Snowball is a husky mix breed who is a almost years old, as she gets older me and my family are having more and more problems handling her constant obidence problems, we live in a small house currently due to financial problems and it's just not enough room for her, she's not able to get enough of her daily exercise and doesn't like to listen to anyone when told to go lay down and likes to throw fits where handling her can be to much for us sometimes, she needs a home with a big yard as she seems to want to be a mainly outdoor dog due to her coat and energy, we just don't have the space or the money to get a proper fence and other stuff she would need to be an outdoor dog, she has really bad kennel problems and hates being left in a kennel and has bad separation anxiety to where if just left in the house she likes to use her teeth to try and break out, another reason we believe being mainly outdoors would be better for her, she's a really loving and sweet dog when you grow a bond with her and will care about you with her life, our current life situation just makes it hard for her to get the proper care and resources she really needs. We've been trying for a while to find her a good home where she can flourish and so far no matter what nothing has worked out for us.
