  Personality: 
Couch is your big bro type. He's playful and fun loving, and always optimistic. He loves to be useful and will help anyone in need. He's attentive, caring, and overall friendly. He is quite the swell guy, but he requires others to go slow for him, as he isn't so bright and usually can't keep up with the well-educated type. He tries to understand as well as he can, but will always ask for a person's point to be dumbed down for him. He knows all too well about his weakness, and though he doesn't make any large attempts to better it, he doesn't shy away from any issues it causes.

  History:
Couch was part of a litter bred for profit, born in a Northern area where using the breed as sled dogs was common. Once he was old enough, he was ordered and shipped far away to his new home, a rather nice family who had found this little Mal to be too adorable to pass up. He was young and fluffy, but even though he was only a baby, he was already quite large for his age. He loved his family, each member to bits, but he hated the warmer climate, very different from what he had already been used to. The family gave him his name because of how often he would curl up on the couch in the same spot, sitting just in front of a fan.
Little Couch didn't take long to grow, and the family began growing more irritated by his large size and clumsiness, how often he would knock objects off tables and push people over in excitement. They decided they could no longer keep Couch in their home, and with heartfelt goodbyes, brought him to shelter so he could have a chance at finding a new home. They did love him, and he loved them back, but he was too much for them. He never really understood why they had left him at this strange and unfamiliar place, but he believed it was the best for him, trusting his people even as they gave their last wave and disappeared through the shelter doors.

  Extra information:

• He prefers his human form over his dog form, feels more comfortable to him, less fur and less hot.
• Hates clothing, and wears a minimal amount in order to stay within the human's modest expectations.
• Occasionally underestimates his size.
• He loves the upper-center of his back scratched.
• No matter who you are, he'll grab you up and cuddle on a couch with you to watch tv, though he takes up most of the space
• He works at the farms, or well, visits often to help out. He doesn't much care if he's paid or not, as long as someone appreciates the work he does for them. He tries his best to keep a distance from the animals, as he knows he has little self control at the scent of entertainment, and tends to keep to the fields and heavy lifting jobs.
• Hearing music makes him uncomfortable, antsy, and whiny.
• All he wants is a partner who likes to relax with him, cuddle, someone who he can really be close to and bond with.
• He will rarely seek out another for a romantic relationship, but he is not against it. He's just... too dumb to realize his own or someone else's feeling, or doesn't think about the topic often. Maybe if you hit him in the face with a book you'll get somewhere.
• He now has three puppies with Maya. Two boys and a little girl.
