Give it some time. Since he's a puppy right now, it's a good time to get to know him. A friend of mine started dating a guy who had a large blue doberman named Ruger. She has two little dogs like me. I was sooo afraid of Ruger, but he was so socialized and such a big baby. He would press his nose on the glass door and it would pull his lips up so it looked like he was smiling. He would try to sit in your lap. They had block parties, and all the people in the cul de sac would leave their doors open, pets and kids all over and we'd eat/drink/ be merry and he was the only well behaved dog! Kids would crawl on him, etc.
He later got a female and she was skittish, now SHE made me nervous, but never Ruger.
