Gio, the Dog of the Day
Name: Gio
Age: Two years old
Gender: Male Breed: Italian Mastiff
Home: Torrance, California, USA
 
   Gio loves going to the beach, we take him to the dog beach in Huntington all the time. He's very friendly and loving. He is two years old and more active than anything, he weighs 160 pounds. He is the best dog! :)

    Gio is very loving and affectionate, yet the one thing he doesn't do is give kisses which I am actually kind of thankful for considering the size of his tongue! He's extremely active he loves to show off, when someone new comes over, he loves to grab his toy and just run back and forth as fast as he can across the back yard with it in his mouth. How this is impressive, I do not know, except that he runs pretty fast! He likes us to throw the ball for him, but he never wants to give it up. He is the biggest attention hog, if he's sitting next to you and you're ignoring him, he will put his paw on your lap and lay his head on your lap and nudge you till you pet him. When people see us walking him, they love to ask "Is that a dog or a horse?" He is very protective of the people he loves, but Gio is a gentle giant in every sense of the word.
