Eeyore, The Gentle Giant

Eeyore is a 3-year-old Anatolian Shepherd Blend with an old soul. He takes life at a slow, steady pace and would thrive in a calm, relaxing home where he can truly unwind.


Hi, I’m Eeyore!

Yes, like from Winnie the Pooh. No, I’m not sad, I’m just 130 pounds of love in a brindle-and-white cuddle suit.

Listen, I know I’m a big boy. Like… really big. But here’s the thing: I identify as a lap dog. I will sit on you. I will lean on you. Once I get to know you, I will lovingly invade your personal space like it’s my full-time job (and I take my job very seriously). I’m 3 years old, which in big-dog years means I’m basically a sweet, oversized toddler. I’ve got energy for walks and playtime, but I’m also 100% down to binge-watch TV with you and pretend your legs are a La-Z-Boy made just for me.

Now, here’s the deal:

I need to be your one and only. No other pets, please. I’m not great at sharing the spotlight, the couch, or your affection. I want you, all to myself. Is that too much to ask from a 130-pound snuggle monster?

I am housetrained, but I will need patience to learn your schedule, your house, etc. I prefer not to be crated as I had a very scary experience in one and panicked when trying to get out.

I would love someone who maybe works from home and I could lay at your feet all day and we could be besties.


If you’ve got a big heart (and maybe a reinforced couch), I’d love to meet you. I promise to be your giant shadow, your cuddle buddy, your loyal protector, and your emotionally dependent house hippo.

Love,
Eeyore 🐾

P.S. I’m seriously cute. Come see for yourself.
