Why I need a new home

Relocating

My story

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


Chief is a 5 year old male dog. The owner confessed that he rather give him up to a new home.

- He has been neglected and doesn't get even walks outside (very rarely) as the owner just relied on pads for him to go to the bathroom indoors.
- Still needs to be properly housebroken as the owner failed to train him and accommodate his needs.
- Lacks socialization with both people and dogs. Not microchipped.
- Can get overstimulated very easily if he encounters something new. Does get overwhelmed going outside at first mostly due to over excitement. He does have mild separation anxiety if his owner leaves him but he does stay quiet if he is left alone.
- Territorial when it comes to property as he does
- Needs a bit of tender love and care but can be very receptive to treats or positive reassurance with a bit of training. He does pull on a leash very heavily as the owner failed to leash train him.Can yelp and be very vocal once you do take him outside but quiets down after a minute.
