Tall Titan, is a strong and remarkable Warrior, a dog that has fought to be alive and walking today on this earth. He has willed himself to come from the depths of pain and starvation to become this handsome boy that you see right now. He is our Super Hero Pup and our example of a creature that has never given up even when it would have been easier to just go to sleep and never wake up. When Titan came to a rescue lady’s house that Critter Cavalry knows, this boy was malnourished and just a skeleton of the puppy he should be as a Great Dane. The lady has a love for the Danes and she asked CCR to please take him into our rescue before she fell in love and couldn’t let him go. She had enough dogs and just felt the temptation to keep him was too great. We agreed and soon Titan was ours to raise and get prepped for a new home and family. Shortly afterwards his foster family noticed he was struggling to walk and his joints were inflamed. Titan was taken to several vets before receiving the diagnosis of Hypertrophic osteodystrophy (HOD). He has been put on a regimen of medications, high calorie food and hydrotherapy and is now running, jumping and playing with other dogs. His favorite things to do are play with toys, run and nap in the sun. Titan is a large dog and will do best in a home with another large dog or two that he will be able to play with. He will continue to need medication intermittently for some time and to be followed by a veterinarian. If you have large breed dog experience and are willing to take on this fellas special needs please contact Critter Cavalry Rescue. He is not house trained to hold longer than 4 hours. He needs to eat separately at mealtimes and he needs to learn better how to play with his toys in a group setting if there are other dogs. If he is the only dog then there is no special monitoring. Titan rides like a champ in the car or truck and he is definitely crate trained with good dog/name recall. He would be easier to watch in the yard if you had a real physical fence installed since he likes to wander off out of curiosity. Please email Critter Cavalry at ccrtennessee@gmail.com if you are interested. He is great with young children/boys that are rough and tumble and lots of noise.
