Dream is a gentle giant who hasn't quite realized her own strength. This powerful dog is a social butterfly who loves people and other pups alike, making her a star at the dog park. Her favorite place to be is right on top of her human, which is why she gets a little anxious when left alone—she just misses you too much! Dream also loves to mix and mingle with anyone and everyone she meets, especially if there's a snack involved. Walks are a highlight of her day, as they give her the perfect opportunity to see the world and all its friendly faces.
