Great Dane puppies and dogs in Minneapolis, Minnesota

Meet Coco! ❤️ Coco is a sweet, affectionate girl who loves nothing more than being with her people. She’s a wonderfully content companion who is happy to go for a walk, run around the backyard, or simply hang out at home. She’s quiet and well-behaved in the house, doesn’t chew on things, and knows when it’s time to settle in for the night. Coco definitely knows how to ask for attention! She may jump up for a hug or hop into your lap before rolling over for her favorite belly rubs. She’s working on keeping all four paws on the floor when saying hello, but her enthusiasm is pretty adorable. She loves playing in the backyard and will happily chase a toy. She’s even learned the “return” part of fetch, so she’s making great progress on becoming a fetching pro! Coco enjoys playing with other dogs and can be a fun companion, although she can get a little jealous when sharing attention. Sometimes her people just need to make sure everyone gets their fair share of pets! She could also be perfectly happy as your one-and-only. Coco is house-trained, knows her basic commands, and is working on her “stay.” She also settles beautifully in her crate and has made great progress with feeling comfortable there. Coco can be a little unsure of some men when she first meets them and may give a small growl when she’s nervous. She does best with a slow, low-pressure introduction—having a new person sit down and let her approach on her own terms helps her feel much more comfortable. Once Coco decides you’re okay, though, you’ll discover the absolute best girl: affectionate, loving, and ready to soak up all the attention she can get. Coco is a wonderful companion who simply wants to be near her people. Give her a little patience when meeting new people, plenty of belly rubs, and a spot by your side, and Coco will happily show you what a special girl she is. 💕

If you’ve ever wanted a giant, loving shadow following you around the house, Betty is your girl! She is a lover, not a fighter, and she absolutely thrives on being close to the people she loves. And yes — she is a BIG girl! Betty will happily assume a prominent place in your family and soak up every bit of love and attention you’re willing to give her.

She loves meeting new people and dogs and has proven to be an easygoing, adaptable girl. She doesn’t ask for much — just a family who will love her, include her in their lives, take her for walks, give her a comfy place to nap, and let her be as close to them as possible. Great Dane lovers, Betty is waiting for you!  She has spent enough time being someone’s foster girl. Now she’s ready for the forever home she deserves.

💜 Come meet me at our Adoption Event at Apple Jack Orchards in Delano on Saturday, 10/17 from 2-5pm! 💚 💜 Come meet me at our Adoption Event at Leisen Family Farm in River Falls, WI on Sunday, 10/18 from Noon - 3:00pm! 💚 Age: Estimated 18 months old Weight: 108 lbs. Dog friendly: Yes Cat friendly: Yes, dog-savvy cats only Kid friendly: Yes, older/considerate children only Potty trained: Yes Crate trained: Working on it! Meet Mater! Big Dog. Bigger Heart. Absolutely No Concept of Personal Space. If you've ever wanted a 100+ pound best friend who will love you with his whole heart (and possibly his whole body), Mater is your guy! Mater is an approximately 18-month-old Great Dane/Mastiff mix with a goofy personality, a curious nature, and all the grace of a baby giraffe. He's friendly, affectionate, and absolutely loves his people. He's the kind of dog who doesn't just want to be part of your family. He wants to be right there beside you, soaking up every belly rub and bit of attention you're willing to give. Mater is still figuring out this whole indoor dog thing, and he's off to a great start. He hasn't had a single potty accident in his foster home, despite spending most of his life outside. He's still learning his manners, though, and sometimes forgets just how much dog he is. He loves playing with other dogs, but his enthusiasm can be a little overwhelming. Imagine a giant toddler who hasn't quite figured out that not everyone appreciates a full-contact friendship. Mater's ideal family will have a good sense of humor, plenty of patience, and a willingness to help him channel all that big-dog energy. He's still young and has a lot to learn, but he's also got so much love to give. With some consistency, guidance, and a family committed to helping him succeed, this goofy guy will make one lucky family an incredible companion. Most of all, Mater is looking for someone who will love him just as fiercely as he'll love them. Because once this big guy decides you're his person, you're going to have one very devoted (and very large) best friend. Adoption Fee: $495

