Meet Russell! At 83 pounds, Russell is a big, goofy boy with an even bigger personality. He might play the shy card for the first minute or two, but then his fun side comes bursting out. Russell loves rolling in the grass, happily greets new friends with tail wags, and has a knack for making people laugh. He's easy to walk on leash, rides nicely in the car, and even has a helpful streak—when his water bowl was empty, he picked it up and brought it over as if to say, "Excuse me, I think we have a situation here!" If you're looking for a lovable goofball with plenty of charm, Russell is ready to keep you smiling.
