Why I need a new home

Behavioral issues

My story

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


Duncan is an intelligent and energetic pit bull/border collie mix. He learns new tricks and enrichment games quickly and is already familiar with most of the basic commands. He benefits greatly from a routine schedule and is comfortable spending 8 hours in his crate while we are at work. He is a lovable goof ball that likes playing tug of war and spending time with familiar people.

We adopted him in August with little known about his history. Over the last four months Duncan has exhibited signs of reactivity and fear toward strangers. He is easily triggered by strangers and other dogs while on walks. Our home is in an urban neighborhood, and the high amount of foot traffic outside means he struggles to relax both inside and outside. We've been working with him to help him overcome his issues but due to a change in work responsibilities we won't be able to provide him with the attention he needs. He needs a loving family that can help him process his strong emotions.
