Meet Cassie — a classic Velcro Dane with a snaggle-tooth smile.
Cassie is the definition of a heart dog. She carries herself like a dignified senior… right up until the zoomies hit. This sweet girl still loves to explore, trot around the yard, and play in short bursts — then she’s perfectly content to lounge wherever the couch is softest (her hips appreciate the cushion, and she is on medication for comfort).
She’s pure Great Dane affection: full-body leans, soulful eyes, and enthusiastic, slobbery kisses. Personal space? Not her thing. If you sit down, she assumes it’s cuddle time. Her foster lovingly calls her a “Velcro perma-puppy,” and Dane lovers will recognize that devotion immediately.
Cassie has never met a stranger and happily accepts attention from anyone willing to give it. She prefers companionship and can feel a little anxious when separated by a kennel or gate, but she settles well with a Kong or long-lasting chew.
She is dog-friendly with both large and small dogs. Like many Danes, she’s a bit of a goofy, gentle player who doesn’t always realize her size — watching her joyful, slightly clumsy run is pure happiness.
Cassie came from a difficult situation but remains incredibly loving, trusting, and resilient. She’s looking for a Dane-savvy home that understands the magic of a senior: lower energy, deeper bonds, and a heart that just wants to be near you.
If you have a soft spot for silver-muzzled Danes, a comfy place beside you, and room in your heart for a loyal shadow, Cassie is ready to be your girl.
