Why I need a new home

Does not get along with other pet

My story

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


Winston is a good boy, but due to a injury in 2021 his back legs don't work. He is having issues with our other dogs , some dogs He likes some He doesn't but he is aggressive to our other dogs and they won't play with him anymore. I lost 2 dogs, the ones he grew up with and now he is alone. I feel horrible that he stays in the basement most of the time alone as none of the digs will go down to play. I am looking for someone who would like a lap dog. He can't controll his bladder or poops but I use a drag bag and diapers and it's not much trouble. I would like to find him a better home where he could be happier. He is good with my dog sitter and her teenagers and seems good with small dogs and cats. But larger dogs seem to be a issue. I love him but I am not sure he is in his best situation here. I have never rehomed a friend before, but would be willing if I can find a better home.
