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

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!

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.

Story
How this pet arrived: Nova was brought in by their previous owner. Why Nova might be the one for you:Meet Nova, a friendly and affectionate pup in search of a loving new home! Nova has been doing great in a foster home, and settled into her new routine in just a few days. She is friendly with guests and if you offer her pets, she loves to weave between your legs for full body scratches. Nova is also very food motivated and is pretty content with just one long walk each day. Nova does get excited when she sees other dogs on walks, so she'll benefit from ongoing positive reinforcement training to help manage her reactions. If you're looking for a laidback and loving companion, Nova is ready to enjoy her golden years with you. Inquire about adopting this sweet gal today! At SDHS:This pet has been vaccinated, microchipped and spayed/neutered. This pet is now ready for their new home! Primary Color: Tan Secondary Color: Black Weight: 97.5 Age: 10yrs 7mths 3wks
