Story
Meet Ivan!
Age: adult
Weight: 175
Good with: kids, cats, dogs, chickens, horses, bunnies (such an animal lover!)
House trained: yes
Crate trained: yes, but I don't need one. I'm not destructive, and I just sleep in front of the air vent during the day.
Special needs: I'm need to be on a fish based diet, and I get drops in my eyes twice a day. I only have about 50% of my hearing and eyesight, but I'm the best boy!
As you can see, I'm a big boy! With that comes lots of love once I get settled in to your home and life. Please be patient with me the first little bit I'm with you, and I promise you won't regret it! My tummy gets a little upset with new changes, so I will need to go potty a bit more than normal for the first couple of weeks. If we can just get past the hurdle together, the rest of our lives together will be incredible! I bark a bit when new people walk by the fence, but I just want to make sure they see me, I mean no harm. I actually really love meeting new people while on walks and will happily say hi. I'm pretty much a show stopper wherever I go, since I'm such a handsome fella. I love going for car rides, but I need a bit of help getting in. Foster mom says sometimes I'll put my front paws up, and she just has to boost my booty, and other times, she has to put my front paws up for me and then boost my booty. Either way, I'll go on all the field trips with you! When it comes time to brush me, you can just put the attachment on the hose of the vacuum and go to town while I fall asleep. I'm a big ol' ham and with lots of fur, slobber, and most importantly, devotion to my humans. It's time for me to find my forever home, and if you know big breeds, you know we have big hearts! My devotion to my people is like no other, and if you end up being my people, I can't wait to show it to you! Do you need a big heart in your life?
