Description:

Hi! My name is Goliath!

If you are looking for one of the largest Saints you have ever seen, then you are looking for me! I'm 194 lbs of love and would love someone to cuddle with. I don't get on the furniture, I don't beg, I'm potty trained and know the command "move". I wasn't treated that well in my last home, so my hair needed a little trimming. We decided on the lion’s cut – but it will grow back before you know it! Below you will see before and after photos.

I don't do so well with small dogs (and probably not cats), but I do get along with the other Saint I am living with now. However, I would most likely do best as the only dog in the house. I walk well on a leash; going for walks is becoming my favorite pastime. Obedience training would be good for me too. It would give me a chance to work on my manners and learn how to behave around other dogs.

If you’re looking for a mature, big, lovable dog that loves to be with his owner, then I am the dog for you!

Thank You!

When you adopt a pet from Midwest Animal Rescue and Services, your adoption fee covers: Microchip and registration, Core Vaccines including Rabies, Distemper and bordetella, age appropriate heartworm testing or FeLV-FIV testing, sterilization, heartworm/flea-tick prevention and deworming while in foster care.

Long Distance Adoptions: Animals who are not fully vaccinated and altered are not eligible for long distance adoption. We require a meet of the pet prior to adoption, which means coming to MARS. We do not transport to potential adopters.

How to learn more about a pet: Complete the application (click on the button above) to start our process for adopting or fostering a MARS Pet.

Adoption fees are non-negotiable and can be paid by cashier's check, money order or credit card. We do not accept personal checks.

Post Adoption: Any issues that arise after adoption are the full responsibility of the adopter after the finalization of adoption. We highly recommend Pet Insurance. Adoption fees are only part of the expense of owning a pet, so we ask you to consider the costs for the life of the pet before adoption. We recommend pet insurance.

Pet Breeds: The pet you are viewing is a rescued pet which is most often from an animal control facility or Shelter partner. The breed(s) listed are our best guess and are in no way guaranteed.

If you choose to DNA test your adopted pet, test results may vary from company to company and our breed guess may not be reflected in those results as it is just that, our best guess without knowing a pet’s full history.
