My story

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

If you are a lover of extra-large dogs, you are going to love me. My name is Alfredo and I am a gentle giant who, through no fault of my own, finds myself in the market for a new home. Here's the thing, though -- if you adopt me, you also get my best friend Goose. You see, we are a bonded pair and must go to a home together. But we are both great dogs and anyone would be lucky to have us! We have been together our whole lives and are absolutely inseparable. We are both very sweet and gentle. And while we love each other, we also love people. We both like to lean against our favorite people and soak up all of the affection and pets that you have to offer. We pretty much do everything together, including sleeping, eating and walking. We really like to cuddle up together at nap time. As we are both long-haired beauties, we are going to need regular brushings and the occasional grooming to keep us at our best. And the advantage of having two dogs is that we always have each other to play with when you are busy. So if you have room in your heart and home for two super sweet large dogs, stop by the shelter so we can meet. But I know you are going to love us!
