Why I need a new home

Behavioral issues

My story

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


Hello,
I am looking for a home for my almost 2 year old rottweiler he is a really good dog, but unfortunately he just doesn't seem to get a long with my 5 year old he nips at her one of them broke the skin. All of them are related to having an item and her taking it or walking close by. He does not have those issues with me I can take things from him tell him to drop it and he listens and I can take the item and he doesn't have any reaction. My older son also has no issues. Besides these few incidents my 5 year old him can co exist like nothing happened, but I am unable to know what items he will react to its been objects and food that it just doesn't feel safe to have him in our home anymore. Even the smallest nip can cause her big harm. He knows how to sit and give paw. I dont want to see anything bad happen to him because he is a good dog just needs a different environment. On leash he does need a little work with pulling a face harness has worked though and stopped it.
