Maya is a very sweet labrador x pitbull.
She is very cuddly and protective of her owners. She loves to play and snuggle.
However, she is very timid to strangers. When walking she may (often) lunge towards surrounding people.
She may suddenly lunge towards visitors in the home.
Has never hurt or attacked owners or family ( who she sees often) but will lunge towards strangers and those shes not familiar with.
My elderly mother and my family dont have the resources to properly train her and house her.
