Does not get along with other pet

My story

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

Little Bear is a beautiful 3 year old, 27 lb dream boy who does the best head tilts and likes to be held like a little lamb.

He is mellow, snuggly, goofy, gentle, and generally quiet. He thrives around other dogs, and is wary-to-afraid of cats. It is very important to him that he be in daily contact with other dogs.

Little Bear is a perfect angel and I would keep him if I could! Unfortunately, my pre-existing dog, who is blind and elderly, wants to murder him - so it is not safe or fair for Little Bear or my other dog to continue living together.

I'm open to long-term fostering as well as rehoming. If you are looking for a snuggly companion for a year but not a decade, this could be a great fit for you!

Little Bear was originally rescued from a hoarding situation in VA in May 2025 and I adopted him a month later. I'm so proud of how he's flourished and adapted to living in a normal home. He is so resilient and open-hearted despite what he's been through!
