Story

Gus is a 6 year old red heeler. He currently resides on about an acre of fenced in back yard next to the pool where he chases dragonflies. He does come in and kennel during the night when needed and obeys those commands. Gus has a behavior issue of resource guarding if left alone. He is great with other dogs until there is food involved. When we feed and remain outside he keeps his distance and obeys owner. When we feed and walk away he likes to run others away. I have noticed him laying next to the only remaining bowl of food or the water bowl guarding. He did get aggressive with our other male (they are all neutered/spayed) and it was not a good outcome. He needs to be in open areas to have his own space im afraid. Hes a good boy. Obeys commands like sit, recall (Gus, come Gus;), stay, and kennel.

Story

I need to unfortunately rehome my dog. This has been an incredibly difficult decision for me but I feel I cannot meet his needs anymore. His name is Harvey, he’s around 2.5 years old and is a mixed breed pit bull. He is loving, will keep you safe, snuggle up against you while you sleep and make sure you are warm at night. He loves his car rides, his treats and his toys, but with many great qualities he also has issues too. He has pretty bad anxiety to the point he will whine if you close the door behind him, he has yeasty ears so he has spray medicine for his ears and steroids as well to help him not scratch them raw. I am also moving far away where I won't be able to take him. What I am looking for is a family who will give him the love and care he deserves. Ideally a family with kids so they can play together until the sun goes down and snuggle up against them when it's time for bed.
