MALE - Golden Lab/German Shepherd Mix

Brevard NC

Description

I have a fixed male lab/German shepherd mix dog. He was born on 9/18/2017. We bought him from a pet store in Hendersonville when he was 8 weeks old and have maintained all his health records. Lately he has been showing signs of aggression towards strangers that come onto our property and we haven't been able to break him of this. Particularly delivery people, the trash man, etc. We have 3 children, 3 other dogs (none of whom share this need to protect) and I do not worry about him at all with anyone here. Only strangers that confidently come onto our property. Unfortunately we have not been successful in breaking this behavior and as a result we need to rehome him. He is a super lovely dog otherwise. 100% potty trained, comes when you call, sits on command, will go when told to go lay down, gives paw, etc. He is a good boy, a very good boy, except this need to over protect. He has snapped at two people. Not bitten, but I cannot afford to let it get to that point either. When we leave our property and take him to Lowes, the park, walks... he does fine. So I really think he needs a new environment and hopefully someone who can 'train' him in this new environment. He has never been around cats or bunnies. Only other dogs and chickens. Been around kids with no issues ever. He is approx 70 lbs of pure muscle. He is a strong boy and loves to run and play and get lots of pets.
