Story
Meet Pancake! This sweet girl came to us as an owner surrender through no fault of her own — her family went through a divorce, and the move that followed meant she couldn't come along. She'd been with them since she was a puppy and was clearly loved, but now she's ready for her next chapter, and we have a feeling it's going to be a great one. Since joining our foster family, Pancake has been nothing but a big love bug. She lives for human connection — give her a good scratch and she is in absolute heaven. She's incredibly well-behaved and gets along beautifully with other dogs, making her a wonderful fit for multi-dog households. Don't let her calm demeanor fool you — Pancake has a playful side too! Toss a stuffed animal her way and watch her light up. She recently spent a fun-filled morning at the park where she soaked in all the sights, met new dogs and people, and even did some very serious bird watching. She was a rockstar through all of it. Pancake spent most of her life living outside, so being a true indoor companion is a new and wonderful adventure for her — one she's clearly thriving in. If you're looking for a gentle, loving girl who just wants to be near her people, Pancake might be exactly who you've been waiting for.

Seriously, I'll happily stroll along chatting to myself (and to you, and to anyone else who'll listen). I've got thoughts, and I'm not afraid to share them!All I really want is a loving home to call my own. I've been on quite the journey, but now that I'm here at Woods, I just know my person is out there and will find me soon.If you're looking for a mature, gentle giant who enjoys walks, treats, and a good end-of-day conversation, then don't keep me waiting - come meet me today!

Story
Precious Pearl is certainly a rare gem and a gentle giant! At a year old, she weighs 85 pounds and is still growing. Pearl loves other dogs and would likely do best in a home with another dog buddy. She loves big dogs and little dogs, and she’s also wonderful with kitties. Pearl was raised around children, and although she is certainly gentle enough to be around small kids, she would probably overwhelm a small child simply because of her size. There’s not an aggressive bone in her body, and her favorite activity is being a real couch potato. Pearl bonds beautifully – there seems to be no end to her love! Pearl is completely housebroken and loves to just sleep in her dog bed and keep her humans in her sight. She’s wonderfully attentive and easily trainable.

Pearl is completely housebroken and loves to just sleep in her dog bed and keep her humans in her sight. She’s wonderfully attentive and easily trainable. Great Danes are laid-back and calm. They love to lounge on the couch, making them excellent companions with whom to watch a Netflix movie! When resting, they often sit still or pose majestically while guarding their owners. Danes are very mellow and calm couch potatoes. Of course, Pearly is spayed and up to date on all of her shots. She’s microchipped and perfectly healthy, and I have her medical records to pass on to her new forever home. I am a firm believer is having potential adopters take a pup home for a “sleepover” to see how your family, your other pets, and your new best buddy all get along. We always take our rascals back if it isn’t a good fit. To meet this beautiful pupper and the rest of my foster pups (and maybe even have a sleepover), pls email findabestbuddy@gmail.com or call 858-602-2061 • findabestbuddy@gmail.com • (858) 602-2061

Story
Maverick is everything you hope for in a Great Dane — big, beautiful, and unbelievably loving. At 4 years old, this stunning AKC-registered boy (half Euro / half American) is neutered, fully vaccinated, and ready to settle into his forever home. True to his breed, Maverick embodies the classic Great Dane temperament: gentle, loyal, and deeply devoted to his people. Often called the “Apollo of Dogs,” Great Danes are known for their regal presence and enormous hearts — and Maverick is no exception. Despite his impressive size, he’s a total softie who thrives on affection and closeness. His favorite place to be? Right next to you. Leaning his tall frame against your legs. Resting his big, handsome head in your lap. Quietly following you from room to room just to keep you company. Maverick gets along beautifully with people and other dogs. He carries himself with that calm, steady Dane presence — confident yet gentle. While he may look like a giant, he’s truly a tender-hearted companion who just wants love and connection. He would flourish in a home that understands and appreciates giant breeds — someone who values a loyal shadow, a couch companion, and a best friend wrapped up in a magnificent frame. If you’ve been dreaming of a devoted, affectionate Great Dane to share your life with, Maverick is ready to fill your home (and your heart).
