Nash is 10mos old, weighs 68lbs, is intact, is up to date on his vaccines, and is not microchipped. Nash's guardian states:
"The days of going to the bathroom in peace in our household have gone away since adopting him and we love it:). If you get up to get a cup of water in the same room as him, he will come stand by the fridge. If you go to get dressed upstairs, he will come and lay on the floor, with his tail wagging, waiting for you to give him some loves. He truly loves humans and will be your best friend fi you give him a little bit of love. He truly is a man's best friend.
He had two separate incidents where he snapped on our other dog as well as my parents dog and caused some bad injuries to them. Nash is a snuggler and a companion, he will walk well on a leash, knows sit, paw, down, wait, and no and walks well on a leash. He knows to walk by your side instead of in front of you. Occasionally he will try to chase a bird or a squirrel. Nash will sit on top of you and lay with you for hours if you let him do so. Nash is currently living at my house still with our 7 year old dog, but cannot be trusted alone with her and has to spend a lot of time in the crate. "
Nash's guardian explains why she has made the difficult decision to rehome him:
"He does not get along with our current dog who is 7 years old. After several trainings and behavioral meetings, the experts suggest that Nash goes to a home with no other dogs in it."
Lunge/Bite Incident: On 5 May 2024, in Huntington Valley, PA, Nash bit his canine sibling at a boarding facility; the incident broke the skin; animal control was not involved; medical intervention was necessary. Nash's guardian explains:
"Nash was boarded with my parents dog for our wedding weekend. Early in the morning, the boarding place allowed for play time with dogs who were known to be okay with other dogs. During the free time in a room there were several dogs together. Nash was playing with my parents dog, Juba, who he spends every weekend with. Something occurred which is unknown to anyone, and Nash went after Juba. The only thing that stopped the incident, was a german shepard barking at the two dogs fighting. Juba was hospitalized for a day and received stitches, a cone, and a drain in his neck. Nash had superficial wounds to his face and a deep cut on his ear. "
Nash's guardian states the following regarding children: Nash lives with children (ages 3, 4, and 11), so his guardian recommends his living with children, stating...
"He LOVES any type of attention he gets. He is still a baby, so we are actively working on "gentle" and "no jumping." He doesn't know how big he is, so he can knock you down if you aren't paying attention!"
Nash's guardian states the following regarding dogs: Although Nash lives with a dog, his guardian doesn't recommend his living with dogs, stating...
"Nash was always fine around dogs, we brought him to dog parks where he would play fine and was actually the submissive type. But after the two incidents where he hurt dogs, it is a MUST that he go to a home with no other dogs per several professional opinions."
Nash's guardian states the following regarding cats: Nash hasn't lived with cats, so his guardian doesn't recommend his living with cats, stating...
"He met a cat one time and was actually scared of it. He would watch everything the cat did and monitor it. The cat he met was slightly aggressive and was not super friendly to humans or other animals, so it is unaware currently how Nash would react with a cat that is friendly."
