About Hoss

Meet Hoss, a charming Mastiff mix puppy with a big heart and a playful spirit. At four months old and 27 pounds when he entered rescue, he's already showing signs of becoming a gentle giant. His soulful eyes, floppy ears, and the cute white stripe across his nose make him utterly irresistible. Hoss started his journey in an underfunded rural Arkansas shelter, lacking the care every puppy deserves. But now, his story is taking a turn for the better as he settles into his foster home. He's all about playful energy and curiosity, getting along wonderfully with his foster sisters and enjoying every moment of family life. While he’s still working on potty training, Hoss is making great strides in his crate. With patience, consistency, and a lot of love, this clever boy is blossoming into a beloved companion. He’s eager to find a family ready for the fun, adventures, and playful antics that come with a big, affectionate puppy. Hoss will receive his final vaccinations on November 6 and is set to be ready for adoption shortly after. His first chapter may not have been ideal, but he’s looking forward to a vibrant future!
