Story
This is George. George is a Saint Bernard/Great Pyrenees mix and weighs apprx 115-120 lbs. For close to 2 years, George was being starved living off portions of table scraps (when he was allowed to eat at all). He had basically NO shelter from the elements. What little water he had was muddy and not drinkable. He attempted to get water off of a small tin roof when it rained that barely covered his living area (which was chained to a post and unable to move past approximately 5 feet). George would be punched and kicked by the father and kids of the family. He was severely underweight. He is a beautiful soul who simply needs understanding, patience, and time to adjust to a new environment. He will not be a lap dog or cuddle buddy. He shows great affection but also needs his alone time to just hang out and not be smothered. He will lay at your feet while you do the dishes and lay on the floor and watch tv with you. He tends to follow the temperament of the Pyrenees in him.
