My story

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

Big Poppa is just that B I G, somehow he doesn't quite understand that the little dog looking back at him in the mirror is his self. If you were to ask him he would tell you he's a mastiff mix, but come on we know that's just not true. But there is absolutely no reason we necessarily have to tell him otherwise, and we don't think you should either! Pops here is a little older but just as spunky as all git, he is ready for a new home....where they understand that HE is in charge cause you know he's so "big". He isn't a dependent little dog, he has his own mind and you will not sway it, but he absolutely loves scratches and chewy treats. Going outside and dipping his "giant" feet in the tall tall grass is one of his favorite activities, watch how excited he gets and he will even do a little...I mean do a BIG dance for you...cause you know hes SOOOOO big ;).
