Why I need a new home

Infant, young children or pregnancy

My story

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


Max is a smart, kind, loyal, and well behaved dog. I’ve been his only owner since he was 16 weeks old. He’s now 11 years old. The reason I’m rehoming him is our small children. When we had one he was always super gentle with him. But now that we have 2 and Max is a little older he is just a lot more clumsy with them. He is never ever malicious but has on several occasions rushed around near the kids and knocked them over pretty hard. We’re about to have another child and 3 small kids + 1 skidish dog + 1200 sq ft house is not going to end well. It pains me to rehome my dog of over a decade but he needs owners that have time for him. To take him on walks, cuddle him, and just have time for him. Being a working mom of almost 3 and having my kids constantly being run down by an 80 pound dog is taxing.
