Why I need a new home

Behavioral issues

My story

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

My husband and I got our dog as a puppy from a petstore (I know. Bad choice.) He has all his shots and is freshly neutered as of 3/17/2021. His birthday is July 24 2019, he’s lived with cats almost his whole life. He is very loving, adores playtime and is not at all mean, but extremely anxious, high strung, and has bitten children. He's aggressive with his food and will snap at people. We have had difficulty crate training him and he still cries at night and early in the morning, but generally sleeps pretty well. He refuses to potty train in our little apartment (because of his anxiety) and my husband and I are at the end of our rope and are ill prepared to handle a puppy with his specific temperament and needs. He needs a very patient family with NO small children and plenty of time to spend walking and training him. He enjoys squeaky toys and small meaty treats. He does love to snuggle and he’s not just a mean dog. But his “chihuahua issues” have proven to be too much for us.
