Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Please contact HL for more information about this pet.Thanks for your interest in a pet from A.R.F.! If you see a pet here, they are still available for adoption and you should apply through our adoption application on our website at  https://www.arf-il.org/adopt/application/   Scooby is a 3 year old male who weighs in at 95 pounds.  This dog's adoption fee is $850.  If you are still interested, please read more below. Meet Scooby!! This gentle giant came to ARF as his aging owner got sick and could no longer care for him. Leaving the only home he had ever known was very stressful for Scooby, but he settled into his foster home very quickly. He plays well with the resident dogs in his foster home, but prefers to be the leader of his pack. He would be fine with a dog larger than himself in the house, as long as they are submissive.  Scooby LOVES toys and to play or wrestle, and as soon as he is done playing, he wants to cuddle right up next to you on the couch. Scooby would do best with older, dog-savvy kids as he is very playful and doesn't always understand his size.  His foster home is working on breaking some bad habits that he came with, like counter surfing and begging. He was also a little too interested in the resident cat and would do best in a cat free home. A familiarity with Great Danes is a plus, but not a necessity. We believe his previous owners were retired which means Scooby did not spend a lot of time home alone. His ideal home would be one where he is not left home alone for extended periods of time on a regular basis.  Scooby has so much love to give and can't wait to find his forever family! Scooby is microchipped, up to date on all vaccinations, housebroken, and neutered.  This dog's family will be required to complete a basic obedience course of their choosing.  A meeting will not be scheduled until you have an approved application, so if you are interested in adopting this dog, fill out an Online Application today!  Once your application has been approved, an ARF volunteer will contact you to arrange a meeting. Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.   Thank you for considering a rescue pet from A.R.F.-Animal Rescue Foundation! We are  based in Wheaton, IL and conduct adoption events in the DuPage County area. If you are interested in adopting one of our pets, please submit an adoption application at https://www.arf-il.org/adopt/application/  Adoption appointments are scheduled based on the order of applications received, so submit your application early! Submitting an application does not commit you to any animal but does get you a head start with the adoption approval process. Due to a high volume of applications, we are often unable to respond to questions or schedule meetings until your application has been approved. More information about our adoption process can be found on our website here: https://www.arf-il.org/adopt/ As an all-volunteer, foster home-based organization, A.R.F. Animal Rescue Foundation does not have a facility where applicants can visit our animals. Please visit https://www.arf-il.org/events/ for a list of our upcoming adoption events.  Thank you for choosing to adopt, not shop! March 26, 2024, 10:36 pm

Story
Mando is a big ol’ cuddle bug! He LOVES lovin’s. He loves people, kids, walks, toys, cuddles, and kisses. Mando was found at a home as a 5 month old puppy on a chain with no food or water. The owner was approached and eventually surrendered him. This poor boy is now 10 months old and has lived in a shelter his entire life. Mando would thrive in a home and deserves one of his very own. He is wonderful with other dogs and is untested with cats. Mando is a 10 month old male Dane mix who is approximately 60 lbs. He is neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped. Mando is a big boy and still puppy playful, so he may be too much for small children. Fence required. This furbaby is located at Animal Harbor in southern middle TN. You can apply at www.animalharbor.org. If approved, we will facilitate a virtual meet and greet and answer any questions you may have. We partner with the awesome transport service company Rescue Riders to safely and professionally move our animals to their loving new homes!

