Why I need a new home

Behavioral issues

My story

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


Gordo is an energetic dog who enjoys playing fetch for hours. He generally follows commands, is house trained and does not bolt. He does not enjoy loud voices and tends to be overly protective of the house by energetically barking at the UPS driver and truck as well as people walking by. Our other dog picks fights with him every few days as of late. I have not seen him look for a fight with our other dog but he stands his ground despite not being the alpha in the home. I can no longer take care of him and I am afraid that the fighting will continue to escalate. I have never seen him attack a person but he will take any opportunity to fight another dog outside of the fence. He really is a loving dog but my work schedule has not afforded me the time to train him properly. I do not know if I even know how. Because I want him to have a good and loving home I am willing to deliver him free-of-charge nearly anywhere. Preferably in the Western half of the US.
