Gray - (Courtesy Post) Foster or Adopt Me! - Cane Corso and American Staffordshire Terrier Dog for Adoption in Lake Forest, California

Meet Gray. (Currently at the Hesperia Animal Shelter in Southern California)

Gray is a 3-year-old, 95-pound gentle giant with a playful spirit and an even bigger heart. He may not realize just how big he is, but he loves people and has done wonderfully with children.

Sadly, Gray hasn't always known the love and care every dog deserves. After repeatedly escaping a home where he was reportedly neglected, he found himself at the shelter with no one coming to claim him. Just when hope seemed lost, he was "adopted"--only to end up right back where he started after it was discovered he had been returned to the same home. Thankfully, Gray is now safe and getting the fresh start he deserves.

Despite everything he's been through, Gray remains incredibly sweet, trusting, and ready to love again. He isn't looking back--he's looking for a family that will cherish him, keep him safe, and make sure he never has to wonder where he belongs again.

Gray is an unaltered male, weighs 95 pounds, and is currently available for adoption. If you're looking for a loyal best friend with a heart as big as his paws, Gray is waiting to meet you.
