My personality

Why I need a new home

Relocating

My story

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


I adopted Rex 10 years ago. The shelter said they didn’t know anything about his background and that he was 5 but vets said he was a puppy when I got him (like 1 or 2). He’s a very energetic and friendly guy. Loves to cuddle and loves to play with people. I’m currently moving into a smaller place and I don’t think it’ll be a place where he would thrive been as energetic as he is. I feel really sad to have to re-home him; but ultimately it’s for his own benefit. If you’re interested in adopting him I hope you have the time and affection he needs; he seems to have some sort of ptsd and separation anxiety. So he needs a home full of love and patience.
