My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Nitro was a rescue dog that we got at 4 months old. We kept him for 6 months, but he is proving too high energy for our lifestyle. He does not do well home alone all day. He can be very destructive when he needs exercise or attention. It got to the point that we had to keep him in a crate all the time and that is not fair to him. Nitro needs a home with lots of attention and LOTS of exercise. He does ok with other dogs, but is rambunctious and loves to play. He will chase and play-bite other dogs, but hasn't shown aggression towards them. He does well with other large-sized puppies, but not small dogs or older dogs. He hasn't been around many cats, so I can't give much information on that. He does well with kids above the age of 10. He is too rowdy to be safe around younger kids. He is very food motivated and learns tricks quickly. He is very good at "holding it" and will not go in his crate. However, he is not good at asking to go out and will go to the bathroom inside the house.
