Why I need a new home

Behavioral issues

My story

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

This sweet boy was rescued from being shot by original owner 2 years ago. He’s now roughly 3 years old. When we first rescued him he was shy but after a few weeks he warmed up and I was able teach him commands “sit” “stay” “come”and “shake” he is fully potty trained and will go to the door or stand in front of you and tap you with his paw! He also walks on a leash with a harness and doesn’t try to pull away, also he’s easy to groom. He’s highly intelligent and a fast learner. He loves to snuggle, belly rubs, car rides and being with his people.
All around he is a great dog except we already had 3 of our own rescue pups and 4 rescue cats before we got him. With so much commotion in the home of our highly energetic pups he sometimes miss reads that when people enter our home it’s not a threat and will nip there leg which is the herding instinct in him. He needs someone who has the time to train and exercise him, which I don’t have the time or capability to do.
