Sacramento- Birdie is what breed?  We have no idea.  Some people look at her and think doodle (but she sheds) others think she behaves like a tibetian terrier and we have no idea.  We know she is super cute, but if you expect a naturally perfect dog, this is not her. She was extremely nervous with people (almost semi-feral) but she is on Prozac now and she is much more at ease with people now.  She is a bit nervous with men as well.  I would expect anyone who adopts her would expect to keep her on a leash 24/7 in the beginning, hand feeding, and not having high expectation right away that she will love you.  She will love you, but she needs time and a safe space to do this.  This means positive-only training. Also, because her nervousness, small children will not be considered, and frankly anyone who has an active social life likely would not be a good fit for her.  When we got her from the shelter, we knew she was shy but most dogs get over quickly- that has not been the case for her but the Prozac has made her a much more normal dog (luckily it is cheap). She is smart and would benefit from someone who wants to work with her and use her energy up. 

​She likes dogs, is just getting toys, and would be fine with dog savvy cats.  If they run, she will chase.  

​She is spayed, microchipped, up to date on vaccines and ready for a home of her own.
