Why I need a new home

Behavioral issues

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:


Hey there, future best friend!

I’m Hester, a 60-pound, super-smart, fun-loving girl with a heart of gold. I come from a loving family who adores me, and I even go to doggie daycare! I’m a sensitive soul with a keen awareness of my surroundings. Sometimes, my comfort levels can fluctuate, and I may need a bit of extra space. When I nip, it’s often my way of saying, “Hey, I need a break.”

Despite my occasional need for boundaries, I’m a loyal and loving companion. I’m a quick learner and a pro at tricks. I can touch, focus, wait, sit, lie down, settle, put my head down, spin, shake, go to my place, find people, and do my own nails. Aside from tricks, I have a HUGE vocabulary and will hang on your every word! I also love ripping into food puzzles, playing goalie, chasing the flirt pole, and batting at the tether ball.

I’m looking for a patient and understanding person or family who can read my cues and respect my boundaries.
