About Biggie

Meet Biggie! This big, social guy makes an impression right away—at around 80lbs, he’s hard to miss and even harder not to like. Biggie’s about 4 years old and is warm and friendly with everyone. He’s got a playful side and always seems up for a game of tug or a good chew on his favorite bone. Though he’s sweet with kids, his enthusiasm and size mean he’s best suited to a home without small children. Biggie is fully house trained, does well in a crate or left out, and has lived with other dogs—just be sure to give slow, thoughtful introductions if adding him to a multi-dog household. He really isn’t suited for a home with cats, as the chase instinct is a little too strong. He needs a home that will keep him active and engaged, with plenty of time for walks and learning new things together. Ready to make Biggie part of your crew? Ready to meet your new best friend?
