Story
My name is Javi. I am a big, solid, handsome boy! I was being surrendered to a high kill shelter with my sisters when I was saved at the last second...in the parking lot....before we entered the pound :) Now THAT is a RESCUE STORY!!! I am a BIG boy with a soft heart. I love to snuggle and get love from all the dogs in my foster home. I am a little slower to cuddle with my people until I know you are MY people! I am still shyer than my sisters from our ruff beginning. However, I have been working hard to learn to love and trust like sissies and am ready for YOU!! I especially love the tiny one who doesn't get that I'm just a giant teddy bear. I have the most adorable eyes and get so excited for treats, in fact kids are my FAVORITE :) Have you ever tasted their fingers?? Chicken nuggets and Cheerios ALL DAY LONG!! but I digress..... I want my furever family, little ones included and so if you like BIG BIG DOGS, APPLY!!! I am going to be WELL over 100# so must love BIG MUTTS! Some basic information about Javi; he is male, Great Dane/ Labrador Retriever mix, and is expected to be extra large sized, 100+ when fully grown. I am smart and sweet and will be great with another dog to play with, a confident and social dog will help me be social too. Local adoption fee is $250 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $500 (includes transport to your area - $50 Temporary Fuel Charge will be added)

DISCLOSURE: The adoptable pets in our program are still in the care and custody of owners who wish to re-home their pet. Owners have enlisted Rescue Well to provide marketing and screening of applicants as a service, free of charge. All fees and adoption conditions are determined by the owner. We advise that adopters do not send payment or deposits for pets prior to adopting.  ***** Bruno is 2 years old and weighs 126bs.  He's neutered, is up to date on his vaccines, but is not microchipped.  "Bruno is an extremely loving dog to our immediate family and to two family members who live nearby.  This is very challenging for us because we love and adore Bruno.  But we have to put our humans first.   He knows sit, down, come, and "place"... the last one is used to tell him to get in his crate.  He loves his crate and usually goes in just to nap with the door open.  He has been trained for invisible fence as well as with an e-collar, but behaviorist discourages both."  Bruno is crated when the family is not at home and loves it, as he feels secure and peaceful.  However, Bruno dislikes and/or fears outsiders and doorbells but LOVE car rides.  Bruno is fed Purina Pro Plan Sensitive Stomach Salmon and Rice + probiotic granules. BITE/LUNGE/ATTACK INCIDENTS:  Incidents happend in October 2022 and January 2023.  " Owner's brother (injury, but no medical attention needed), a family friend (no injury), neighbor's elderly dog (no injury).  Account from my brother (my husband and I were away on a business trip and my mom was in charge):  ' Mom, Benjamin, and myself all went into the garage to let him out and I let him sniff me through the crate prior to letting him out.  He seemed cool with me.   I did not know that he was taking trazadone at the time and that he had not received it yet*.  When he came out of the cage he seemed upset and lunged at me and bit me on the forearm.  It was just a quick thing.  He immediately let go.  It could've been a lot worse.  He could've held on and shook but he didn't.  Just a quick warning bite.  I assumed he remembered me and was okay with me.  That obviously  wasn't the case.  I sustained one puncture from his left to canine and bruising from the other three canines.' (no medical attention was sought). *Bruno was on trazadone following his neuter and gastropexy surgery about 12 days prior.  It was meant to keep him stationary during healing.  My husband and I were traveling for his work at the time.  My other two sons were at scouts meeting." Bruno's guardian explains why she made the decision to rehome him:  " We have invested a lot of resources into his health (neuter and gastropexy) as well as obediance training.  Unfortunately for us, we have not been able to rehabilitate him from his fearfulness and the agression toward outsiders that it brings.  After consultation with a very well-respected behaviorist, we have concluded that he could be rehabilitated to interact with outside adults and other dogs, but not with kids outside of our family.   It simply is not safe for us to continue to keep him and have our children's friends in and out of the house.  We have lost trust in his ability to be civil with kids beyond ours.  He would thrive in an environment where he can interact with patient adults, have lots of outdoor space, and be offered training by a reputable behaviorist." Bruno's guardian states the following about children:  Bruno lives with children, ages 15, 12 and 10, but his guardian doesn't recommend his living with children, stating Bruno is " Nervous, fearful, and aggressive.  He should not be rehomed to a place that has children visit." Bruno's guardian states the following about dogs:  Bruno has lived with dogs, but his guardian so she recommends his living with dogs, stating " I do know he originally was surrendered by a family who had a total of 3 Great Danes (his mother and father).  I actually think he'd benefit from living with other dogs who have a healthy social outlook.  A lso, he has a BLAST when he goes to board while we're away.  He makes friends and has a good time.  He also interacts well with the staff (probably because he is not on his territory/our house)." Bruno's guardian states the following about cats:  Bruno lives with a cat but his guardian doesn't recommend his living with cats, stating "He chases our cat.  The cat feels terrorized." Bruno's guardian further describes him as: Couch potato Barks alot Playful Likes to be touched Affectionate Fearful Always at your side Indoor dog Nervous House-Trained Crate-Trained Likes men Likes women Separation anxiety Bruno's guardian describes his ideal future home:  " A home with acreage and a fence that would allow him to run free.  He would be best-suited to a home where children do not visit.  With behavioral rehabilitation, he could be fine with visiting adults and dogs.  We can offer a full report from a renowned behaviorist."

