Lima is a busybody who knows most commands but could use some work on her jumping.
She’s a food disposal and will eat anything (no pillows, stuffed toys, or filled beds).
Lima needs to be the only pet in the home. In her past home, she has shown aggressive tendencies and resource guarding towards the older male dog.
We also do not recommend any small children, other dogs, or cats for these reasons.
She is crate trained and loves getting groomed!
