My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Acorn may be a big dog, but he’s a big softie at heart. He’s a little scared and unsure of new things, but with some patience—and maybe a few hotdogs—he’ll warm up and show you his loving side. Once he’s comfortable, this gentle giant will melt your heart by crawling right into your lap for snuggles. Acorn is looking for a kind and patient home where he can feel safe and loved. If you’re ready to help this sweet boy build his confidence, he’s ready to meet you!
