His name is Big, but he's medium sized if you ask us! Only 64 pounds, that's nothing in doggo world!
Big is a very handsome 2 year-old German shepherd. He loves to ‘smile' and seeks out affection by flashing those pearly whites! Understandably, not everyone gets that his teeth come with good intentions and … his smile can be a touch off putting to some! 😁
This guy is a master of walking himself, he will carry his leash with pride but be warned → this does not count in on-leash areas. ❌
🥰A loyal dog to the core, this guy loves his humans! He will always be nearby and will dutifully wait at whatever door you left until you return. When you come back, he'll let you know he's behind the door waiting.
He has done well with dogs around his size, but has not yet been tested with dogs much smaller than him.
Big has met some kiddos and while he did ok, he is unaware of his own strength and definitely needs further training and supervised interaction.
Big has not been exposed to cats. He does well with larger animals, but does like to chase birds.
🐕🦺He does well on a leash, but certainly loves to explore and will get tangled sometimes.
Big is a crate expert! He happily puts himself to bed and hangs in there overnight.
🚽House training you ask? No issues here! Big knows to keep his business outside!
Other in-home behaviour? He can be a bit of a thief and more training is needed. So… fair warning… keep the garbage locked up and food off the counter when you're not there.
🧤One more note: Don't worry about spending a bundle on dog toys, this guy thinks rags, leather gloves and plastic bottles are the best! He will throw them in the air and entertain himself in adorable fashion.
