Hello, her name is Dixie Jean. She was born June 6th 2024. She has never seen a vet, she was dewormed at home at 5 months. Never had any issues since. She used to get along with my other dog but as she grew they began becoming territorial. I don't know if she was the problem starter. I do know the other dog is a problem starter. She probably weighs around 50lbs. She is SUPER agile and decently strong. I had to make my fence higher so she wouldn't jump over it. She is pretty timid with alot of things. She seems always scared of new things. She doesnt know anything about personal space and always wants to cuddle. Amazing cuddles 10/10. She's not much of a barker unless someone knocks or rings doorbell. She only understands "Sit". Potty training is pretty good on days it doesnt rain. So she understand what it means when you say "let's go potty". Her and my other dog just fight too much now and I need to separate them. I would recommend having her as the only dog in the house.
