COURTESY POST: Texas’s Pawsport

Rise and shine — hi! COURTESY POST: Texas here.

I've waited four years for you, and I'm finally ready to promise my whole heart to someone who'll stay.

I'm the calm one (it's in writing). A quiet home and a patient hand and I'm yours.

I won't fib — there's a little grey on my muzzle. "Older" just means I'm past the wild puppy chaos and all in on cozy company.

I'm on the bigger side — which, if you ask me, is just more of me to hug.

I've been holding down the fort in Miami, hoping someone like you would wander by.

Here's the thing — I can't tell if we'd truly click until I know a little about you. Sign in (it's free) and I'll size up your place, say hello to any dogs you've got — or be your very first — and give you my honest read on whether we'd be a match.

With a little luck, Halloween could be my first one in a real home — possibly with you, or with someone you send my way.

Either way, thank you for seeing me today. That part mattered more than you know. — COURTESY POST: Texas
