Meet Brinkley – the 60-pound snuggle bug with a heart as big as his paws!
(And don’t worry—he’s still working on getting to his healthy goal weight of 70 lbs, one belly rub and treat at a time!)
Brinkley is about a year and a half old and has already lived through more than most. Found as a stray, painfully thin and starving with every rib visible, it’s hard to believe that this gentle soul was once so neglected. But with some TLC and good food, Brinkley has bounced back beautifully and is ready to show the world just how loving and loyal he can be.
And let’s talk about his looks—because Brinkley is downright handsome. With a striking grey coat and a big ol’ blocky head that just adds to his charm, he looks like a GQ house hippo. His cuteness is next-level, and his soulful eyes seal the deal.
He’s playful, sweet, and respectful of his space—he doesn’t tear up his beds or blankets and treats his cozy spots with care. Brinkley is also a toy collector, and you’ll often find him proudly hoarding his favorite plushies like prized treasures.
When it comes to food, he prefers to enjoy his meals without interruption, but once his bowl is empty, he has no problem with you picking it up. Easy, polite, and a total gentleman once dinner’s done.
Brinkley is a certified lap dog in his heart, even if he takes up the whole couch. He’s needy in the best way, always craving love and closeness from his people. His affection is endless, and his loyalty runs deep.
He is up to date on all his vetting and is ready to find the family that will never let him go hungry—or unloved—again.
If you’re looking for a goofy, affectionate, toy-collecting best friend who will stick by your side through thick and thin, Brinkley is your guy.
Let’s get this sweet, handsome boy into the loving forever home he’s been waiting for.
*Breeds are our best guess. All the dogs are 100% Rescued & that's the best breed.
