Why I need a new home

Found or abandoned

My story

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

Chuck is a sweet, sad boy looking for his forever home. He is 6.5yrs old (feb 12, 2015) and had a very turbulent lifestyle the first 6 years. He has some anxiety issues that manifest as excessive vocalization (he barks A LOT). He is about 14-16lbs depending on the day and is currently on 20mg of fluoxetine daily for his anxiety. He lives with 2 dog, 4 cats and 2 rabbits currently. He would do fine with dog savvy cats and other dogs who don’t have anxiety issues. I firmly believe in the right home he could be worked with and weaned off of the anxiety medications. He would be happiest in a lower traffic household as that is where he gets the most anxious and loud. He loves hiking, car rides and adventures but is also happy with 2 walks a day and blankets to sleep under. He is crate trained, meal fed twice daily and knows a myriad of other commands. Has been through beginner/puppy training, leash/harness trained a begrudgingly wears sweaters in the winter to keep him warm!
