Meet Biggie, a five-year-old, Rottweiler mix with an extra-large heart to match his size. This big, goofy sweetheart is a total lover boy who genuinely believes he is a lap dog, and he will happily lean right into you for cuddles and affection.
Biggie is playful, gentle-natured, and easy to care for around the shelter. One of his absolute favorite activities is playing with herding balls, and he could happily spend all day pushing one around the yard! He does great in his routine, keeps a tidy indoor space, and is a fantastic travel buddy who does super well in the car. He is also very food-motivated, which makes making new human friends a breeze.
When it comes to home life, Biggie would thrive best as the only pet or alongside a dog-savvy female dog of similar size, as he has really enjoyed playing with large female friends in shelter playgroups. Because he is a big boy who can pull on the leash when he gets excited, he will benefit from a calm handler who is ready to practice gentle leash manners using positive reinforcement. He would do wonderfully in a home with dog-savvy older children (ages 13 and up) who love a big, affectionate companion.
If you are looking for a gentle giant to fill your home with big love and silly playfulness, Biggie is ready to meet you!
Biggie is neutered, microchipped, up to date on core vaccinations (bordetella, distemper, rabies), dewormed, and current on flea/tick preventative.
