Why I need a new home

Behavioral issues (e.g. biting, aggressive, urination)

My story

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


Tux is a four and a half year old male pit bull. We have raised him from a puppy. Our home consists of two other dogs, a female Jack Russell and a male chocolate lab, that Tux gets along great with. He was raised with these dogs. I am unsure of how he will get along with other dogs. We also have a cat, which is outdoors currently outside, but used to be inside and Tux did good with him as well. We have children from newborn up to age 13 and he has always done great with them, but he has recently started growling/gtumbling at them when they get rowdy. He has never bitten or lunged at anyone, but with small children I would rather not take my chances. He is mainly an in door dog. We have a small privacy fenced in area that he goes out in a few times a day. He has never been out of the house without a leash or privacy fence (he can climb a chain link fence and is a master at finding an escape route). Overall he has been a great dog and would make a great dog to a home with older children.
