🐾 Meet Snuffleupagus – A Gentle Giant with a Heart of Gold 🐾
Nickname: Snuffy
Weight: ~90 lbs
Breed: Lovebug Extraordinaire
Looking for a loyal shadow with four legs and a whole lot of snore? Meet Snuffleupagus, or Snuffy to his friends (which is everyone he meets!). At approximately 90 pounds, this big-hearted boy is packed full of love, affection, and just a sprinkle of clingy charm. If you're the kind of person who never wants to go to the bathroom alone again—Snuffy is your guy.
Snuffy is a world-class cuddler with zero concept of his size—he’ll climb right into your lap if you let him, and even if you don’t. He just wants to be close to his person, and will follow you wherever you go. Expect slow tail wags, big soulful eyes, and full-body lean-ins when he wants some love (which is often).
He is crate trained but does not like being confined. He will politely go to the door when he needs to go outside, but you must do your part to let him out. He’s also a gentle house guest who respects his space—unless his snoring counts as property damage. Because oh boy, Snuffy snores like a freight train coming through a tunnel… with no brakes… and maybe a tuba.
Due to some ongoing medical issues, Snuffy will need a family who’s committed to his health and well-being. He’ll require special attention and veterinary support, but in return, he’ll give you unmatched loyalty and the kind of love that fills a room.
Important note: Snuffy is NOT built for heat. Anything above 80° and he’s ready to melt. He must be kept indoors in a cool, climate-controlled environment. Think of him as a furry air conditioner who likes you more than summer. he does enjoy long leisurely walks around the yard stopping to smell each and everything he possibly can. He does seem hard of hearing, but will come running once you catch his eye.
Snuffy is a once-in-a-lifetime companion for a laid-back home with humans who appreciate a velcro dog with a gentle soul. If you're looking for a lovable lug who lives for your presence and will make you laugh every single day, Snuffy is waiting—with big dreams and even bigger snores.

Something to Consider:
Puppies don't train themselves
If you aren’t willing to train a puppy every single day, don’t get a puppy! It isn’t a one-shot deal. You have to be dedicated. And if you aren’t making progress – find someone who can help. Enroll in a puppy training class or hire a trainer. Most cities across the nation have some sort of availability for this kind of help and at different cost levels that would fit your budget.
Puppies are going to poop a lot and pee even more; chew on everything; bite everyone; scratch people and furniture; steal things; destroy something at some point; pull on the leash; not move at all on the leash; bark; cry; beg for attention; and the list goes on. You’re going to have to walk them, bathe them, pick up everything below waist height, buy new shoes, and most importantly: TRAIN THE PUPPY NOT TO DO THESE THINGS! Ultimately, it is your responsibility to teach your puppy that this behavior is unacceptable.
Puppies turn into dogs...
