Meet Rigby – aka “Big Rig”

This handsome one-year-old Akbash mix is all legs, love, and loyalty. Neutered, up to date on vaccines, and ready to roll into his forever home!

 

Big Rig is the total package — a mix of goofy, gentle, and pure sweetness. He’s got the zoomies down to an art form but can quickly settle down for belly rubs and head scratches. He adores kids (like *really* adores them), loves all dogs, and hasn’t met a human he doesn’t like.

 

He’s not aggressive — just a little soft-hearted and sometimes timid — but once he trusts you, he’ll be your biggest, most loyal shadow. Cats? Well… he thinks they’re fun to chase, so a feline-free home is probably best.

 

Rigby’s a smart boy too! After just a couple of weeks of training with his SpotOn collar, he now lives fence-free and sticks close by like a pro. He loves the great outdoors but also enjoys joining you inside for snuggles.

 

Now, here’s the real story — his girlfriend has decided she’s done with the relationship and wants to keep the house . Rigby’s taking it like a champ, though. He’s ready for a fresh start where he can finally love freely without looking over his shoulder for a grouchy partner.

 

One look into his big brown eyes and you’ll understand why we all call him *Big Rig — the sweetest boy on the road to his forever home.* ❤️

 

Currently in foster care and ready to meet his people