PLEASE NOTE! WE ARE A TEXAS BASED RESCUE. THIS DOG IS CURRENTLY IN TEXAS AND WILL BE TRANSPORTED TO YOUR STATE ONCE ADOPTED. Our app can be found at haydudeequine.org Hi there! I'm Gunner. I'm an 10-month-old pup weighing about 60 pounds, and I'm looking for a family who appreciates a dog with a big heart and an even bigger personality. I've been told I'm quite the conversationalist. Now, don't worry—I'm not a nonstop barker. I just like to share my thoughts. If you're talking, I'll probably have something to say about it. If dinner is running late, expect a few comments. If we're headed out on an adventure, you'll definitely hear my excitement. Some people call it sass; I call it excellent communication skills. When I'm not busy chatting, you'll probably find me in the water. I absolutely LOVE to swim, splash, and play. A pond, pool, creek, lake, sprinkler—if it's wet, I'm interested. Water is my happy place, and I'd love a family who enjoys outdoor adventures as much as I do. I'm a sweet, social guy who enjoys making new friends and being part of the action. At 60 pounds, I'm a sturdy pup, but I'm still young and excited to learn new things. Whether we're exploring the great outdoors, going for a walk, or relaxing at home, I'll be right by your side—offering companionship, loyalty, and the occasional opinion. If you're looking for a friendly, water-loving best friend who will keep you laughing and always be ready for the next adventure, I might be the perfect match. Hope to meet you soon! Love, Gunner

Hey there, I am Gordy aka Gordon (when I’m not listening) and Gordito Crunch (when my foster mama is playing with me)! I am a 5 year old Great Dane/Great Pyrenees mix. That just means I’m extra great of course! I have the Great Dane height and body but a Great Pyrenees head with the Pyrenees shedding.  I was originally surrendered as a puppy due to having special back legs. I was adopted to a wonderful family but returned back to rescue because of my sensitivity to frequent visitors. I get that from the Great Pyrenees side - I feel the need to protect my home and yard.  I love hard and love attention from my humans but don’t enjoy people I don’t know initially when they enter my home. I take my job of protecting the home seriously and need my humans to prove to me that they can control and protect the house so I don’t have to worry about it. I really respect boundaries and expectations that are presented to me by my humans!  I  graduated a 5 week board and train program  in 2023. I have strong obedience skills and am looking for a home who can hold me accountable to those skills. I know how to walk well on leash, the place command, heel, come and all of the other skills I need to be a well mannered boy. I am trained with an eCollar and a prong collar for walking. My future family should be comfortable with those training tools.  I really love to play with toys and other dog friends. I’m a total goofball but have shown resource guarding over food with other dogs. I prefer to eat my food and bones in my kennel or in a separate room from other dogs however, as I get older I am much more relaxed. I am also good with cats though have never lived with one.  I really love my kennel. I will sleep there at night, when my foster parents are gone or when there are visitors at the house. I can also be left out to free roam at night though I prefer to sleep next to my foster parents bed or in the hallway so I can keep a watchful eye on my humans.  Remember how I was surrendered as a puppy due to having special legs? Well, I still have special back legs. I was born with slightly twisted femurs so I walk a bit differently and have arthritis in my back knees. I love to run and play but can be sore after playing all day long so I occasionally take gabapentin to help. I also require daily joint supplements to help my bones stay healthy. I have a pet insurance policy that will be transferred to a potential adopter - they will be expected to continue to keep that in place after adopting me.  Foster Mama Here:Gordy is the bestest boy. We fostered him when he was a puppy as well. We do not let him greet new visitors at our house and require him to stay on his bed in a “place” while visitors are here or in his kennel. He does like to meet people slowly and at a good pace. We would walk his adoptive family through the intro process that he is successful with. Once he knows and trusts you he will forever welcome you as a family member of his.  Gordy has so much potential and loves so hard. But he will require owners who can set strict boundaries in the home and hold him accountable. His breed and genetics make him want to protect his home and people but if you a set boundaries he is such a great listener. We walk him on a prong collar and he is eCollar trained. His adopters will need to commit to continued use of these training tools and also meeting with his board and train trainer to learn about everything he knows. Gordy is muzzle trained. He is great at the groomer! Gordy loves the snow and playing outside. His favorite is his doggy pool in the summer. We have 4 other dogs in our home and he plays with all of them.  Gordy lived with kids in his first home. He was very protective over them so we do not recommend he go to a home with children under the age of 12. He could thrive in the country as he will bark when he sees humans and dogs walking by the home. ##954057##

