Watson was one of the Mastiffs rescued from the group of 9 that was abandoned at a home in Springtown, TX. He is a distinctive fawn gentleman with a very regal look. Watson is showing a lot of progress in his foster home, although he is still shy and cautious in new situations. As long as he's not confined to a small area, he does well when home alone and is not destructive - he loves chewing on his Nylabones. Watson lives with 2 Mastiff and is getting along with them just fine. His personality is too timid for a home with kids so an adult household would be best.
Families adopting one of the Springtown Mastiffs will need to understand that these dogs never lived in a house prior to coming into GPMR. Most of them startle easy at new noises and in new situations. They have lived in harsh conditions and their adoptive families need to be slow and patient while they get to know you and settle into a new routine. These pups have a whole new world ahead of them and need a wonderful family to show them how great life CAN be!
Watson is being fostered in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area.
