Desensitization in progress!<br/> Too much activity inside the home is stressful and pacing and chewing random things is SOOTHING. Beth prefers a quiet home (kids teenage+ only). One or two other dogs is just fine.<br/> Stranger danger results in grumbles until it appears SAFE, then all is well. Beth recovers quickly once she knows there is no threat.<br/><br/><br/>IDEAL HOME: Beth is learning how to settle in a quiet household with minimal activity. Because of her anxiety (she will come with sedatives to use as needed), she requires a home that is quiet, with minimal traffic. One or two dogs to play with are fine. Cats are negotiable. Kids at home need to be teenage-aged or older, and respectful of her space. She will need to build some confidence in order to be comfortable and happy the rest of her life, so experience in this area, or working with a POSITIVE trainer is a must.<br/><br/>Beth is a love who wants to be with her people. She needs someone to meet her where she is in life, understanding that it's not been the greatest for her thus far.<br/><br/>If you are interested in meeting Beth, please message me or fill out an adoption application:<br/><br/>https://www.australianshepherdsfurever.org/adoption-application<br/><br/>There are some additional fees: $20 microchip transfer fee to register and transfer him to his new furever family
