Story
Meet Ms. Cali…the great big Great Dane mix girl with a heart to match her size. Sadly, Cali was found dumped at a local gas station in the heat of summer. She came home with us that same day and adjusted quickly and nicely to daily family life. She has always been gentle and friendly with my 7 yr old son and my female Sheepadoodle. I would advise against her going to a home with small children or small pets. Cali sometimes forgets she’s a big ol girl and when she’s excited or someone new is present, she likes to raise a (big) paw up to greet them. She is definitely not a barker, although she will howl and “talk” from time to time. Cali deserves a forever home that shows her what security, kindness and love truly mean.
