Meet Marciano! At 80 pounds, this gentle heavyweight proves that the sweetest hearts often come in the biggest packages. Once he's on the move, he's happy to enjoy a stroll, especially with a harness to help him get started. Warm days are made for taking it easy, and Marciano is perfectly content to slow down, soak up some affection, and save his energy for the important things—like making new friends. He's social with other dogs, enjoys appropriate play, and greets the world with a kind, easygoing spirit. If you're looking for a lovable big buddy with an even bigger heart, Marciano is ready to go the distance with you.
