Story
From Texas, adopted by my daughter while working there. 2 years old and has been a very good dog up until Thanksgiving. Showed aggression towards a Yorkie that it has lived with for 1.5 years and a Sheltie it’s lived with for over a year. Never shown aggression towards a human and never been around cats. She could be a good hunting dog, has gone on point in the past. Loves to cuddle and likes to go on walks. Would like to see her in a home with no other dogs or big dogs.
