My personality

Why I need a new home

Does not get along with other pet

My story

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

Rex is a loyal dog to his owner. He has been largely friendly to my fiancee and our four children. He did bite one of the kids on the arm, it was a surface wound and didn't penetrate the skin. He gets jealous and can 'snap at' others and our other dog.

Rex is affectionate and loves to run. He needs a lot of time outside but he would be most happy snuggled up with his owner.

As a rescue dog, it's apparent that he has had prior issues with either people and/or other dogs. He would need to go through more training to be better around other dogs. He should not cohabitate with cats.

Because of his size and apprehensive temperament, he would be better in a home without small children.

He loves to bark at deer and howl along with ambulance sirens! He will make someone very happy... I know it!
