Why I need a new home

Infant, young children or pregnancy

My story

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

Hello I have only had Brownie for one month now and have to rehome him because my youngest daughter is still scared of him. (She apparently is scared of dogs) He was purchased from a Craig’s list ad. He’s 5 years old approximately. Previous owners stated he is up to date on shots. I have taken him to the vet since I’ve had him and all blood works looks good and he’s pretty healthy. Brownie is in need of someone who can spend more time with him. He loves attention and rubs. He gets really sad when he has to be in his crate. He is potty trained but will use the restroom in the home if he’s left out alone. If he’s is a play pen in the home he will not use the bathroom there. I have 3 young children and he gets along with them pretty well. He loves long walks, and short car rides. He is unable to have children due to Cryptorchidism, or retained testicles. Getting him neutered would be a fix for this issue.
