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:

I adopted diesel from an abusive owner 5 years ago in August, he was about 4 months old then. Poor guy had never seen dog food. They had fed him apple cores and scraps. He is a happy boy. Good with my two girls. Just very Dog Reactive. He bit another male dog that I had and it was not pretty. Since then Diesel has been an only dog here with me. He needs a more experienced owner to train him out of this behavior. I love him and it breaks my heart to re-home him. But in loving him I want what's best for him. I work longer hours now than when I took him in and he deserves more attention. He is on Victor dog food. Loves his Nyla bones, plushies (has a sock monkey lamb he sleeps with) and LOVES fetching balls. He also loves to play keep away lol he will play tug of war. Knows Sit, lay down. Protective over home and lets me know when someone is at the door. I want him to be an inside dog as he has been and know he is going to a loving home. Included bark collar, chew toys, crate, food, bowls
