“O Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou Romeo?” Hold on Juliet — We found your Romeo!

“My name is Romeo, and I am looking for the happiest ending to my love story:  finding my foster or forever home.

I am a big, handsome boy  with mild energy.  I do enjoy my walks and want to go everywhere my people go.  I am prone to being anxious in new situations and with new introductions to other animals.  I may be big but I’m just a softy at heart.  So go nice and slow with me.   I have grown up around children and do well with the kiddos. 

My ideal home?  A home that gets what it is like to live with a Gentle Giant, big baby  like me.  I want a home where my humans are home more often than away.  A quiet, chilled home without a huge amount of traffic is best.  It’s not that I don’t like socializing… I just want my world to be easy going.  I am being surrendered due to no fault of my own.  My current family has to move and I am unable to go with them. This is how they describe me, “Incredibly loyal, will go with you till the ends of the earth…”  But it does take time for me to get comfortable and settle in.  Can you help me find my happily ever after?”
