Story

Meet Dane, a 1 year old male Lab/Great Dane mix who weighs around 65 lbs. Dane is a total delight! Super sweet and he may still have a bit more growing to do so he will be a big boy. He has a heart full of joy and enjoys life to the fullest. Known for his fun, goofy antics, life with Dane is fun and never boring. His playful and friendly nature makes him a perfect companion for adventurous people or families. Energetic and full of life, Dane is always ready for a friendly romp with other dogs of all sizes. He has a great disposition that endears him to everyone that he meets. He will need a fenced yard with plenty of space to run and play but will want to be inside with his people when he is not having fun outside. Dane is house trained and ready to join your family! Dane is neutered, fully vetted, heartworm negative and microchipped. Our pups come with one month of free pet insurance when you adopt.

Story

This is Snickers, the gentle easy going 5-year-old Great Dane and Poodle mix that is ready to steal your heart and maybe a few squeaky balls along the way! Weighing in at 123 pounds, making him a giant-sized dog. (yes, he is a big guy, and he is all love). Snickers was a beloved family pet whose owners realized they could not give him the attention he deserves due to job changes and increasing family demands.Snickers is a calm, submissive and low-keyed buddy who has mastered the art of being a relaxed companion. Snickers enjoys being with other dogs, but due to his size, a household with older children may be best. Snickers has not had the opportunity to meet any cats, so it is unknown how he will be with them.Snickers is house and crate trained. It is important to remember that although Snickers is house trained, accidents can occur while adjusting to a new home environment. Snickers already knows his come, sit, down, stay and shake paws. He is basically a four-star pup with a few tricks up his sleeve. He loves being brushed (his version of a spa day) and water (who does not like a good splash?). Snickers leash training is in process, and he would benefit from continuing this important training.If you are looking for a big loveable goofball, who is more about cuddles than chaos, Snickers may be your new best friend. Come and meet him and see if he is the right fit for your family!* Please keep in mind when considering adoption, dogs thrive on structure and routine. They adjust significantly better when their owners are committed to providing consistency and stability.The adoption fee for Snickers is $500. That includes the cost of spaying/neutering, up to date vaccinations, foster care, rescue and transportation fees. To get the ball rolling, head over to our Adoption Application and submit your application today. A Dog Star representative will contact you within 24 hours. To speed up the process, contact your vet and give them permission to speak with us.If you do not get a response within 24 hours, check your spam folder.December 7, 2025, 6:07 am

Story

Maverick is a 3 year old Great Dane mix. His DNA results came back as 60%PitBull 30%Great Dane and 7%Rhodesian Ridge Back. He is a GOOFY, fun loving boy who has lots of energy to burn. He loves to spend hours chewing on a bone and playing with his toys. Maverick went to a 6 week board and training program and his trainer will meet with his new family to bring them up to speed on his commands. It breaks our hearts more than words can describe to have to make this choice but he is not good with small children and we have a 3 month old. I fear the more mobile she gets the bigger the risk of something unfortunate happening are. He really is the sweetest, funniest dog I have ever had. I hope he can find a family who suits his needs. Under no circumstances should he be in a home with another dog or children under the age of 13. He has grown up around my cat but I would introduce on leash.

Story

Dane is a stunning blue merle great dane mix. He is about 8 months old and great with dogs of all sizes and with cats. He was rescued from a small rural shelter where he was slated to be euthanized due to time and space. He is a chill dude who likes to nap, go on walks and hang with his friends. He is currently still in Oklahoma where he was rescued but he can only be adopted out of state where people treat animals well. He has to be prepaid and picked up directly from transport at one of our transport drop off locations below. If things don't work out for some reason, which rarely ever happens, we will either find a local foster to take him in or he will go back to Oklahoma on our next transport until a new home is found. Note: No dogs are advertised as potty-trained because most dogs need at least some re-training in a new environment and after being in a shelter/rescue environment/strays. www.facebook.com/desideratarescue(copy and paste into a new browser window) Transport locations: - Washington State (Kennewick, Spokane, Tumwater, Tacoma, Tukwila, Lynnwood/Edmonds, Bellingham) - Oregon (Portland and Springfield) - Colorado (Ft Lupton) - Idaho (Heyburn and Boise/Meridian) - Utah (Ogden) - Wyoming (Evanston, Rock Springs, Laramie) - Montana (Missoula) - Illinois (Vandalia, Springfield, Chicago) - Indiana (Spiceland, Burn Harbor) - Wisconsin (Madison, Wausau, Eau Claire, Appleton, Milwaukee) - Minnesota (Minneapolis/St Paul) - Iowa (Des Moines) - Ohio (Columbus and London) - Pennsylvania (Erie, Pittsburgh and Harrisburg) - New York (Buffalo and Albany) - Connecticut (Enfield) - New Jersey (Bedminster) - Nevada (Las Vegas) - Arizona (Flagstaff) - Vermont (Brattleboro) Vetting: neutered, microchipped, rabies vaccine, bordetella vaccine, dhpp vaccine x 3, lepto vaccine x 2, dewormed several times, on monthly flea and tick prevention, on monthly heartworm protection, heartworm tested (negative).
