Giants can have a heart of gold, you know. And nothing proves it better than this woman who owns a 125-pound white doggo! She found him in Italy, where she had gone to visit her mother, and he has been lighting up their lives ever since.
In Italy, she met a farm worker who the doggo was living with, but he didn’t really want him. When he saw her, he told her that, ‘We don’t want this dog. You can have him if you like, and that sealed the deal.
She was back home with a brand new guest who soon became a valued member of the family. They have named him Brandon.
A Big Appetite and Playful Spirit
With all the love and care that he received, Brandon soon grew to love everyone in his new family. Speaking of growing, he grew so big that he’s almost the size of a lion.
But a very adorable fact is that the fluffball does not know how big he really is; he seems blissfully ignorant of his stature and spends his day leaping from one couch to another.
‘It’s like the floor is lava for him’, says his owner with a laugh. He also loves to slide under his mom’s work desk, ignoring the fact that there is a space constraint.
He also eats a lot; well, with his size, it’s not that surprising. He eats three cups of dog food each for dinner and lunch, and sometimes his mom likes to tie up snacks in a towel in a bid to play a ‘game’ with him.
She puts the food pellets in a towel and rolls it up, leaving the dog to find them between the folds of the towel. She says that this technique keeps him distracted for a while when she’s working. ‘But not for long’, she adds.
Brandon’s Incredible Instincts
He’s only a year and a half, but it’s impossible to guess that by looking at him. He is a huge, huge baby. One of the most heartwarming facts is that once, he kept waking up his mom in the middle of the night by licking her face.
The woman obviously wondered what was going on. But after a while, she realized that she was having seizures at night. So, Brandon helped his mom detect a health hazard. More power to you, big old Brandon!
He also loves to play with the two older brown dogs that his mom already had, and they love him like their own little brother. All of them together make up a big happy, happy family.
Much love to you guys, stay like this always!
