Behavioral issues

My story

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


Gizmo is true to his doxie breed in that he is very protective of his owner. He would do best in a home with no animals and no kids.
He’s very active and loves fetch, walks, water, snow, boat rides, or anything that involves activities. He’s truly a wonderful companion.
He’s so cuddly and loves being scratched and rubbed.
He will do anything for a treat and knows “sit” and “down” and would likely learn more if trained.
He’s muzzle trained, crate trained, and house trained. He does not potty in the house.
We are rehoming because he has bit multiple family members and there’s now a baby in the house, which seems like a ticking time bomb.
He loves hard and is an incredible companion for someone or a couple who just want one animal to give all their love to. Unfortunately, we are starting a family and Gizmo is no longer happy with that. We love him dearly and will miss him so much, but he needs a more suitable environment.
