Missy

We have decided to rehome our dog due to life changing circumstances. My son has a lot of therapy during the week, and I have another son that's about to be one, so we don't really have the time to really work with her and give her the attention that she deserves. She was in the company through the leash for a whole month and the dog trainer is with her for the rest of her life. She's a German shepherd with Siberian husky and Dutch mix and she's going to be 5 years old in March. We've had her for 4 years and it's just getting too much on me knowing that we have two children, and she doesn't get those daily walks or gets out like she should. We really want her to go to a good home someone that's willing to give her all the attention. She likes tug of war and the bamboo bones. She's a great dog she's very smart, we just cannot keep her anymore. She is up today on her shots she just needs her heartworm test and to stay on heartworm medicine. She's not very good with vets so she would have to be on a medicine called Trazodone. It was a hard decision, but we have to do what's best for her.

All her belongings, everything, will be included for a small fee to cover her training collar.
