Why I need a new home

Behavioral issues

My story

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

I love to play and I can keep up if you’re up for a run. I like to be around people, but I understand that my humans have to work so I do just fine in a kennel or crate. Belly rubs and Kongs filled with peanut butter are my favorite. I’m proud to say I’ve never had an accident inside and I know just what to do when I need to let it be known that I need to go; a nod towards the door or a nudge on the doorknob is all. I know I’m a handsome guy, but that doesn’t mean I’m perfect. I get along with cats, dogs, and humans big and small but sometimes my energy level makes me forget to be calm and I end up with the zoomies and fail to recall what are called “boundaries”. With some extra training and patience, I know I’ll be able to listen when I need to in no time. In my past, I lived a shelter life and my humans think I came from a tough home, so quick movements and loud voices can be a trigger for me to be scared or run. All I need is patience, love, and reassurance.
