FOSTER COMMENTS: 
Tez was an owner surrender because his family moved and didn’t take him along. Unfortunately, he had been neglected and was in major need of a nail trim and bath. He has gotten both and also got his teeth cleaned.  So Tez has a dazzling smile now :-)  He is a very sweet, gentle boy who loves to be petted and thrives on attention. Tez is a laid back guy and estimated to be 8 years old. He weighs in at over 130 pounds, but is on a weight loss regimen in his foster home.  Due to his large size we think Tez would do well with bigger children, 12 and older. His recent vet visit showed a clean bill of health!  Tez seems a bit cautious of new people at first, but once he gets a sniff and approaches them, he wags his tail and welcomes the attention.  He is house trained and sleeps well through the night.  Tez has impeccable house manners, isn't destructive and doesn't need to be crated when left alone. We think Tez would love to be an only dog as he really enjoys peace and quiet and revels in attention from his people.  He has been mostly disinterested in other dogs he's seen.  Being that he's spent much of his life being rather neglected, we would love to find him the perfect family to spend the best years of his life with!

Please consider giving this gentle giant a forever home. He is a sweet dog who deserves to have a 


furever home and all the attention he wants and truly deserves.
