“Name’s Big Red. Yeah, I know — sounds like a gas station trucker or a cheap cinnamon gum. But nope, I’m a dog. A very large, very red dog. Big muscles, tiny head — basically if a T-Rex and a potato had a baby, that’s me.
Listen, I’ll be honest: I’m stressed. The shelter life isn’t exactly a spa retreat. But give me a home, and suddenly I’m that weird uncle at Thanksgiving — loud, jumpy, a little inappropriate, but somehow everyone still loves me.
I like people, probably more than I should. I’ll throw my entire 80-pound body at you just to say hi. Other dogs? Eh. If they’re calm, fine. If they’re hyper and up in my face, I’ll pretend they don’t exist — or wish they didn’t.
I’m basically a walking contradiction: I look intimidating, but really I’m just here for snacks and nose boops. So if you want a dog who’s equal parts lovable goober and existential crisis in fur form… congratulations, you found me. Big Red. Come adopt me before I start doing stand-up full time.”
