Meet Baz — big in heart and big in love.
Some dogs chase balls.
Baz chases belonging.
This gorgeous black and tan Rottweiler mix isn’t just looking for a new home, he’s searching for his person.
The kind of person who doesn’t mind a 45kg shadow following them around the house.
The kind of person who sees past the big frame and into those warm, soulful eyes.
Baz is three years old. He’s strong, yes, but gentle, too.
A quiet, affectionate companion who just wants to know where you are.
Always.
He’s not the zoomies-and-toys type.
He’s the sit-beside-you-and-listen kind.
Loyal, low-key and just a little bit sensitive, Baz thrives in peaceful spaces and connects best with humans who move through the world gently, like he does.
He gets along beautifully with calm, respectful dogs who understand personal space and enjoy a good nap in the sun.
Baz is not suitable for homes with cats, small animals, or livestock; not because he doesn’t like them, but because he’s got a strong build and a curious nose.
Training him is a breeze.
This clever boy is food-motivated and already knows how to sit like a champ.
With a few treats and some kind words, he’ll be eager to learn more not for the snacks, but because making you happy is his favourite thing.
Baz’s ideal home is one with secure fencing and a safe yard to stretch out, older children or adults who understand the boundaries that come with a big dog, and a calm, kind household that appreciates slow mornings, afternoon cuddles, and a companion who won’t just live with you, he’ll love you fiercely.
Baz may be large, but he’s not overwhelming. His presence is steady, comforting and full of a quiet love that settles in and stays.
If you’re ready for a loyal companion who will be your constant, your calm in the chaos, your couch buddy and your biggest fan, Baz is ready too.
Submit your application to Greater Shepparton Animal Shelter with clear photos of your secure yard and fencing, and let’s help this gentle giant find the loving home and human he’s been waiting for.
Because some dogs don’t just become part of your home, they become part of your heart.
