Story

Major: 130 Pounds of Gentle Giant Love Great Dane • 1½ years old • 130 pounds • Available the week of July 20 Major nearly lost his life for one heartbreaking reason: his landlord said he had to go, and his owner simply accepted that he would be euthanized. Thankfully, a Nashville firefighter heard what was happening and stepped in to save him. Since then, Major has been thriving in a foster home with four other dogs of different ages and temperaments. He has shown himself to be a remarkably sweet, curious, and adaptable young dog. He quickly learned to use the dog door, enjoys trips to the dog park, and handles new people, sounds, and surroundings with confidence. At 1½ years old, Major still has a playful, youthful spirit, but he is mature enough to settle easily into a new routine. He is friendly, affectionate, and gentle—the kind of dog whose enormous heart matches his enormous paws. Major is scheduled for surgery next week and should be ready for adoption the week of July 20. He is looking for a family that understands giant breeds and will give him the security and lifelong commitment he almost lost. Major did not deserve to die because someone decided he was inconvenient. He deserves a home where he will be treasured for the truly special dog he is.
