Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Welcome to all my subjects! King Midas here… I was named after the legendary king because of my stunning color and ‘larger than life’ personality. I’m not going to whine about the horrible first years of my life because I am a true optimist and only look toward the future and the wonderful life waiting for me with a new fur-ever family.
I’m a big boy at about 125 pounds so I’ve probably grown as much as I will. My coppery-red coat is quite unique. I still have the attitude of a giant puppy so I am going to need some training to understand what is expected of me. I am big and strong and have never been around kids so the smaller ones might not be safe around me. I sometimes don’t know my own strength and would be very sad if I knocked one over and hurt them. It may take me a little time to adjust to being in a house but if you’re looking for a new furry friend to enrich your life, I might just be your boy!
From Moonsong: Midas is 6 years old, recently neutered and up to date on vaccinations. He will require an experienced owner, formal obedience training, a secure yard and no small children. He truly is a diamond in the rough and is just waiting for the right family to make him shine.
