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:


Our Elvis is the sweetest boy you’ll ever meet. But he doesn’t get along with our other dog and gets very aggressive with her and we just can’t keep him any longer. He will need an experienced AND PATIENT adopter because I believe he has some neurological issues therefore causing the aggression towards strangers and other dogs. He is trained to use pee pads but still poops sometimes on the floor. He is very attached to me and I think is the reason for the aggression towards our other dog. He’s resource guarding. Oh and he likes to bark…a lot! But most Maltipoo’s do. I would very much love for someone with no pets or children to adopt our sweet sweet boy but you’ll need to be very patient with him. His birthday was Dec. 14, 2022 and he just turned 3. This rehoming will break our hearts but we have to protect our other dog that we had first.
