I got the impression he's going to need someone who will be around all the time, someone who works from home or can take him to work with them.

If he came to us he'd only be alone 4 hours max at any one stretch, but I'm worried he could hurt himself in that time. I'm hopeful that his issues will settle down once he finds the perfect home, but bringing him home with us is just not a chance I'm prepared to take with his wellbeing.

Hope that explains everything!

Just so you know I was just curious Some times dogs do 100% in a home that they feel is there home. My oldest dog is a good example of that. She was brought to the shelter I got her 3 times. I was her 4th home and I wouldn't change anything. I can see why some people brought her back, but I wasn't bothered by some of the stuff she did. She calmed down nicely once she knew she wasn't going anywhere
