Why I need a new home

Behavioral issues

My story

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


Duke is a 4 year old male border collie/chow chow. He has been a very good dog. He came into my home as a rescue after being a stray wondering the streets of Prescott. Three years ago (when I adopted him), I had a wiener dog mix who was 8 years old at that time (still have). Duke came into our home fine after 3 intros on neutral territory.

In Sept., I adopted a GS whose owner passed away suddenly. He is 5 years old and a very gentle dog. I have had GS my whole life. He is the most gentle GS I have ever owned. Duke has bit him three times (in three months). This past Saturday, he bit him requiring surgery/stitches. My trainers (two) and vet (who I have gone to for 17 years) have all said he should be in a home with no other dogs. I have SEVEN grandchildren. Four under the age of 3 and three between the ages of 7 and 11. Duke has never been aggressive to the children. Since this incident w/the GS, I think it would be better he be placed in a home w/no other dogs & kids.
