What criteria are important to you when considering an adoptive family or home for your pet?: I would like Milo's future family to be experienced dog owners with a backyard and/or time for significant exercise.
Is there anything else you'd like your pet's new family to know?: In spite of Milo's issues with other dogs, he is SO well loved by all my friends and family because of his sweet and loving nature. He is the sweetest boy and I really think any family would be lucky to have him.
Why are you rehoming your pet (primary reason)?: Pet Behavior
Rehoming reason details (if necessary): My lifestyle as a 26-year-old young professional makes it very challenging to care for Milo because he requires a lot of exercise to be left alone. He also has pretty severe issues with dog reactivity, sometimes ranging on dog aggression. He has attacked dogs before, and as a result, I cannot let him off leash under any circumstances, which makes him getting proper exercise very difficult living in a city.
How long will you be able to keep your pet before you may need to consider surrendering him or her to a rescue?: Not an option, my pet will stay with me for as long as it takes
