Meet Meadow

Meadow is a loving, gentle soul who is looking for the calm, quiet home she truly deserves. She was returned by her adopter through no fault of her own—city life, with its bright lights and constant noise, was simply too overwhelming for this laid-back girl. Meadow is much better suited for a peaceful suburban setting where she can relax and feel safe.

Since arriving in her foster home, Meadow has been settling in beautifully. She has formed a particularly sweet bond with her youngest human foster sister and clearly enjoys gentle companionship and affection. Meadow is calm, affectionate, and happiest when she’s near her people soaking up attention and cuddles.

Meadow's previous owner said she got along beautifully with dogs at doggie daycare, but has met the resident dogs in her foster home with mixed reactions. A young, energetic 7-month-old Great Dane puppy proved to be a bit too much for her, and introductions with the other resident dogs are being handled slowly and thoughtfully. Due to Meadow's unpredictable reaction to other dogs, she may do best as an only dog.  

This sweet girl does not require an adopter with giant breed experience—just a family willing to invest time, patience, and love. Meadow is eager to please and will thrive with gentle guidance and consistent training. She does have a few quirks worth noting: Meadow may counter or table surf (though she’s polite and doesn’t take anything!), and if given the opportunity, she may try to bolt out the door, so a secure home and mindful handling are important.

Meadow is ready to blossom in a quiet, loving home where she can feel safe, cherished, and understood. If you’re looking for a calm, affectionate companion with a heart full of love, Meadow may be the perfect match for you.
