Hi! My name is Vaquita and I am a 3-year-old, 50 lb spayed female. I am already housetrained and crate-trained. I no longer need to be crated when left home alone, though I need to have a crate available to me  as a safe space when I get anxious.
I have done well meeting men, women, and older children. I love being pet and snuggling up with my family—often involving me laying upside down on the couch! I will immediately seek affection from anyone I meet when we are at home; if I am on a leash away from home I need more proper introductions. 
I am reactive towards other animals and have shown aggression in interactions. I am currently working with a trainer to improve my coping skills around other animals, but I will need to be the only animal in my home.
I absolutely adore toys and can often be found holding a stuffy! Ropes for tug or a ball are my favorite!
I ride well in the car. My leash skills are a work in progress as I learn not to pull and how to engage with my handler even when there are distractions. I have already learned sit, come, and roll over. I will need a handler committed to continuing my training and providing adequate physical exercise. Could you be my family?
