My story

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


Kevin is very friendly with people, but aggressive towards other dogs. When new people approach, his tail wags so hard it looks like it will sprain, and he is 100% full of love and an eagerness to make friends. Unfortunately, Kevin was attacked by a dog when he was a puppy, and has had severe aggression issues towards other dogs ever since. The mere presence of other dogs sends him into a tizzy, and there have been incidents in the past when he has injured other dogs. He therefore needs a supervised home that has no other pets. (His reaction around housecats is unknown). He is very well house trained, and is not destructive at all towards indoor property - with the sole exception that he occasionally likes to nibble on his bed/blankets. He is also very well trained to not eat the food you leave on the counter/table - 95% success rate at leaving human-intended food alone. He has moved domiciles often and is therefore well accustomed to changing surroundings. Plus, he can sit!
