big fella

Big Fella is a gentle giant who wants nothing more than a life full of cookies. When he joined us here at ACL, this handsome dude was scared of everything and everyone, but with some TLC has become a very brave boy! He has been making friends at an incredible rate, though his treat taxes are very demanding! If your home is missing some large paws, sweet eyes, and a tolerable amount of slobber, come meet Big Fella today!
