Selective: Gets along with some dogs but not others.

What's the most endearing thing about your dog?:
Every time he sees anyone he excitedly taps his feet on the ground. I swear he knows when someone needs to be loved no matter who they are of your sad he’s stuck right up your butt doing silly things to make you smile. And will kiss you constantly if you allow him to. He just wants to be right there with you.
What criteria are important to you when considering an adoptive family or home for your pet?:
He needs to be crated while left alone he like to play with everything. Keep his food in a place where he can’t get it or he will eat the whole bag if given the chance. ABSOLUTELY needs to be monitored closely if at any point around another dog. Can not be with or around male dogs. He absolutely needs to be loved is the most important thing to me
Is there anything else you'd like your pet's new family to know?:
He’s got a golden personality he just needs a little work with his house training in order to be left alone. If something is not working out with him call me and we can figure it out together please just don’t give up on him.
Why are you rehoming your pet (primary reason)?:
Incompatible with Other Pets
Details about rehoming reason (if needed):
I’m home alone mostly and he is a lot bigger than my other dog. And they need to be separated at my house at all times. I live in a camper so it’s hard enough having multiple dogs. Let alone dogs that can’t be around each other. So he is crated a lot and he’s not living fairly in my opinion anymore. I can’t provide what he needs. As sad as that is he more than definitely deserves a good situation with a loving family who can provide him with what I can’t.
