Behavioral issues

My story

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

Scout is a very sweet, loving boy who deserves a home that can truly meet his needs. Scout is an Australian Shepard mix who was adopted from the shelter in August on behalf of my retired parent in-laws. While he is a really good dog, it has become clear that they do not have the capacity to provide the level of training, structure, and management Scout requires. This decision comes from a place of love and wanting what’s best for him. Scout is affectionate and playful, loves playing with his balls and absolutely lives for belly rubs. He bonds strongly with his people and has a lot of love to give.
When adopted, the shelter disclosed that he has behavioral challenges. Despite our efforts to work with him, Scout is very reactive toward other animals, children and bystanders. Because of this, he must be the only pet in an adult-only home with someone experienced, patient, and committed to ongoing training. He is currently being tormented by raccoons and skunks in the mountain community.
