DESCRIPTION
Hi, my name is John. I'm a big dog, but I'm a little shy at first. New people and new places can make me nervous, so I like to take my time and observe before I feel comfortable.
Once I warm up, though, I'm gentle, loyal, and affectionate. I love being near my favorite people and showing my love in quiet, steady ways. With patience and kindness, I'm a devoted companion who brings calm and comfort wherever I go.
I'm John - big in size, gentle in heart, and slowly but surely full of love.
