My story

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

Bacon is a 5-year-old GSD, born in an accidental litter outside of Austin, TX. Unfortunately, as a puppy, Bacon was mistreated by someone in our life and has severe anxiety and some reactivity as a result. I will be moving into a home with young children soon, and I do not have the resources, time, skill, or training knowledge to best support him and ensure he is safe for the kids to be around. He loves my other two dogs, but he has displayed aggression with other dogs and some aggression with new humans (nipping).

Bacon would do great as an only dog to a person or couple that have some experience with reactive dogs and can give him the attention and support he deserves. He has a ton of energy and LOVES to play fetch, so a big yard would be ideal. He has a lot of anxiety on walks, but he has gotten better at running on leash in the last year. Bacon is full of personality, extremely loyal and loving, and goofy and playful when he feels safe.
