Why I need a new home

Busy schedule

My story

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

Benny will be 7 y.o. in February. He's great with cats, because he fears them. He does have a history of resource guarding, so another dog in the home is not recommended. He's on point with all basic commands of sit, down, stay, come, then some cute trick ones too. He is also crate trained, but breaks out when he's crated somewhere unfamiliar, so he will take a little while to get used to the new surroundings. Benny is shock collar trained, and is wonderful off leash. He enjoys/needs lots of exercise so he's a great hiking buddy.
He didn't get socialized a lot the first 6 years, so he has some anxiety when meeting new people. While he has not bitten anyone in the last 10 days, he does come with a bite record. He's only bitten when his personal space has been invaded by others he didn't trust. He thrives in a quiet home, with at least an hour of exercise everyday. He also comes with a personal trainer from Calm K9 to contact for help in continuing his training.
