Why I need a new home

Human health issues (e.g. allergies, sickness)

My story

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


Ruffus is a love bunny that would cuddle 24 hours a day if he had a human that could. We have a tradition that he jumps on my bed and I give him a full body pet to start the day. I have a large yard and chasing squirrels and balls is his full time job.
He LOVES other dogs of all sizes and tends to be the protector of all dogs, as he is often surrounded by many of them. He should go to a home that has another dog to play with.
Ruffus is a great dog and .over most people but he will also pick his one person that he will love and protect. That person is me in this household. Unfortunately I did not give him proper training, and now after back surgery I can no longer take him jumping on me or him herding me into a wall when he thinks he is protecting me.
It breaks my heart that I will have to give up Ruffus, but I am hoping that a loving person with experience with big dogs will find this profile and adopt this beautiful dog.
