Career Change Puppy, "Ava"

Sometimes weird things just happen. I was on a walk with my trainer, minding my own business, when a dog in a nearby car leaped out of the window and landed right behind me and then bit me…hard!! Now I am afraid dogs are going to fall from the sky and get me whenever I go out. So, I tend to be reactive around dogs I don’t know.

I was going to be a service dog, but now I need to learn how to be a beloved companion to someone who will be patient and kind while I learn to trust again. 

My name is Ava and I am a 7 month old spayed female mix breed (collie x shepherd?) and I weigh about 32 pounds. I love to play with other dogs I know, and would like my own yard to play in. I really, really love children! I know lots of commands and enjoy being around my people and cuddling.
