Dozer was found as a stray in rural Georgia. This BIG boy is just the sweeties love bug. He still has his puppy k9 teeth so we suspect he around 4 months old and weight in at 33lbs. With him being such a big boy we are guessing his breed is a Masstiff/Lab mix. Its hard to tell but maybe some American Bulldog or Pit mix in there too. But all the photo matching applications say he looks like a Mastiador. Either way this boy will not be small full grown and we are looking for someone who wants an EXTRA Large dog when fully grown!

Dozer is completely loving confident puppy with me. He is almost 100% housetrained and will tell me when he needs to go outside. When i am unable to watch him i will put him in the crate (even if i am just taking a shower) because he is a puppy and has attempted to mouth my furniture. Dozer loves to play with toys and will entertain himself by playing with stuff toys. I have been taking him into the office daily and i have seen a complete different dog. He is still loving and confident with me but is complete scared of people coming in and out of my office. He will follow me around like a shadow.  He is particularly scared of men but has warmed up to several of the wives who come into my office. When he first meets a dog on the leash he terrified and just tucks his tail and wont play. Once my dogs come home today i will know how he does with other dogs once he free to play with them in a yard. He has no reaction to cats and would rather avoid them. He will need continued socialization with all aspects (dogs/people) etc. to remain friendly and confident as he grows but he is 1000% dedicated to his humans. He bonds quickly and trusts completely. He follows me off leash like he was trained professionally. Im not sure if he was abused in the few months he wasn't with me but it seems like it. He doesn't have very much confidence. I am still working on leash training him and so far he can go about 1 block...when people approach me on a walk he hides behind me. If they continue to push past me and try and pet him i have heard him growl 1-2 times. Im not sure if he protecting me or just very afraid of  them.  Dozer ideal home will be with adults who will do some training and socialization. Also as an only pet or with another confident dog that won't overwhelm him.
