Pluto is a big guy with an even bigger heart! This super sweet and friendly boy has never met a lap he didn't think he could fit in. Despite his size, Pluto truly believes he's the perfect cuddle buddy and would happily snuggle up next to you after a busy day. Pluto is looking for a home where he can burn off all his energy with walks, playtime, and plenty of adventures. Once he's had his fun, he'll be more than ready to settle in beside his favourite person for some well-deserved cuddles.
If you're looking for a big-hearted companion who is equal parts playful and affectionate, Pluto might just be your guy!
