Why I need a new home

Human health issues (e.g. allergies, sickness)

My story

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

Dakota is a well loved dog, so please don't inquire unless you're ready to love & care for him well. Sadly, due to health issues, we have made the hard decision to find a home that is better suited to meeting our dog's needs. Dakota's strengths are: he is a happy dog, smart, responsive, great with people, incredibly healthy, great in the car, is not needy or clingy - just wants to share space with his people. Challenges: takes a long time to get introduced and acclimated to another dog, freaked out by fireworks & thunder, should not be homed with a cat or small critters. He gets taken on daily walks or runs and benefits from regular exercise, but be ready for excitability/barking when passing other dogs. He gets lots of compliments for being so handsome and he loves visiting with the kids on the playground. He doesn't play with toys but likes a good bone. He has never destroyed furniture and is perfectly house trained, overall a good boy.
