Why I need a new home

Behavioral issues

My story

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

I've had Arrow since he was 7 wks old. He grew up for the 1st yr of his life close to his litter mates, along with my cat Bow, who he loves to play with (the only cat I've seen him get along with because they grew up together). I lived in an apartment in VA where he would join me on hikes on my days off and socialize at doggie daycare while I was at work. By yr 2, I bought a house on 3 acres and lined it with Invisible Fence, giving Arrow an upgraded lifestyle with plenty of room to play, chase, and sunbathe while I was working. When we found out I was pregnant, we made the decision to move to NC for multiple reasons. We've rented a decent sized house, but it's unfortunately decreased Arrow's yard capacity. Arrow struggles with separation anxiety, which has only increased since transitioning back to primarily an inside dog. He has been prescribed medication for it in the past, but not consistently. He is such a loving pup, but I know he needs a home with more structure and space.
