Why I need a new home

Behavioral issues

My story

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


Having a previous Boston, I trusted he would be a good fit. His breeder communicated with me with photos and updates. By the time he came home, there was a full blown love affair...until I began to experience unexpected behaviors. He met many of my expectations, but others just got in the way. Maybe because he just has a nervous personality, and is fearful of unfamiliar things. He barks and
lunges at people walking by. He has frightened all the children in the complex. He's 2 in July and puberty is guiding him to randomly pee in the house. He is affectionate, on his own terms. With an experienced owner, he could be a dream!
I am fearful that a child could be terrorized by his aggression. I nicknamed him a Boston Terrorist. He has not bitten anyone except me-his people, and only once because he mistakenly thought he was defending himself.
He is a beautiful pup. Unfortunately I am not his "Person."
