Cockatiel Girl, I don't know that I fully understand your reasons or need to rehome the puppy. Jill, I'm not sure that there is any point to trying to convince someone to keep a dog that they have already decided to rehome. I think at this point the best advice that can be given her is in the nature of how best to go about the rehoming process so that this poor animal is not passed around a bunch of homes or worse yet, dumped at a shelter or pound.
Cockatiel Girl, you appear to be quite young and you mention being in school. Anyway that you can post a flyer at school about the need to find the puppy a new home?
The problem that I have with asking only for a $5 adoption fee is that this then may render the new owners to view the puppy as expendable because they have not invested much in him. Do you see? You mention you had the puppy to the vet so you must have spent some money on him already. This alone would justify charging a higher adoption fee. Is he current on his shots? Has he been neutered? If so, this will make it much easier to find him a good home.
Spread the word among your friends that you need to find him a good home. But like Jill (Felisdomesticus) has said, if there are behavior issues with your puppy, you will need to tell any prospective owner of them or the dog will likely be returned to you or banished to a shelter or pound.
How long have you had this puppy, if I might ask?
Btw, those are lovely photos of your other pets and of you.
