Why I need a new home

Behavioral issues

My story

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

Bear was acquired two and a half years ago from a Humane Society and is 6 years old. He was given up for adoption because he was raised in a home with smaller dogs, who picked on him to the point he was injured by one of them, he injured the smaller dog, and was given up for adoption.

Bear's pros:

Wonderful/loyal companion, cannot have enough attention
Physical: loves car rides, catching frisbees, walks
Well behaved: knows commands (sit, come, shake, lay down, even knows his toys by name)
Gets along great with people young and old, and cats

Bear's cons:
Cannot be around other dogs (reason we are rehoming Bear, he needs to be the only dog in your home and not come in regular contact with other dogs)

We are a couple that has busy lives as travel professionals and a small business owner, and enjoy having people who have dogs over when we are in town. We cannot have Bear attacking other small dogs/their owners while visiting. Ideally Bear needs a home where he is the only dog.