Story
Meet Oreo, a 1-year-old male Great Dane/Black Labrador Retriever mix who is looking for his forever home! He is a big, lovable boy, weighing in at 70 pounds. He has a striking black and white coat, just like the cookie he's named after, and he's just as sweet. Oreo has a zest for life and is always happy and looking to have some fun! He is very strong on the leash, so his adopters should be comfortable handling a dog of his size and strength. Dont worry! We can show you how to manage him on leash. He would love a big yard where he can run and play all day long. His favorite thing to do is play tug and fetch! Oreo continues to work hard on his basic manners training. He's still trying to master loose leash walking, as he's still a young dog and a work in progress. But he loves his training time, knows sit and down, and with consistency, he'll quickly learn how to be a well-behaved companion. While Oreo did okay with kids in his previous home, he can be jumpy and mouthy at times, especially when he's super excited. Oreo also doesn't love sharing his highly prized items, so we recommend that any children in the household be over 12 years of age. Overall, Oreo is a smart and affectionate dog who will make a great companion for an experienced adopter who can provide him with the love, patience, and training he needs. If you're looking for an active and fun-loving dog, Oreo might just be the perfect match for you and he's here waiting to meet you! For more information, email info@ahconnects.org or call us at 847-697-2880 x: 0, and the staff will be happy to help you. Oreo is an all-star dog, and his adoption appointment includes a discussion with the training team, as well as a few enrichment goodies to help get you both off to a good start. To learn more about Oreo or to schedule an appointment to meet him, please email info@ahconnects.org (including your name and phone number), and the staff will be happy to assist you.

Story
Gunner - Male Great Dane Age: 2 years Good with: Cats: Probably not. He likes to chase. Dogs: Yes Kids: Yes, with older kids. Location: Lake St. Louis, MO Weight: 120 lbs Gunner is a sweet happy-go-lucky dog! He adapts well to the energy of the home and is currently living with a senior dog, who he has been very respectful towards. He is working on mastering a few commands and will do anything for a treat, which makes training really easy! His family will want to continue to work with Gunner on training commands and remembering his manners - sometimes the excitment over his humans gets the best of him. For a family, he would do fine with someone that works outside the home, as he does great in the kennel when left alone during the day. However, when his humans are home, he loves nothing more than hanging with his family. You will often find him snoozing on the couch or the floor nearby. His favorite part of the day might be when his family comes home from work. Be prepared for the greatest welcome home party ever as he runs through the house expressing his sheer joy for being reunited with his family! He walks really well on the leash using a gentle leader but still gets overly excited when seeing other dogs on walks and not understanding why he can’t go say hi to every one of them. He is improving every day but would benefit from continuing with his training in his new home. Although Gunner is younger, he makes a great couch potato and spends a lot of his time snoozing the day away. Gunner really is the goofiest boy and is so ready to bring joy to his family’s home. Gunner's Amazon Wishlist. All items will be sent to the foster home.  Until the profile is removed from the public’s view, the dog is considered available for adoption.  Meet and greets can be scheduled with approved adopters.

Story
Willow - Female Great Dane Age: 1 year Good with: Cats: No Dogs: Yes Kids: Yes Location: Jenison, MI Weight: 130 lbs Willow is one of 7 dogs that Just Giants rescued from a shelter. They were dumped by their breeder and all of them had a very short timeline before they were to be euthanized. Shortly after Willow came into our care, we found out she was pregnant and gave birth to 12 puppies. They have all found their homes and now it's Willow's turn! Willow is a happy and loving girl. She loves to run and play, but also enjoys snuggling up on the couch with her people. She is eager to please and would be adaptable to almost any family situation. She likes other dogs and their company, but she would be ok as an only dog as well. She would do best in a home without cats. She would love a fenced in yard or someone who is active, as she loves to run.  Until the profile is removed from the public’s view, the dog is considered available for adoption.  Meet and greets can be scheduled with approved adopters. Transportation from the foster home to the adopter is the responsibility of the adopter to coordinate. Just Giants does not adopt outside of the continental US. To apply to adopt from Just Giants Rescue, you can visit https://justgiants.org/adopt/ to fill out an application. All dogs adopted from Just Giants Rescue are up to date on shots, microchipped, and spayed or neutered. Some exceptions may apply.

Kurby - Male Great Dane Age: 1 year Good with: Cats: Unknown Dogs: Yes Kids: Yes Location: Judsonia, AR Weight: 63 lbs Kurby is a very sweet and playful puppy. He will need training, as he doesn't understand boundaries yet. But he will learn fast! Kurby is very attached to his humans and has some separation anxiety. He would love someone who is home often or can work with him on this. He rides well in the car and enjoys playing with other dogs. This boy will make a great companion for someone looking for a loyal giant.  Until the profile is removed from the public’s view, the dog is considered available for adoption.  Meet and greets can be scheduled with approved adopters.