Hi there, Zeus here!! I’m a 1-year-old Great Dane who just celebrated my first birthday — woot woot! I was surrendered because my family lived in a small apartment, and while apartment living can totally work for Great Danes, I’m a big, energetic, goofy teenage boy and was just a little more than they could handle. Since coming to rescue, I’ve been living on a farm with some other doggos and doing great! I love playing with my friends along the fence line, and I recently got to run some serious zoomies with another Dane. And let me tell you... I play exactly like you’d expect a toddler Great Dane to play: full speed, all limbs, absolutely no awareness of where my body ends. Suddenly everyone understands why apartment life wasn't for me. I’ve been told that I did well at dog parks in my previous home, and I love everyone I meet. However, I do have a history of resource guarding around other dogs, particularly with treats. I have growled and lunged when another dog has approached something I consider valuable. While I’ve otherwise done well with other dogs, this is a behavior my forever family needs to take seriously. Treats, food, chews, and other high-value items will need to be carefully managed around other animals, and my family will need to continue working on this behavior through training. Because I’m a very large dog, the rescue wants to make sure my future family understands this behavior and is prepared to manage it safely. I came into rescue with basically zero training, zero impulse control, and approximately zero manners. That means it’s up to my forever family to continue working with me, giving me structure, and setting me up for success. I’m only one, so I have lots of learning left to do — and lots of potential! Because of my size, energy, and lack of previous training, training classes will be required in my forever home. If classes involve treatos, I have officially agreed to these terms. A little more about me: Great with people Good with kiddos Good with other doggos Cats? No idea! Professional zoomie enthusiast Still learning that being 100+ pounds does not make me a lap-sized toddler I’m a happy, go-lucky, goofy young Dane looking for a family who understands that I’m not a finished product. I need consistency, boundaries, training, safe management around resources, and someone committed to helping me grow into the very best giant gentleman I can be. Think you have the home I need? Send in your application and the rescue team will help connect us! ##2820742##

Here is what one of our amazing fosters have to say about Dakota...."Super freaking sweet, loves loves belly rubs, is very strong when you walk him but listens well. VERY treat motivated and knows sit down paw and i just taught him roll over yesterday but its a work in progress 😝. Super playful, he will pounce around you and then roll over for belly rubs and absolutely melts for the belly rubs and kisses" I love playing and running with my doggy friends, however, I can lay at your feet very sweetly to beg for your attention. I am kind of like a "reverse" planter as well. I mean, you plant it and i will un-plant it for you :D I won't do it often, just when I want your attention and I am outside alone. So see?? you have great control over that urge! So I am a food and toy lover too, I eat out of a slow feeder bowl because wolfing down my food is not an option!

I am two VERY loyal breeds and once I know you are my family, you will have my unending love :) Local adoption fee is $300(in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $550 (includes transport to your area)

WE ARE A TX-BASED RESCUE. THIS DOG IS CURRENTLY LOCATED IN TX AND WILL BE TRANSPORTED UPON ADOPTION. Please fill out an adoption application at haydudeequine.org Meet HollyBerry ✨🍓 4 years old | 65 lbs | Certified Goofball | Professional Best Friend If joy had a mascot, it would be HollyBerry — and she would be sprinting toward you at full speed with a toy in her mouth and zero personal space boundaries. 😄 💖 THE GOOD STUFF (aka: Why You’ll Fall in Love Instantly) ✅ Sweet as pie (like… the kind your grandma brags about) ✅ Professional goofball — laughs guaranteed ✅ Endless energy — always ready for an adventure ✅ Elite-level cuddler — snuggles are her superpower ✅ Social butterfly — LOVES people ✅ Confidence: 100/10 ✅ Eager to please — truly wants to be a good girl ✅ Fetch champion — seriously, she lives for it 😅 THE “LET’S BE HONEST” SECTION ❌ Thinks chain-link fences are more of a suggestion than a rule ❌ Can have a little too much fabulousness for some dogs ❌ Too big + enthusiastic for small kids and cats ❌ Likes to gently hold your hand… with her mouth (it’s weirdly sweet, we promise) 🐾 THE HEARTBEAT BEHIND THE GOOBER Holly’s story is one of second chances and big hope. Over a year ago, she was just moments away from being euthanized in a rural Texas shelter. She was saved in the nick of time and moved to what was supposed to be a temporary outdoor setup. But temporary turned into a long wait. And Holly? She’s still waiting. Despite it all, she is overflowing with love.
