Why I need a new home

Behavioral issues

My story

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

Hi! I am wanting to find a new, experienced home for Nugget. He is 7 years old, but he has many puppy-like tendencies. I adopted him 3 months ago, but I was unaware of most of his behavioral issues and I am inexperienced in dog training. I want Nugget to go to a home that is very loving, but also very experienced in training older, stubborn dogs. Nugget loves to sleep for most of the day and wants nothing more to be close to his owner at all times. He loves to go on walks and play outside, but he was never socialized so he is aggressive towards other dogs. He will also be aggressive with me if I am leaving the house and is not crate trained.
Nugget has separation anxiety and goes to the bathroom inside the house quite frequently. Most of the time it is when I am gone, but if I am home and not giving him attention, he will spite pee/poop just to get my attention. I would love for Nugget to go to a home that could could give him training and attention that he needs.
