Listing Description
Sadie is an incredible dog. She's sweet, funny, and has a ton of personality. She loves walks, belly rubs, being with her people, and playing fetch and tug of war. She is very people-oriented and will snuggle in your lap if you sit on the floor with her.
She tolerates our two cats. She does chase them if they run. She likes other dogs when she can approach them. We occasionally take her to a doggy day care and she has a lot of fun running around with the other dogs.
Sadie is scared of loud noises. Last year for the 4th of July we gave her Sileo gel and that helped her get through the night.
Behavior:
Sadie has separation anxiety. We have worked extensively with her on this, however there are still challenges. She will not stay in the backyard by herself so we must accompany her to go potty. Sadie has resource guarding issues. She will get aggressive with my husband and me and our cats if we get near her with something she deems high value. She will lunge, snarl, and snap and has recently bit me. She will not stay calm at the vet for even a simple exam, so our vet requires us to give her gabapentin before a visit.
Our vet prescribed Prozac to help with the anxiety and it has helped a lot. We've also been through two 8-week training courses dedicated to improving her confidence and reducing anxiety. We've also met with a dog behaviorist to address the issues and made any necessary changes to our lifestyle and home. We have done everything in our power to give her a calm, happy home but ultimately our home is not the right place for her. We are devastated about this. She will be an amazing dog for the right family.
Medications:
Prozac, 10mg daily
Cetirizine, 10mg daily
Composure Pro Chews, 1 chew daily
Sentinel and Bravecto monthly
