About BIG BOY a.k.a Great Boy Sweets

Meet Big Boy, a magnificent 95 lb German Shepherd Mix with an estimated birthday of January 10, 2022. Big Boy is more than just a large dog; he has a huge heart and an even bigger personality, overflowing with love to give! He and his brother were found abandoned, a heartbreaking sight that led us to bring them into our care. Now, Big Boy is ready to embark on a new chapter and find the loving forever home he truly deserves.

Big Boy is a lively, strong, and joyful companion who blossoms with ample space to roam and a devoted human to share his life with. He charmed everyone he met at our last adoption event, making friends with both two-legged and four-legged attendees, including children! While he's still learning to gauge his size, proper introductions with younger children are recommended. This sweetheart is a true gem who thrives on interaction, playtime, and affection.

If you're seeking a devoted partner for your walks, adventures, or simply a loyal shadow, Big Boy is your guy. He's embracing rescue life and patiently awaiting his perfect family. An active home that understands the needs of larger breeds and can provide him with consistent structure, plenty of exercise, and abundant love will be his ideal match.
