Astro

My story

We acquired Astro about 5 years ago from a breeder located 3 hours from St. Louis, MO. He is very smart dog. He knows how to "sit" on command and signal us when he needs to use the bathroom or wants to go for a walk. Also, somehow he figured out how to open doors using the lever on the doorknobs. But, Astro only does it when he is very nervous or scared, I believe searching for one of us for comfort. Astro is extremely nervous to rain, fireworks, lighting and thunderstorms. He shivers and whines when under these events. I had a number of sleepless nights because of it. I have tried a number of options to calm him but none of them appear to work. I feel hopeless when it happens but I cannot continue anymore.. I am sadden to do this and I am going to miss him a great deal. But, I have to make this hard decision for my own health. Astro deserves a good home, with very patient and caring owner(s). His records are up to date..
