Dante needs a new home. Dante lived in an apartment until a week ago, and unfortunately that situation became completely and totally unsustainable. Dante needs a person or family who can give him significantly more mental and physical stimulation than he was getting. He is almost 6, neutered, and I can have his shots and heartworm test updated.
Dante is a true Velcro dog, he wants to pick a person and show them what love and loyalty mean. He loves to kiss and cuddle and lean on you for pets. He has been off leash trained, known basic commands, and is house trained. He doesn’t love a crate, and he is bossy with other dogs.
Dante can’t live in an apartment, full stop. He gets very anxious listening to people come and go from the other units all day. I think he would be ok in a condo or townhouse if there aren’t units above and below as well on 2 or more sides.
Dante can’t live with small children or rowdy boys. He does react aggressively to roughhousing/human aggression. He will throw himself into the middle of a fight between two humans, whether it’s a play fight, martial arts, sparring, an actual spat between you and a domestic partner etc.
If you are a person who doesn’t have kids, loves to hike or run or bike, or wants a dog you can throw a ball for twice a day, Dante is your guy. He does have an off switch, but he is all Aussie and really needs a job or a lot of outdoor play time.
Dante is in Tennessee, about 30 minutes outside of Knoxville. Message me or comment to get the ball rolling on meeting Dante!
