We now have “Mr. Biggy Bear” available for adoption.  “Mr. Biggy Bear” was rescued by our friends at Washoe County Regional Animal services.  He was found roaming the streets of Reno w/out any identification tags.  He is a healthy, male, purebred Old English Mastiff.  A great disposition and needs to be with a couple who lead an active Ranch style of living.  He prefers being outside, although could slowly be acclimated to inside.  He seems to have an issue with being confined in small spaces. He’s a sensitive guy and needs time to adjust to new situations.  He is playful, requires leash training, is loving and very sweet.  He’s about 160 lbs., approx. 4-5 yrs. old and is a lot of powerful Mastiff to handle.  We are looking for experienced Mastiff folks, adults only because we do not know his history with children.  He could potentially be integrated with other large dogs within reason.  Here’s a picture of our “Mr. Biggy Bear”.  He is quite a character and will make that special family/couple or single person an absolutely wonderful companion.