Owners have enlisted Rescue Well to provide marketing and screening of applicants as a service, free of charge. All fees and adoption conditions are determined by the owner. We advise that adopters do not send payment or deposits for pets prior to adopting.  ***** Cute and playful Ford is a Great Dane, Saint Bernard, and Poodle mix; he is 2 1/2 yo, weighs 73lbs., is neutered, is up to date on his vaccines, but is not microchipped.  Ford needs a new as a result of rules changes where he currently lives.  Ford knows basic commands, is great in the vehicle but doesn't like it when his guardians play wrestle w/their children. Ford's guardian explains why she is rehoming him:  " We live on a boat and the marina has recently changed the rules about dogs being outside. He now doesn't have yard space to run and play and with a very hectic schedule, I'm not finding enough time to take him to the park. Short walks aren't cutting it for him and he's been spending more and more time in the crate." Ford will be a great companion with children (lives w/children ages 2 & 5), dogs, and cats, as he's lived with all of them.  He's very friendly and loves kids, but since he doesn't know his size, supervision with small children is necessary.  He's also submissive and playful w/dogs.  Although Ford loves cats, he knows their limitations, so he follows their cue when they show they aren't interested in playing. Ford's guardian describes him as: Very active Playful Friendly Likes to be touched Affectionate Always at your side Indoor dog House-Trained Crate-Trained Likes men Likes women Ford's guardian describes his ideal future home:  " Ford would thrive with a fenced yard and another dog to run around with. Ideally kids that are a little older to play fetch with him. A family who will take him on adventures and include him in all activities."

Story
Nova is a term given to bright stars that appear suddenly in the sky and release powerful energy, and we think her name describes her to a T since she's a 5-year-old Great Dane/Mastiff mix! Here's what we know about Miss Nova: she has lived with older children and has also lived with dogs, but cats are a big question mark. Nova's previous family tells us she is house- and crate-trained too. Nova has a calm and relaxed demeanor, but she also has a playful side that comes out whenever she hears a squeaky toy. If you like big mutts and you're not gonna lie, then Nova just might be your girl!

She is just a big ole goofball that wants your love! Minnie is a loving young lady who loves attention and would love for you to take her home and just pet her all day! She loves to melt into your leg, who can resist that? She has lots of energy and loves to walk and explore. Minnie is good on leash, just likes to crisscross sometimes to explore, stay out of her way! Minnie forgets how big she is, and tries to squeeze anywhere she can, including your lap! Her affection and size can sometimes get in her own way, so a home with older children to play with her would be optimal, so she can remember how big she is! She is still learning all of her manners, and is not very food motivated, so a home with patience will suit her best. Are you a Mickey looking for your big Minnie? This is the girl for you! She'd be happy to see you at one of our events!
