Story
Ajax is a handsome four year old blue merle Great Dane with a friendly, curious, and eager to please disposition. He was transferred to rescue after finding himself in a midwestern municipal shelter. Ajax arrived underweight, having been neglected by his prior owner, but is doing well in foster care. He is a bit of a "velcro dog," as Danes are apt to be, and would love the devotion of his very own family. Ajax enjoys going anywhere where there is attention to be given to him, and appears to do well with humans and dogs of all sizes, though he can get very excited during play, which will not work for every kind of friend. He is neutered, fully vaccinated, microchipped, heartworm negative, wormed, on heartworm prevention; we do not believe he has had a gastropexy. Ajax's adoption fee is $350.

For more information about this Dane, please visit our website at https://rmgreatdane.org. Adoption Applications link can be found on the home page. Meet Chevy   Status: Available Sex: Spayed Female – Gastropexied Color: Merle    Ears: Natural Age: 5 yrs  Weight: 108 lbs Great Dane Experience Required Adoption Fee – has been paid by a generous sponsor   Updated 1-26-2026 Meet Chevy — the sweetest girl with a tender heart, a playful soul, and a story shaped by resilience. At 5 years old, Chevy has made meaningful strides through professional training and is now searching for a calm, experienced family ready to continue her journey with patience and understanding. Personality Chevy is a sensitive, soulful Great Dane with a gentle heart and a playful, goofy side that shines once she feels safe. Her story is one of resilience, growth, and quiet bravery – and she’s looking for a calm, patient home that will continue supporting her journey. Chevy thrives on routine and structure. New people, sudden movements, loud noises, and unfamiliar environments can feel overwhelming at first, and she needs time and thoughtful introductions to build trust. But once that trust is earned, Chevy transforms into an affectionate Velcro Dane who adores snuggles, belly rubs, couch time, and following her people from room to room. She’s curious, endearing, and not shy about nudging a hand when she wants affection. At home with her trusted people, Chevy is a total goofball – rolling in the grass, doing joyful zoomies, chewing on her favorite toys, and proudly flopping onto her back for attention. She sleeps in bed, loves treats, and finds comfort in predictable daily routines. Training & Progress Chevy is house trained, crate trained, and knows her basics including sit, down, come, stay, and off. She walks well on leash but may pull when excited. She is intelligent, food-motivated, and eager to learn, especially in calm, structured environments where expectations are clear. Fear and anxiety are Chevy’s biggest challenges, particularly around unfamiliar people and dogs. With professional training support, she has shown encouraging progress – remaining calm and neutral in controlled social settings and gaining confidence at her own pace. Continued positive-reinforcement training, management, and consistency will be essential for her success. Ideal Home Other Pets & Children Chevy will do best as the only pet in the home. While she has shown improvement and occasional positive interactions with other dogs in structured training environments, she is not comfortable with dogs approaching her and struggles in neighborhood settings. She needs an adults-only home or one with older, dog-savvy teens. Young children and unpredictable movement are not a good fit for her. Ideal Home Chevy is looking for:• A quiet, predictable home• A fenced yard or safe outdoor space for zoomies• No other pets• Adults only or older, dog-savvy teens• Experience with fearful or reactive dogs (or willingness to learn)• Patience, structure, compassion, and consistency She can experience separation anxiety but is learning to settle and does best when departures are part of a consistent routine. When left alone, she is generally calm, resting or entertaining herself with toys. A Few More Things to Love • Loves car rides and hops right in• Non-destructive in the home• Sleeps in bed and loves to snuggle• Very polite with food and waits for permission &#226&#157&#164&#239&#184&#143 Why Chevy Chevy isn’t a “plug-and-play” dog – but for the right home, she is deeply rewarding. She forms strong emotional bonds and gives her whole heart to the people who make her feel safe. Watching her confidence grow – through brave moments, playful zoomies, and quiet cuddles – is incredibly special. &#226&#156&#168 Thanks to a generous sponsor, Chevy’s adoption fee has been fully covered so she can land in the perfect home—where the focus is on the right match! If you’re ready to offer a calm, committed home and help a sensitive Great Dane continue to blossom, Chevy may be the dog you’ve been waiting for.

Angle is a 4.5 Year Old Great Dane/Smooth Coated Collie Mix. She loves playing with other dogs and ignores cats, unless they want to play. She loves her people and even though she loves playing with other dogs, she really wants her human all to herself. She is also laid back and enjoys a good cuddle and chill on the couch while catching up on some TV. Angle is crate trained, enjoys toys and completely untrustworthy on free roam with high interest items (this includes expensive items; we don’t know how she knows – but she does!)

Story
Roper was running at large in North Texas and found his happy place at a French Bulldog breeder’s property SO if you see some really big FBs you know who the baby daddy is! He got his name because the sheriff roped him to break up the party. Our founder drove him to Colorado and just because of his size, she said people wouldn’t even make eye contact with her at gas stations, especially when she got him out to tinkle. She felt totally safe with him and so happy to have him along for the ride. He is 80-ish pounds and we think Dane and whatever. Roper has since been neutered, is current on vaccines, and has been working with a trainer on general obedience. His best owner would be alpha and keep up his training. This boy is sweet and athletic - watching him run and play is a beautiful thing. Please email dancingdogrescueco@gmail.com for foster or adoption information.

Story
HOMEOWNERSHIP REQUIRED! Attention LARGE dog lovers!!!  Please meet Stuart (not so little)! Don't let his sleek grey coat, soft floppy ears, and stunning hazel eyes distract you. Stuart may look like a striking and refined pedigree, but in reality, he's a big goofball!  Stuart thinks he will fit perfectly into any lap and looks for opportunities to make that happen! Stuart has wonderful obedience skills (sit, stay, shake, down, come, leave it and place) - He is very smart, always eager to please and very treat motivated.  He is fully house trained, crate trained and also has wonderful leash manners. Stuart loves to play with most other dogs (following proper introductions), loves children and has successfully resided with a feline.  Due to his size and energy level during play, Stuart would likely do best with medium to larger dogs (smaller dogs tend to be intimidated by his size) and should be supervised around younger children - he loves to gallop in the yard or during feeding time and may, accidentally, fail to notice a smaller child in his excitement. Having come from a less than desirable home situation, new surroundings, crowded places, and some new new people may make Stuart a bit nervous from time to time.  But, he has had the opportunity to work with his foster family in these areas to create positive associations and has made wonderful strides - he now rewards his foster family with endless belly rubs and voluntarily offers his paw for a shake!  He has gained confidence in meeting new people with just a little bit of structure and reassurance from those he trusts.  Stuart has so much love to give - if you apply to meet sweet Stuart today, you will not be disappointed! Adoption fee includes the following: Spay/Neuter Rabies Vaccination Distemper / Parvo Vaccines (includes series of 3 for puppies) Bordetella Microchip with prepaid lifetime registration Deworming ##839726##

Story
After a long season of being a devoted mama, it’s finally Reba’s turn to be the star! This sweet girl has spent much of her life taking care of others, and now she’s looking for a forever family to take care of her. Reba is a gentle, quiet companion who is rediscovering the joy of just being a pup. While she can be a little hesitant with new faces (both human and dog), her wagging tail says it all…she wants to be your friend, she just needs a little reassurance to get there. Reba is the ultimate low drama roommate: she’s fully house-broken, sleeps through the night without a peep, is not interested in chewing, and gets along with her two foster sisters. Reba is looking for a home that understands she might need a few extra snuggles to feel brave. Once she knows she’s home, she’ll be your most loyal shadow and forever a happy pup.  ##2699112##
