My owner gets really frustrated with me because I hate other dogs and can't leave the house until it's dark outside thanks to this. I was attacked by a dog at some point and I'm scared I will get hurt again... I am super sweet and smart. I love being a lap dog and being cute after I do something I'm not supposed to. I also love hotdogs and Peanutbutter“
