About Bailey---Frisbee Dog

I am looking for a home for my 19 pound Mini Aussie. He is 6 years old and has always been with me. I am not able to care for him properly anymore, after some bad luck, including an injury that has left me switching between a cane and crutches. Bailey is a frisbee dog...completely obsessed with his Kong frisbee since about 18 weeks old. He is an amazing dog, who has my heart and this hurts more than I can say, even though I know I have no choice and that he will be better off with someone who can better accommodate such an active dog. He does need an alpha. He knew from the beginning that he has me wrapped around his little paw and he has taken full advantage. I did a training class when he was a puppy and we learned the very basics that he has since unlearned. He was always good at the dog park until a day when another dog went after him. I think he got spooked and now he barks and lunges at other dogs. He is awesome with all people but does like to jump up to say hello. He is potty trained and sleeps in his crate every night. Bailey loves (yes, he loves it...lol) wearing a belly band if I am going to be gone for 12 hours. I can tell him it is time to put on his pants and he comes over and puts his hind towards me. He is up to date on his rabies vaccine but the vet messed up the paperwork so he is not licensed. I don't want him to go just anywhere. He would be the best companion for the right person!!!
