Story
Ruckus is one of four pups that came into care underweight, neglected, and poorly socialized. He had little supervision or guidance to teach him about the world around him. Since he was never really sure when his next meal would come, Ruckus tried to eat lots of stuff, including things that aren't food like cloth and rope. Since he's been in foster care he's learned about toys, couches, cuddles, beds, and his absolute favorite - YUMMY FOOD!! Ruckus went from hiding in the corner to running zoomies, playing ball, and snoring with his blankie during nap time. His favorite pastimes are eating, snuggling with his foster mom, and playing with his Weimaraner foster brother. Ruckus still worries about going hungry and hasn't been able to break the habit of swallowing things that aren't for eating, so he needs a lot of supervision to make sure he doesn't eat something that could hurt him. According to his foster mom, Ruckus will eat anything he finds - from sticks, dirt, and rocks to toys, bobby pins, socks, plastic, and just about everything else. He will gladly give up whatever he finds for a treat and has become quite the little trader! Ruckus loves people but he can be a little timid at first. Once he warms up he will be your constant companion. He is crate trained, rides well in the car, and is almost totally potty trained. He knows basic commands and is a super fast learner. In the few short weeks he's been in foster care Ruckus has made tremendous progress and he is gaining more confidence every day. He is a joyful, silly, happy and loving goofball! Ruckus needs a family that will set clear boundaries and will look out for him as he continues to figure out how to be a dog!

Roman

Great Dane

Male, 2 yrs 2 mos
Plymouth, MI
Size
(when grown) X-Large 101 lbs (46 kg) or more
Details
Good with dogs, Good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Roman is a handsome one year old black Great Dane male. He is still very much a puppy with a puppy brain. Roman is a sweet boy with the most soulful eyes you have ever seen! He is a gentle boy who attaches quickly to people. Roman enjoys quiet walks with his foster parents and helping out around the house. Walks are getting better w practice on a leash. Roman has a few quirks that he needs his potential adopters to be aware of. - he has bloated, his stomach has been tacked but in situations of high stress he is a bloat risk and will need to be monitored throughout his life - Roman has shown some food and resource guarding with other dogs. He will need to be fed separately from other dogs in the home and any high value food items like treats will need to be fed with dogs separated - Roman is a bit unsure of life and how to live like a "normal" dog. He seeks the guidance of the adult in his life and will need a calm, strong, experienced giant breed owner to help him figure all of this out (rescue experience preferred) - Roman is good with other dogs but is still figuring out how to play, he does best with confident, female dogs - Roman needs SLOW socialization and exposure to new things once he has built trust with his adopter. Our obedience requirement will be critical to Roman's success If you think you could be Roman's perfect family, please read more about adoption and submit an application at www.greatdanerescueinc.com/adopt

Story
Sparky was a lost stray coming from California! After flyers and fruitless searching, we adopted him and now he lives with me in Plymouth, MI. He loves to jump, play, is loving and is all around energetic but nothing to erratic. He's a good, well behaved fella...I just work tooo much! I have (2) jobs and work about 70+ hours sometimes a week and he's just so lonely. He is crated, potty trained and groomed every month w/a great diet -> he's very well taken care of! Needing his person to be around -> soon!

Story
Ted is a happy boy! Loves to play tug and is a big fan of treats. He needs lots of activity, and walks. LOVES head scratches. Right now he is on a daily med to prevent seizures. It costs about $19 a month and works great. He has not had another one since the meds started. We are now empty nesters and hate leaving him home alone all day. Looking for a happy fun home. He would do better as an only dog, but he does live with another dog now. He is just the king of the castle! :) He is used to a underground fence in the yard and does great.

Story
Lottie is the "itty bitty sister" that was rescued with 3 other puppies. She was not well socialized and started out a bit on the shy side. Lottie has done wonderfully in her foster home and has gained a ton of confidence! Foster mom reports she is about 90% potty trained and knows how to use a bell to signal. She is one smart cookie and is super sweet and cuddly. Lottie will need slow socialization, including puppy classes. She requires a lot of close supervision as she has a habit of eating things that aren't food, like socks, small dog toys, and hair ties. Lottie knows basic commands and is a great rider in the car. She is crate trained, sleeps through the night, and she LOVES small dogs. Lottie is a looking for committed family that will help her develop into the princess she was born to be!
