Why I need a new home

Landlord permission issues

My story

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


Diesel came to me when his previous owner died. He's about 4 years old. ***He is scared of men, I'm not quite sure what happened there.*** Thus, the primary owner must be a woman. That said, when he settled into my house with my boyfriend visiting often, Diesel completely warmed up to him and loves him. I believe it's an issue of men that are strangers. When at the vet, he gets muzzled and I request no male staff. Would do best with a fenced yard.

With the negatives out of the way, here’s the good. He is smart, eager to please, and affectionate. Sometimes he thinks he's a lap dog, though if it isn't your preference, he can be taught to keep off furniture. He doesn't jump on people, he gets on with other dogs (though he isn't quite sure what to do with himself at the dog park, he just kind of watches the other dogs), he walks with a loose leash. I'm having to give him up because of my landlords new rules on my month-to-month lease.
