Well, what can we say about Stan the man?
He is just a huge lump of love and fun. Stanley is a well socialised and affectionate dog who will make a fantastic addition to his new home. He has a fantastic character is very well behaved when out and about and he is very trainable

Don't be fooled by his large size though. He is very much a big puppy at heart and is he is only just shaping towards adult behaviour patterns. His new family would have to be willing to keep up with his training and realise he is still very much a baby. They would need to be prepared for a few accidents until he was fully house trained and be willing to take him out every few hours to go to the toilet.



Stanley is fantastic with other dogs and would love a new home with canine company. He can be boisterous in his play meaning his companion or companions would need to be robust enough to cope with this. Having said that, he does have excellent canine manners and does back away if a dog has had enough of him. He is currently living with another dog in his foster home and they get along famously.



Stanley adores people and loves nothing more than curling up as small as he can get on your lap on the sofa. He is a very laid back dog who is very good to handle and take to the vets. He is good with dog savvy children but due to his size we would only be able to rehome him with children aged 8 plus as he could easily knock a smaller child over.

Stanley is very intelligent and already knows a lot of basic commands. He is learning to walk nicely on a loose lead as he does pull sometimes.
