Farewell to Sasha

We returned Sasha to her former owners with a very heavy heart. We loved her so much but she was not a puppy for a senior's house. She is a dog that would be far better suited to a family with children that can romp and play with her. She tired us out as well as tired out Brandy and the cats. She only wanted to play but she kept biting Brandy's legs and ears. Brandy would yelp but never retaliate. Brandy spent most of her time on the couch where Sasha cold not reach her and she tried to keep out of Sasha's way. And she would jump on the cats whenever they got close.  However when our grandchildren were here last weekend, Sasha and the children romped all day and they all loved it.

We had to have three different foods and we had a tough time keeping them all separate as Sasha would eat anything and everything. She was always getting into the cat's food as well as Brandy's as she would push them out of the way to get their food. And it was such a hard job to train her as she loved being outside so she kept going to the door. We kept getting dressed and took her outside but all she wanted to do was play. (Our yard is not completely fenced in so we could not let her out alone.)

She bullied all the animals and if Brandy had a toy, she would drop hers and take Brandy's - just like a two year old that does not want to share.  LOL  Sasha was adorable and very loving but she was just sooo active and on the go constantly. The only rest we got was when she was in her crate sleeping.  We were getting very frustrated and tired of constantly babysitting. We had to keep our eye on her every minute. We called the former owner and she came and picked her up.  We cried as she went out the door and we felt really bad but we knew that Sasha needed to go to a family that had children.
