Story
Alexander needs a QUIET home that is content with a homebody who prefers to be home and not to have many visitors in their house. Alexander is on some pain medication that will need to be given daily. Alexander enjoys attention on his own time and prefers to seek out attention when he wants it and be left alone when he goes to his quiet/safe spot. An experienced giant breed home is preferred. Alexander requires daily medication and some support with transition to his new home Alex is a Dane who will need time to settle into a new environment and come out of his shell. He is not a Dane that will be loving and in your face all of the time and enjoys quiet time on his own. Alexander loves car rides and lounging on comfy furniture or dog beds. He also enjoys the company of low-key female Danes and does better with another dog in the home.

Story
Leo is a two year old black male Great Dane who comes from a tough beginning. Due to this beginning he is slow to warm up to new people and can be slow to warm up to new dogs. Leo would thrive as an only dog, but could do well with a resident dog that respects his space and doesn't want to play 24/7. Leo can sometimes try to be the only apple of his family's eye, so needs some continued guidance on how to share attention with others. Leo would do best in a Dane-experienced home that understands he will take time to decompress and adjust to his forever family. He would enjoy a quiet home that will work on exposing him to new things very slowly and always setting him up for success with baby steps.

Story
OTIS-“A GENIUNE CUDDLER” Otis is a 22-month-old; 131-pound black Dane in excellent health. He so far has provided the foster home with lots of cuddles and “asks for more” when you stop petting! He likes the neighbor dog; and is not overprotective over food. Although Otis knows a lot of basic commands, he’s still wanting to play, play, play so may need some help with “off”. The ideal adopter would be one that doesn’t mind Otis checking on your whereabouts to make sure you are okay and can work with Otis on puppy-swats that could be a little rough! This is a great boy and needs the love and attention of an owner who will spend cuddly time with him. He wants to prove to you that he is a good boy and listens well!
