My story

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

Hoss came to TGPR from the countryside where kind finders gave him shelter in the hot summer and got him the vet. He was severely underweight and near death when found. Fortunately, TGPR was able to rescue Hoss and with proper medical care, he has grown into a healthy and handsome guy. He has gained weight and has grown into a healthy boy. His eyes tell all, a sweet and gentle giant, Hoss is calm and a bit lazy, doesn't bark a bunch. He gets along with everyone, dogs, cats, horses, kids! Hoss is such a mellow guy, he is an old, gentle soul. He’s very chill and does like the outdoors, an occasional walk, and will play with you in the backyard. he gets along with all animals in foster's home, including the cat, but mostly just wants to be with his people. he gets very attached to his people and wants nothing more to be loved.
He likes to go for short walks in the morning and late evening. He mostly likes to sniff and zig zag on leash, but he doesn’t pull. He does like sniffing the perimeter outside but has quickly realized it’s nice to be in the AC. No accidents. He enjoys pets and will lean into you or paw you for more and does the PYR shake. He is slow to eat the kibble and eats the high value toppers on top but we are trying to get calories in him. He knows and recognizes his name Hoss. He mostly just slept while we were gone. He rides well in the car though but may need a little assistance getting in. He'd love to go to his forever home before the holidays.
