Why I need a new home

Infant, young children or pregnancy

My story

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


We adopted Newton from the SPCA and unfortunately he is not a good fit for our family. Newton is a high energy dog and does ok with children but I would not reccommend he be with small children. We do not have the space for his zoomies and his zoomies can knock over small children. He needs someone that has more experience with dogs and is able to spend time to train the dog out of some of his bad behaviours. He jumps up a lot and he takes me for a walk and his strength is too much for me to manage. He does a lot of playful biting and loves playing tug of war with his rope toy. He needs more training on when it is ok to play bite, again with small children this is not safe for our family. He definitely is part hunting dog and would probably like long hikes and a yard he can run around in.
