Hi, I’m Archer and I'm ready to find my forever home.

Meet Archer!



Archer is a laid-back, couch-potato kind of guy who is truly as good as they come. He loves everyone he meets and would likely do just fine with children thanks to his gentle, easygoing nature. Call his name and he listens—because Archer is not only sweet, he’s also a smart boy!



Archer already knows sit, stay, wait, paw, and lay down. He’s a little strong on leash, but never rude, and does great on a martingale collar (a prong is available but rarely needed). He’s a respectful house guest who can be left out of the crate with zero issues—no accidents, no chewing, no destruction. Truly a dream dog.



Inside, Archer enjoys lounging and tossing his toys around the house. Outside, he gets playful and loves some fun time in the yard. He has the perfect balance of chill and playful energy.



Archer would be an amazing fit for just about any family and is especially well-suited for a first-time giant breed owner. He doesn’t require another dog in the home and would thrive in a loving environment where he can enjoy his comfy couch time and daily companionship. A fenced yard is a bonus, but not a must for this good boy.



Simply put—Archer is an all-around excellent dog, and whoever adopts him is incredibly lucky.

More about this rescue

Just Giant Rescue Inc (JGRI) is a dog rescue catering to giant breed dogs. We don’t discriminate against breed, but they must be giants such as the regal Great Dane, loyal Mastiff, and clownish Saint Bernard, to name a few.

We strive to follow the 3 R’s.
• Rescuing. We rescue from all types of situations, owner surrenders, and from local shelters. We strive to help as many as we can, with what resources we have available.
• Rehabilitating. All dogs are fostered inside loving homes, becoming temporary family members. They are fully vet checked, vaccinated, spayed/neutered, and guarded against heartworm, fleas and ticks. They are also given a temperament test prior to being eligible for adoption.
• Re-homing. Each dog is individually matched with the best suited adoptive home for them. Each applicant wanting to adopt must fill out an application and complete a home check prior to being approved.
