Why I need a new home

Pet medical expenses (e.g. vet procedure)

My story

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

Miso is an incredibly sweet boy with some issues. He was approximately 7 or 8 when I adopted him from the shelter, and he's now about 9 or 10. I love him to pieces, but behavioral issues in apartment living after some changes in my circumstances as well as some upcoming medical bills that I cannot afford mean I am forced to find a new home for my sweet son.

As I said, Miso is from the shelter, and his background before that is unknown but doesn't seem to have been good - he very much does not get along well with other dogs, so he would demand to be the only pet. He takes a long time to warm up to people, but becomes very strongly attached and socially anxious - despite my attempts to train him, he barks nonstop when I leave the apartment, leading to seriously bothering the neighbors. For this reason, he definitely would do best in a home where someone is usually home to keep him company. He also needs multiple teeth pulled, which I cannot afford.
