Stone is a good girl with lots of energy. As much as we love her she is very reactive to just about every sound and it’s really stressing out our older dogs. She’s not aggressively reactive but constantly barks at new or even familiar noises. She needs a loving home with someone who either knows how to deal with her temperament and/or has ample time to work with her. Stone is about 5o pounds, spayed, up to date on all vaccines and on preventatives, potty trained, kennel trained, and knows commands.
