Why I need a new home

Infant, young children or pregnancy

My story

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


Looking for a loving home for Scruffy. He is roughly 5 years old (unknown birthday, he was a rescue). We are looking for a new home for him as we are starting a family and Scruffy has become less and less tolerant of kids that we worry it could become a safety issue. He does relatively well with other dogs (he has 2 dog siblings), he does resource guard, and he can assert dominance with growls and body language when meeting other dogs. He would be a great guard dog, he RARELY barks unless its important. He doesn't do well with cats or other small animals as he has a high prey drive (and has killed a rabbit before). He's only attempted to nip one person in the years we've had him because he thought they were an intruder. His recall isn't great and he wanders, so he can't be let off leash unless it's a fenced area. We would be happy to do a trial to see if he is a fit for you
