Why I need a new home

Infant, young children or pregnancy

My story

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

I rescued Porter from a young couple that had posted him on Facebook. They were no longer to care for him so I brought him into my home when he was four months old. He just recently turned a year on December 16th. In my family's settings, we have two young children and two other dogs. Porter is extremely food driven, which can be an issue around young children. He is very intelligent on his commands, but lacks personal boundaries around children when food is in the setting. For example, when anyone in the house is eating he has a hard time understanding the personal boundaries and will continue to be food driven. He is not aggressive, but will not respect personal space. This can be an issue around the two young children. Unfortunately, through the hard work we have not seen improvement in his behavior around this has caused the children to be scared of him. He is very loving and energetic. He has not shown any signs of aggression since being in my care.
