About Peter

We got Peter as a foster-to-adopt in October, 2025, but discovered he needs to be the only dog in the household as he is aggressive to other dogs in a home environment. We have 5 other dogs, so we need to find a permanent home for him. I don't have the skills to fix this issue. Returning him to Dallas Animal Services is not an acceptable option, so we are looking for help from a local rescue. He has gone to the dog park multiple times and has done well. Peter stayed a few days in Pet Paradise and did well. His report card is available to view. He is very affectionate with adults. He is a cuddlebug and loves to lie on his back next to someone. He always has a 'smile' on his face and a wagging tail and is happy to be around people. You can take food and toys out of his mouth with no resistance or reaction. He has learned to sit on demand. He is very high energy but can slow down with the right encouragement. He likes to play fetch, tug-of-war, and chase the flirt pole and will tire out quickly and calm down. Neutered male. Vaccines - Up to date. Fresh out of the city shelter and microchipped. Age - per shelter is 3 years. Kids - no observed experience with kids but super affectionate with adults. He is a cuddlebug. House training - about 70% there. He will not let you know when he needs to go to the bathroom, so you need to be proactive and get him outside before the need arises. He does appear to try to hold it in, and he does not do any marking or spraying inside the house. He is not destructive inside the house so no chewing of furniture or pillows or anything. He DOES know how to open doors with lever handles. Leash - he was a 1 out of 5. I used a shock collar, and after just three zaps at a low setting he improved to a 3 out of 5. Car - he rides well in the car Location: Dallas (75230)
