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:

We got Luke as a rescue when he was only an 12 week old puppy, they said he was a lab mix but only grew to 35 lbs. he's healthy and athletic. Always super excited when we arrive home. Absolutely loves people. He's also always been somewhat food and leash aggressive to other dogs only (in particular our female pitbull who is much bigger but a big baby). Over the years we have just dealt with the problem with a simple verbal correction; however, fast forward he's now 13 and may have dementia. We're not 100% sure but that was one of the possibilities the vet mentioned which seems to track (he kind of spaces out - more so at night, another symptom is increased dog on dog aggression) he now just looks at her (the pitbull) and tries to attack. Like I mentioned although he's 13, he's still very agile and quick. Luckily he's only 40 lbs so I can snatch him up and put him in another room. At this point, we have to keep them completely separate. Not a good life but I'd hate to put him down!
