Why I need a new home

Infant, young children or pregnancy

My story

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

Iggy is a wonderful and loving companion for his people. I have had him since he was a puppy and he was adopted through a rescue at the time. He is silly and smart and learned tricks very early on as a puppy. He also picked up house training very quickly. He still loves playing fetch and is very healthy for his age at 11.

We are looking for an experienced adopter without other dogs, and without children. We are rehoming him is because there was an isolated incident, where he bit my son who was crawling behind him. He is missing an eye, which does not usually affect him, but he has never lived with children until now. As some of these issues are not necessarily within his control and more related to his sight limitations and age, we have made the difficult decision to try and find him a home like the one he was used to these past 11 years without children where he functioned very well, and was thriving.
