Fiona 's Story

Fiona is a giant, goofy girl with a heart of gold. She weighs about 130 lbs, and her DNA test came back 100% Mastiff. Everyone who meets her absolutely falls in love with her sweet personality.<br/><br/>She loves to play and then settle in for a good nap. Fiona is friendly with other dogs, but due to her large size we recommend a home without small dogs. She sometimes doesn’t realize just how big she is. This is actually the reason she is being rehomed. In her previous home, she nipped a much smaller dog during an interaction. While it’s believed she did not intend to cause harm, the smaller dog sadly did not survive.<br/><br/>Following the incident, Fiona completed a 10-day board-and-train evaluation where trainers reported she was a great dog and showed no signs of aggression. Everyone who has evaluated her agrees it was a tragic accident, but because there are two very small dogs currently in the home, her family feels it’s safest to find her a better fit.<br/><br/>Fiona is potty trained and knows the commands “sit,” “down,” and “go to bed” (which means going to her bed and staying in place). She’s a smart girl, but when she gets very excited she can have trouble containing herself.<br/><br/>On walks, Fiona can become excited when she sees people or other dogs. She has had some leash training but would benefit from continued training with someone comfortable handling a strong dog—she has a lot of muscle behind her! Because walks can sometimes be a challenge, a home with a fenced backyard would be ideal for her to run and play.<br/><br/>Fiona is such a special dog and would make the perfect companion for someone looking for a big cuddle buddy to watch movies with on the couch or play tug with in the backyard.
