Why I need a new home

Infant, young children or pregnancy

My story

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


Tango is an adorable 4.5-year-old, 13-pound, Lancashire Heeler mix. He is a smart and loving tripod who loves cuddling, following you around, playing with toys, and sniffing in nature. Tango loves to "work" to earn treats. He knows several commands and tricks. Tango is in great overall health and is potty-trained. He takes glucosamine and Prozac daily. Due to Tango's past where he was injured and left, he can be fear-reactive. He has nipped at us in the past while we were learning his triggers. He has improved SO much over the years with support from us and a behaviorist. Unfortunately, with a new baby in the home, he has become stressed and uneasy, despite intervention. We know he would thrive in a home without children. Tango would do well with an experienced dog owner who can keep up with his training, and give him lots of love and attention in a calm environment. Tango has so much love to give, he just needs his unicorn family! Serious and experienced adopters only, please.
