Behavioral issues

My story

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

I got Bandit from my dads old boss and she had told me that he had gone through training and that his only problem
was his barking. That was around 8 months ago and he definitely has more problems than just that. He is super sweet and if he loves you, he loves you ten fold. My main issue with him is that he is very protective/ territorial over me. I can’t have people over to my house if he is inside because of this. He loves to play and swim in the lake and he’s great off leash unless something triggers him, and I’ve never had a problem getting him back to me and on the leash if that does happen. I believe he would make a great dog for someone that has experience with reactive dogs and has the time and patience to be able to work on his issues. He truly is the best most sweetest dog I’ve ever had, I just can’t give him what he needs right now. I think he would do great in a house with other dogs, and with someone who understands how his mind works.
