We truly do not know where to start, when it comes to this boy. Affectionately, we call him "Rhino." He's one of the most loving and well-mannered dogs I have ever met. Despite being a very big boy, he walks great on the leash. He listens to "leave it," and has wonderful recall. His affection truly knows no bounds. He just wants to be pet and have his giant meatball head squished. He sits for his food, and sits and waits before going outside. He is crate-trained, sleeping the full night in his safe space. He is very eager to learn, and highly food-motivated. There is a lot that could be taught to him, he is very willing to please.

He is playful, but mindful, around other animals. It only took him a couple of days to ignore the cat, and on walks he will pass other dogs with no issue, even if they're barking at him. He is not a vocal dog. He is very relaxed, and quiet. He is truly not aware of his size, and tries to cuddle in your lap. To be honest, he's a big baby, and it shows. There are not enough good things that can be said about him. Someone is going to be very, very, lucky to have him as a part of the family.
