Astro

Astro is a beautiful big boy. He is a very loyal dog to the people he trusts, and looks to the people he knows for reassurance when he is feeling unsure. Astro is very friendly, but would like slow introductions with new people he meets as he can be quite shy. Since coming to the shelter, Astro has come such a long way and has let down his guard. He is incredibly handsome and soft, like a big cuddly polar bear and it is very rewarding to watch his confidence grow day by day. Astro loves to play with/in water and may jump up on you for some cuddles when he’s happy to see you.

Astro likes his daily walks and despite his strength and size, he is very well mannered on the lead. He would like his new family to be home more often than not, as he loves having the company of people.

Astro has previously lived with other dogs and cats, however he would prefer to be the only dog of the household. Ideally his new family will have previous experience with large-breed dogs. Although Astro would not suit a home with young children, he would be okay with older dog-savvy kids.
