Story
Varia is almost 9 years old. We have found her as a puppy on the street back in Russia. Unfortunately, my mother who took care of her died one year ago, and I had to take her with me to Boston since there is no other family member who could take care of Varia. But now I am going through huge changes and challenges in my life and realize that I cannot take proper care of my dog both financially and emotionally. I believe she had a very tough life before the adoption since she has anxiety issues - Varia is afraid of people and loud noises. But once she builds trust to someone, she becomes very kind and loving. Varia is not at all aggressive and will never attack anyone, the only thing is that she barks at people when they scare her. She is trained and well-behaved at home. Varia is not super active and required about 1 hour of walk every day (we usually walk2 times per day).

Story
Varia is almost 9 years old. I have found her as a puppy on a street adopted her. Unfortunately, my mom died a year ago, so I had to take her with me to Boston since I was the only person left to take care of her. But now I am going through big changes in life and I realize that I just cannot take proper care of poor Varia. I believe she had a very tough life before the adoption since she has anxiety issues - Varia is afraid of people and loud noises. But once she builds trust to someone, she becomes very kind and loving. Varia is not at all aggressive and will never attack anyone, the only thing is that she barks at people when they scare her. Overall, she is a healthy and moderately active dog, walking 2 times per day for 1 hour in total would be enough for her. She is trained and well-behaved at home.
