About Beck

Beck has been waiting far too long for a proper home—almost three years and counting. He's a five-year-old mastiff/shepherd mix living in Roachdale, IN, with brains and heart to spare. Beck knows a handful of commands (sit, shake, down, 'place'), and will happily throw himself onto a blanket if you lay one out. Beck’s playful streak is usually on display—he’s a fan of cuddle sessions, belly rubs, and wiggling for butt scratches. He genuinely believes an 80-pound dog can be a lap dog, so expect him to test the theory. This foster favorite is loved by staff and volunteers alike. He had an adoption that went wrong and came back underweight and stressed, but has rebounded and is now off anxiety meds. If you have kids, Beck lights up around them. He does, however, have separation anxiety, which means he needs a sturdy kennel when left alone and a family that understands the adjustment period. Beck’s an escape artist and can clear a 4–6-foot fence with surprisingly little effort, so he'll need a leash when outside for a while. He tends to be nervous around unfamiliar men at first but has never been aggressive; patience and gentle introductions are key. Beck does well with most dogs after slow intros but isn’t suited for homes with cats. Beck is ready to love his person hard. He’s just waiting for someone to finally say yes. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
