Why I need a new home

Fostered

My story

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

Meet Sailor! He's a happy, playful, and affectionate 8-year old Pit mix and weighs 55lbs. Don't let his age fool you, you'll see he has the health and energy of a younger dog. At home he is quiet and likes to either sleep or follow you around and get belly rubs. He needs a moderate amount of exercise, at minimum an hour-long walk daily, but ideally more high-energy activities like fetch or tug-of-war. The perfect home for him would include a fenced yard, with a family that has a fairly unchanging schedule (full-time work is totally fine!). He does well with some dogs, but is too reactive to go to the dog park or be in highly dog-populated areas. I'm rehoming him because he needs a quieter lifestyle than mine. I didn't realize that going on adventures with him to so many new environments would be worse for his anxiety, and I live in an apartment so getting him to a safe place to play is difficult. He's fully trained and non aggressive to people.
