Why I need a new home

Fostered

My story

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


River is a sweet, intelligent boy who unfortunately grew up in an abusive household. We recently rescued River from his situation, and although we love him dearly we simply don't have the room and time to give him the attention he deserves. He's still young and thus has quite a bit of energy, but is also wicked smart and very good at learning new commands. He has a bit of separation anxiety, and we believe the previous owners used food deprivation as a punishment as he guzzles any food placed before him down fast enough that he sometimes makes himself sick. He's a HUGE cuddler, loves fetch, and generally gets along with any human and dog he comes across.
