My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Hey there! I have no idea why they call me Jumbo, I guess it's because of my big heart! I have been described as a "gentle giant" by the volunteers who have gotten to know me. I would love to find a place where me and my human can play and then take a nap! I love to cuddle :)
