WEB MEMO

Big heart + big smiles = Big Rob! He’s a gentle giant who loves socializing, aced his behavior assessment and knows come, sit and stay commands like the back of his oversized paw. The perfect calm yet enthusiastic pal for long walks through the park or snuggling on the couch, Rob still has a dash of puppy playfulness in his heart and he ducks and bows and flings a toy around with the best of them. He’s a strong leash puller at first but as soon as business is taken care of he slows to investigate all the sights and scents of the neighborhood and he passes other pups with a wagging tail and a song in his heart. Rob loves to be close to his people, shares his toys with a smile and enjoys snarfling treats and nothing will lift your mood faster than a few minutes in the company of his happy-go-lucky-go-anywhere-you-go energy. Step up and claim 93 well-behaved pounds of family dog and a great new BFF today, Big Rob can’t wait to meet you!
