Story
Beans is a family dog we've had since a pup. My daughter no longer wants him and I can't keep him due to restrictions where I live. He has been registered as an emotional support dog, but his hyperactive behavior around ppl scares them. He loves ppl. He is an inside dog who loves the outdoors and being able to run freely. I am unable to do this due to my living situation. My kids are a little older, so they do rough house with him but he is good around younger kids and other dogs. He needs to be with someone who loves hiking and swimming. A closed in area for him to run and play, (he does not like to be tied up in the yard).
