My story

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

Bronson is 6 year old fixed male pit mix, he's a quiet and rather well-behaved dog that's both housebroken and crate trained. Bronson is great with kids and people. He has shown food aggression towards a dog in the past and has had no experience with cats so would probably be best as an only pet. For 3 years he's had skin issues, vet 1st assumed it was a food allergy and switched to foods without chicken, we put him on Prednisone for almost 2 years. Now vet believes that it's reoccurring Malassezia Dermatitis which has needed antibiotics to clear up and then Apoquel to help with the itchiness. Recently he started urinating in his bed and has a follow up with the vet soon. If it turns out to be possibly kidney stones it will become a financial hardship on my family. Because of the accidents he currently has to be in his crate overnight and while I'm at work. We're both stressed and I'm at the point where I think it's best to find him a home that can handle this better.
