Atlas is a three year old non-neutered male. Absolutely loves children, cats, other dogs you name it he’s never even growled his entire life. I have had him since he was six weeks old and picked him out when he was three days old. It is with a heavy heart, but I am trying to find him a new home because I am unable to medically take care of him anymore. He suffers from cluster seizures about every three weeks And with him being 150 pounds and my husband traveling for work a lot it is very hard for me to manage on my own. I cannot afford medication for him, but I do not want to see him get put down. He is potty trained. He listens. He goes everywhere with us. We love him like a child but this is something that we have decided. It is time to do and hopefully you can find it in your heart to accept this beautiful boy into your home .
