After several months of deliberation, my husband and I have decided to rehome Emma. We got her two years ago, when she was a little over 1. When we got her, she had serious anxiety issues, which we attributed to living with a breeder and with many other dogs for such a sensitive time in a dog's life. While she had started to make strides towards getting better, things have regressed (her anxiety issues and potty-training) since we moved/since our daughter was born in January. Her over sensitivity to sounds, movement, etc has led to her waking up Claire about 3-5 times daily, and as much as it breaks our hearts to rehome her, we feel it is in both hers and our best interest. We do feel like she would do well in a home that doesn't have kids (she is wonderful with Claire, but is only 4.5 pounds which will be dangerous when Claire is able to walk) and that is able to dedicate the time to do behavioral training with her. She really is a very sweet girl once she has warmed up to you, and she loves unlimited snuggles! She is due for a couple of her shots and is currently on medicine for her anxiety. I would send a copy of her vet records with her, along with crate, toys, etc. this really breaks my heart to have to do, but I realize that her needs are not being met with us, despite our love for her. Located in Northern Virginia.
