night and then go outside first thing at 5am to do her business. She will show no signs of going, though, so if you are not on top of her she will continue pee/poop as she pleases instead of a routine. She refuses to walk on a leash. Big cuddler. I rescued her from a former neighbor but she has turn our lives very chaotic with her possessive behaviors towards me. Sasha dislikes/fears loud noises and thunder. She loves car rides. She's kept in her crate during the day and sleeps on her dog bed at night."
Sasha's guardian explains why she has made the difficult decision to rehome her: "Sasha is a wonderful dog when things are calm or it's one on one. She has become very possessive of me though and is starting to scare my family/other dog."
