My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Bodhi came to me under special circumstances. One of my coworker's friends could not take care of him after moving in with her. I offered to take him in as a temporary situation. However, based on where I live and my lifestyle, I can no longer care for Bodhi. What I know about his past, is that he was taken away from his original owner, mistreated and emaciated, then returned to his owner many months later. He was never properly socialized with humans or other dogs or taught how to walk on a leash. Outside, he's a little skittish, which causes him to be unpredictability reactive. He needs a strong and diligent leader than can correct this behavior. At home, he's so incredibly sweet. He lays on the couch with me, snuggles in bed at night, and always has a wagging tail. He's not destructive when he has proper exercise and toys to play with. He does well in the crate for about 4-6 hours before he needs to go on a walk. He's not food aggressive from what I can tell, but he surely is food motivated! He looking for his forever home!
