Story
Bernie is a three-year-old Rhodesian Ridgeback mix. I adopted her in late July 2019 from a rescue in Huntsville, AL prior to relocating to Washington state. Bernie is the MOST loving dog I've ever met in my life. She loves people and always wants to be around them. Every person she meets is her new best friend and she is extremely loyal to her pack. She craves human contact and cuddles like a real person. I refer to her as my little spoon all the time because she always has to be touching me in her sleep. She has quite the personality. She requires belly rubs every day and blisses out every time – see attached video for proof. Bernie has developed an increased reactivity to other dogs that's become more of a need than I'm able to provide resources for. I put her through a week of dog training with a specialist and saw definite improvements. But she needs further training and help. She needs plenty of outdoor time in a yard where she can run & play and needs to be the only pet.
