Why I need a new home

Infant, young children or pregnancy

My story

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

We rescued Reo in 2021 and had significant anxiety over everything. Over the past few years, he has overcome SO MUCH and is the most loving loyal pup ever. He loves walks, going to the dog park, chewing bones, playing with his stuffed banana and chew ropes, and spending time in the backyard. However, he still has a lot of anxiety around children (including my 7-year-old) and it has become too hard to keep them both happy and comfortable without asking my son to not act like a kid. I will be honest and say that he has starting grumbling and snapping at my son when he gets too worried and scared.

Because of that, ideally, he would be in a home with one or two super loving adults who can spend all the time with him that he needs! He would be less anxious and happier with a family without children or other pets. Reo really is my best friend, and while this absolutely breaks my heart, I know that this will be what is best for him and his anxiety.
