Why I need a new home

Does not get along with other pet

My story

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

Our sweet boy loves to play fetch and run - a place with a big yard would be perfect! He is so handsome, well behaved, and loving. He loves to cuddle at night if you’ll let him hop in bed with you! He is 7 months old, 42 pounds, and will grow another ten pounds possibly - he loves to eat!

We love him and he loves playing with other dogs his size - he can get quite rambunctious!

It’s important to know he does have a food aggression issue - we have tried to feed him separate from other dogs but a place where he is the only dog might be best as he can get really territorial over treats and toys as well. He needs a stern hand to help him learn not to snip, bite, or snarl - something Aussie’s are known to do when they think someone is trying to take their things! An experienced dog owner is important to help him learn to share.

We never did formal training so that may help - and he does know “sit”, “shake” and “go to your bed”. He’s a sweet boy who deserves a loving home!
