Dougie arrived as a stray on April 18, 2026, and at just over 2½ years old, this big, beautiful boy is still waiting for someone to truly notice him. Weighing in the 76–100 lb range, he may be large in size—but his heart is soft, shy, and incredibly gentle.
He’s been a little invisible so far… but once you meet him, you won’t forget him.
