Details about rehoming reason (if needed): Where I use to live he had tons of land to run and play and be a dog. I moved down here almost 2 years ago after my husband passed away to be with family. I never took into consideration where I was moving to it didn’t have what he needed. With the neighbors dog attacking him 4 times and his barking now because he is scared the hoa here is getting a little nervous. I can’t afford to move again and I need for him to be happy and like I said to be a dog again not locked up in the house and only going for small walks because of the neighbors dog.
