My story

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

Billy Jim Bob is a handsome brindle boy who has been through a lot and is still learning to fully trust the world. At around 2 years old and 75 pounds, he’s strong, sensitive, and by nature of his breed, loyal and affectionate.

This boy is smart, food-motivated, and enjoys his chews and treats. Once he feels safe, he’ll lean into pets and even melt into a sit for some good butt scratches. He takes time to warm up to new people, but with patience and consistency, he shows his sweet and goofy side.

Billy Jim Bob is not a dog for a first-time owner—he needs an experienced adopter who understands big dogs with big feelings. He can get over-aroused in the kennel and on leash, so continued training and structure will be important to set him up for success. He’ll do best as the only pet in the home, in a calm, adult-only environment where he can decompress and learn at his own pace.

He may not be the easiest match, but for the right person, Billy Jim Bob will be a loyal and loving companion who just needs someone to believe in him.

Adopter Recommendations:
Experienced dog owner
Adult-only home (no children)
Only pet in the home
Willingness to continue training and behavior support

Could you be the patient, dedicated human Billy Jim Bob has been waiting for?
