Why I need a new home

Infant, young children or pregnancy

My story

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


Hello, this is Viggo. He's a 3 year old male. He is very well behaved and quiet. He is very sweet and friendly with people and dogs. He loves children and has never been reactive or aggressive in any way. He isn't destructive and is house trained. We haven't allowed him on furniture but we catch him on the couch sometimes.

I think he is a wonderful dog but my wife who is pregnant with our second finds his presence unbearable. His chewing (on toys) sounds and other normal dog sounds are becoming increasingly more difficult for her. So with a heavy heart I'm looking for a loving owner to adopt him.

Potential negatives: he isn't neutered (I was waiting until he was 3 for hormonal/health reasons). He's never been mated or used for breeding. He happily approaches every dog if allowed, but about a third of dogs don't like him. possibly due to him not being neutered. He hates squirrels. He can pull the leash while walking (usually to smell something) but generally walks well.

Thanks.
