Age: 2 years

Weight: 65 lbs

Size: Large

Good with Cats: Unknown

Energy Level: Medium. She likes to play with other dogs, and gets the zoomies for short periods of time, then comes in and lays down.

House-Trained: Yes, when taken out on a regular basis.

Crate-Trained: Yes, we use the command - Kennel UP. We use treats when she is hesitant about going in. She may whine for a bit, then quiets down.

Rides well in a car: Yes

Good with Young Children: Unknown, but she does have a good temperament.

Good with Strangers: Yes, but she shy at first

Shy or Confident: Angelina loves attention, though she is somewhat shy and nervous in new situations or meeting new people.

Barks: She has barked at people walking in front of our house, but doesnt bark a lot.

Apartment Qualified: She may bark at people coming & going in the hallways.

She cannot be left outside without a secure fence. I was told she did climb the fence at her previous location, to get to where her person was, she did not try to run off at that time.

Angelina is a love bug, who craves attention. She does get excited and jumps up on people, which I have been working with her on. When she comes to me, she either has to sit or stand calmly, I then reward her with lots of praise. I have been working on manners, and this training will have to be continued in her forever home. She truly wants to please you, and is treat motivated.
