Why I need a new home

Behavioral issues

My story

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

Guinness is a Purebred Miniature Australian Shepard that came from a breeder in Alabama. He has been with our family since April 2020 and will be one in February. He is crate trained and is almost fully house trained and will only have accidents if not let out frequently.
We will miss Guinness a lot and tried hard to give him the attention he needs. He is a high energy and active dog even for his breed. He will need someone with experience training dogs and someone who can devote a lot of time for walks and play. He loves other dogs and will play for hours without tiring out. He is very smart and knows basic commands but also stubborn. With his strong herding traits he does not do well with small children. He has never been aggressive towards my children and loves to play with them. He does however still nip frequently and jump on them where they have fallen over. I think he would do well in a home with either no children or older kids who are comfortable around dogs.
