Psst… hi! Xena here.
I'm basically a furry drill sergeant who happens to love you, excellent manners optional once you earn my respect, and yes, I will absolutely sit on command—but only because I choose to.
My notes say I'm a world-class cuddler, and I'd like that on the record.
I'm on the bigger side — which, if you ask me, is just more of me to hug.
Born and (almost) raised right here in San Diego.
Here's the thing — I can't tell if we'd truly click until I know a little about you. Sign in (it's free) and I'll size up your place, say hello to any dogs you've got — or be your very first — and give you my honest read on whether we'd be a match.
If all goes well, I could be curled up with my new pack by Labor Day — maybe yours, whether you adopt me or just help me get noticed.
Thanks for spending a minute with me. I'll be right here, tail ready, hoping it's you. — Xena

About Xena
Xena is a 3-year-old Belgian Shepherd Malinois mix weighing 75 pounds. She is affectionate and highly trained in sit, stay, down, off, guard, shake, crate commands, and will wait for permission before eating. She needs consistent exercise and mental stimulation, and while she gets excited and jumps, she responds well to training. Xena is house-trained, excellent with children and other dogs (best introduced in open settings), has not been around cats, and is exceptionally cooperative for grooming including tooth brushing, fur brushing, and nail trimming. She is ball and food motivated, though she has some crate anxiety from her shelter background that can be worked through with proper guidance.
