Story
Mr Loyal! That is what describes this boy in one word. Romo was once owned by someone in Aruba who then moved to the Netherlands. They gave him to some friends that let him roam the streets. We found him strolling along at a bus stop with a huge hematoma on his ear. He jumped right in the car and we took him to the vet. He had surgery and has now recovered from it. We were asked to take him with us to the US as the new owners didn't have the means to take care of him. Romo is an extremely loyal dog, calm and quiet and at the same time friendly with people and dogs. He's is extremely well mannered. Call us to hear about him and learn why we think he is the most loyal dog. His previous owner says he is 4 years old ( the vet says 5) and if you look on our Facebook page you will see all his posts about him. Oh and yes he loves riding in the car with you. He is house broken, does not like the cage to much, but that's ok. He doesn't get himself in trouble in the house. This is a great big dog! He mostly looks like a Great Daner, but could also have some Labrador in it. He is not a drooler like the Danes are. He likes other dogs but will also do well when being just with his special person. We would like to adopt him out within 40 miles of Elgin. His adoption fee is $350 to help us with the cost for his plane ride and the associated vet expenses.

Story
Hello good people, my name is Easton! I am a 10 week old Great Dane mix and I currently weigh about 10 pounds. I'm sure I'll grow to be a much bigger pup as an adult! I'm a big fan of playing my heart out, followed by a solid nap, and then some more playing. I absolutely love comfy blankets, stuffies, and the company of another dog! I am happiest with my people and especially love to snooze near you. I promise I'll be your loyal shadow. What can I say? I love attention! My foster family has started working with me on puppy training, and I just hope my future family will be continue teaching me the ropes while letting me their bestie for the rest of my days. If you're looking for your heart dog, I'm up for the gig! My adoption fee is $600, with an optional gastropexy contract for an additional $150

Story
Meet Eli 🤍 Eli is a 7-ish month old baby who is still very much growing into his body — and his confidence. He’s all arms, legs, and goofy charm, and while they suspect he may be a Great Dane mix… honestly? He could also just be a certified good boy in a lanky phase. He loves to be a lap dog. Eli was recently pulled from a high-risk shelter, and we’re so glad he got his second chance. He’s on the thinner side right now and will need to put on some healthy weight, but he’s already thriving with good food, love, and stability. This sweet boy loves other dogs Eli is still young, so he’ll benefit from continued training, structure, and patience as he grows. In return, he’ll give you loyalty, companionship, and that hilarious “I don’t know what to do with my legs” puppy energy that keeps life entertaining. If you’re looking for a kind-hearted, dog-friendly pup who’s ready to grow up alongside you, Eli might just be your guy. 💙 If you are interested in El contact Jenn and Hannah at ruffners1880@gmail.com. The adoption fee is $275. Adoption fee includes: - microchip - spay/neuter - age appropriate vaccinations: Bordetella, DH(L)PP, rabies - heartworm preventive & flea/tick preventive - deworming

Story
I am 108 lbs., and I am looking for my forever home. Adoption Donation: $500 Meet Pipsqueak, the loveable Great Dane! Don’t let the name fool you — this gentle giant has a huge heart to match his size. Pipsqueak came to us from a tough situation in Tennessee, where he was surrendered along with 11 other animals. When he arrived, he was severely underweight and clearly hadn’t had the care he deserved. Since being rescued, this sweet boy has already started his comeback story. He’s gained some weight and strength, but he’ll still need a loving home committed to helping him continue to fill out and thrive. What Pipsqueak may lack in pounds right now, he more than makes up for in affection. The moment he sees staff, his whole body wiggles with excitement. He’s a total love bug who just wants to be close to his people and soak up all the kindness he can get. Pipsqueak is looking for a home that will give him patience, good nutrition, and lots of snuggles while he continues his journey to full health. In return, you’ll get a loyal, goofy, oversized best friend who will adore you with his whole wiggly self. All dogs are microchipped, neutered, current on all vaccines, heartworm tested (if age appropriate), and up-to-date on preventatives at the time of adoption. All household members and any dogs from the household need to be present to be able to adopt. A photo ID will be required at the time of adoption. Appointments are recommended. All applications are considered general. Specific animals are NOT put on hold for adoption. When you visit, our adoption counselors will be able to make suggestions based on the type of pet you are looking for and help you find the best fit for your family. Animal House Shelter cannot guarantee the breeds of the adoptable animals. The animals are posted on the website as the breed or breed mix based on their physical characteristics they most resemble. We also cannot guarantee the ages of our adoptable animals or how large puppies will be when fully grown. We look forward to seeing you soon!

Story
A few years ago, this sweet girl was found dumped along the fence of our rescue! She was skin and bones and needed immediate help, so we named her MayDay. Our best guess is she around 6 or 7 years old and a Great Dane/ Staffshire terrier mix. She is very gentle, loves people, and really enjoys car rides. Mayday gets along with males, but is not very playful with other dogs. She would do best as the only fur baby in the home. Since she has been a kennel dog her whole life, MayDay is not pot trained so she will need a family who understands that. This dear girl would love a chance to live out her days in the comfort of a home with a family who will love her! If you want to give MayDay that chance, find us at https://www.tailsoftheforgottenpaws.org/ to fill out an application or on facebook (tails of the forgotten paws)

Story
Holly is a gorgeous black Great Dane mama with the softest eyes and the gentlest soul. She came to us from Texas after being found living under a porch, doing her best to survive while pregnant. Despite that start, Holly is everything you hope a dog can be. She gave birth to seven puppies and has been an incredible mother. Patient. Attentive. Calm. She watches over her babies with quiet confidence and a whole lot of love. Holly is sweet, friendly, loving, and gentle. She enjoys human attention, leans in for affection, and has a peaceful presence that makes you feel instantly at ease. She is the kind of dog who fits beautifully into a home that values calm energy and connection. Holly is ready for a home where she can finally be cared for the way she deserves. A soft place to rest. A family to love. A life where she never has to worry again.   ##2598812##

She listens well to commands and is still an active, capable dog. She absolutely loves: • Running alongside a bike • Swimming • Being outdoors Mya would do best in a home with no other pets and would truly thrive on a farm or a property with space to run and explore. Unfortunately, she is no longer allowed at her current housing and needs immediate placement with someone who can give her stability, space, and love for her golden years ahead.
