Dingo needs a single dog home
Dingo is an energetic and very intelligent 4 year old German Shepherd/Doberman mix. We have had him for 3 years, but he shows displaced aggression and reactivity towards 1 of our other dogs. We have been trying through multiple different training methods to stop this, but nothing has seemed to work. He will make a great loyal companion for you, but I cannot rehome him to anyone with dogs.
