Why I need a new home

Behavioral issues

My story

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

1. Chef was a rescue dog 9-weeks old from a puppy mill
2. 8 yrs old - lives inside & and is best in a fenced area attached to the house
3. He's very affectionate with grown people & teens
4. He's anxious around young children & other animals (His anxiety around kids makes him very cautious around them)
5. Chef has been aggressive toward other animals a couple of times
6. Chef eats well Royal Canin Adult Dog-food & treats
7. Chef loves to play with toys for a long time
8. A fenced area is a great environment for Chef, because of his anxiety around other animals/dogs. Fences are a safe in his environment. He can walk on a leash comfortably, but would still be anxious around other animals/kids
9. Can sleep in a crate open or closed - loves to sleep on a couch or bed
10. Chef is an easy dog to love
11. He is very comfortable with teenage and adults
12. Chef is in Statesboro now, and we live in Jefferson GA
