Meet Raksha! ? Raksha came to our rescue at just 10 weeks old alongside her brother, who has since been adopted — but this sweet girl is still waiting for her forever home at 9 months old. She’s a playful, loving pup who absolutely lives for adventure! Whether it’s chasing the water hose, hiking a trail, or romping around with doggy friends, Raksha is always up for fun. While she gets along great with most dogs, she can be unsure around some females at first — but a shared walk usually does the trick to break the ice. Raksha is smart, treat-motivated, and eager to please. She’s done well with training, including having a great off-leash recall. She’s also a total cuddlebug who will happily snuggle up with you after a day of play. A few things to note: • She would do best in a home without cats. • Raksha has shown some resource guarding with food, so continued positive reinforcement training and structure around mealtimes will help her thrive. This special girl has been waiting far too long. If you’re looking for a loyal hiking buddy and a loving best friend, Raksha might just be your perfect match. She is located in Gadsden Alabama .
