Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Worf!
Worf is truly a gentle giant. He is a shy guy but very affectionate once he gets to know you. He would prefer a less hectic home. He isn't recommend to live with small animals or children as he gets mouthy and doesn't understand his size. He currently lives with a small dog and cat, he tries to play with both by wrestling with them. He has played with bigger dogs and has been fine. Worf loves to go on walks but needs a little patience as he tends to pull from excitement. He is 4 and would need someone who is patient and willing to work with him. We have had him for a year and a half and he has been eager to learn. While he weighs in at 85-90 he is shorter than you would expect. The vet has given the guess of a Mastiff mix but we have no idea.
Worf's adoption fee is $100 and is available in Waukesha, WI.
What is a "Courtesy Cupid"?
Courtesy Cupids are beloved pets that need to be re-homed because of varied circumstances. They are living with their current families, and are not part of the Canine Cupid foster system. Due to the third party nature of these courtesy postings, Canine Cupids makes no guarantee, and claims no knowledge as to the accuracy of the information provided regarding the pet and cannot be held liable for any misrepresentation or misunderstanding between the current owner and the applicant.
Applicants must fill out an online application in order to be placed in contact with the surrendering family. Canine Cupids will only be responsible for processing the application and screening any provided references as a courtesy to the family surrendering the pet. It will then be up to the current owner and applicant to then communicate, in as much detail as requested, the animals age, health, behavior, background, schedules, eating habits, sleeping habits, play styles or anything else that may assist in making a good match between the surrendered pet and the applicant. Because all our Courtesy Cupids are fostered in private homes, an approved application MUST be on file before proceeding with a meet-and-greet. The online application can be found at http://www.caninecupids.org/adopt-.html.

Our Thoughts on Visual Breed Identification
Visual breed identification in dogs is unreliable. For most of our adoptable Cupids we are only guessing at the predominant breed or breed mix. We think it’s most important is to get to know each dog as an individual! We then do our best to describe each of our adoptable Cupids based on their personalities in order to determine whether they’ll make good companions based on prospective adopters’ lifestyles. Dog behavior is not exclusive to breed — it’s a complex mix of nature and nurture.
