Story
Costello is and 8 year old Dane mix, very loving and needs a new home as he isn't getting along with our other male dog anymore. He loves walks and still likes to play with his toys. He's great at the dog park but territorial at home. Snuggle time is his favorite and will take baths with no problem. He's been to a regular day camp with other dogs and did well there, he just isn't good with other male dogs at home unless they are just visiting.

Story
Meet Astro!*Currently in foster in Kelowna BC arae*Astro is a stunning 1-year-old Lab/Great Dane mix—a true gentle giant with a big heart to match his size. He was rescued alongside his 8 siblings at just 6 weeks old and has been waiting patiently at the shelter ever since. Astro is wonderful with other dogs. He’s naturally submissive, easygoing, and gets along beautifully with canine companions. In new environments, Astro can be a bit shy and needs time to build trust with his people. He is never aggressive—just a sensitive soul who appreciates space and patience as he forms a bond.Once he feels safe, Astro blossoms into a loyal and loving companion. He would be the perfect match for someone looking for a large best friend, an adventure buddy, or a playful companion for their current dog.Astro has completed our full medical protocol, including:Full vaccinations (including Bordetella & Lepto)DewormingMicrochip with lifetime registrationSpay/neuter surgeryBloodwork (CBC, chemistry panel, 4DX test)Flea/tick/heartworm prevention (NexGard Spectra)

Story
Oden is a wonderful and growing Great Dane puppy. He spent the first five months of his life on a 5 to 6 foot chain. So when he arrived at the shelter, he did not have a lot of manners. But he is sweet as all get out. He is loving, playful, and just wonderful! **** Please read adoption information carefully!!!**** Odin is a stunningly handsome little boy -male, 7 months -supposedly pure-bread, -Neutered -Current Weight : 90 lbs, will grow -Crate trained -Potty trained Odin is a big, funny bundle of joy, energy, and affection. He is just a big goofball! Odin is still a puppy, and will continue to grow. He is on the bigger side, but has an abundance of affection and cuteness! Odin is a well-adjusted puppy who has been hand raised. He has never shown any signs of aggression of any kind, including food aggression, although he can occasionally be a little rambunctious. He really thinks that he is a little dog…. ? Odin wants to be a lapdog; he can’t quite figure out why he doesn’t fit in my lap, but he settles for putting his head in my lap, since the rest of him doesn’t fit 😜 Odin is used to playing and sleeping with the other dogs on the property. He is well socialized, both with humans and dogs. While I have never seen him interact with a cat, I have no reason to anticipate a problem. ************************************ ADOPTION INFORMATION ************************************ I only adopt LOCALLY; San Diego and immediate vicinity.
