A Story From Work/Opinions?

It sounds like she just hasn't had the kind of socialization she needs. You could maybe foster her for a bit and see if a little NILIF training and socialization will bring out a better personality. You might have to use a soft muzzle when working with her for a while, but she doesn't seem beyond what a little training can do by your description. If she doesn't fit in your family you could hopefully get her to a point where you can adopt her out.

You guys are right. I will try with some of the breed specific rescue groups. She is posted on the bulletin board at work. And I suppose that if they make the decison to euthanize her, I should give her a chance and try and take her.

Oh my goodness!! What a sad story. I feel so bad for this little girl. I already have two Chi's and they're so territorial that they don't get along great with each other. I see you live in Tampa. My brother lives in Tampa in an apartment and he can't have pets. Oh! how I wish I could take her. Please keep us updated on her. I'm very interested to hear the outcome of this story.

Her aggressive behavior is probably because she doesn't feel well and other factors of what she's had to go through.
