Story
Ellie was originally adopted from GDFRL and has found herself needing to come back by no fault of her own. Due to family emergencies her owner has to move out of the country and where she is moving Danes are a banned beed :( &#239&#187&#191 Ellie is very youthful 5 year old great dane. She is literally up for any adventure. She loves walking, hiking, visiting stores etc. However, she is all for a good, all day nap sometimes. She does like creature comforts so a nice couch is a requirement:) She is not a fan of water but will follow you in as long as you are going together. She does get zoomies occasionally and it is just so adorable to see her goofy self. She loves playing with her ball and actually brings it back most of the time. She is not a morning person but if that is required by your schedule, she’ll just go back to sleep after her breakfast and potty break. She loves almost all food except, strangely, cheese. Her stomach is iron strong and she can have a variety of treats without any GI side effects. She loves hot dogs and chicken jerky as well as bread and potatoes. She is very good with commands and very motivated by praise. Good with other dogs. Inside cats are fine but if she sees stray outside, she will chase it ( I think she thinks they are squirrels). She is good with people as long as they let her approach them first. She has been in multiple festival settings but due to her size, there needs to be a lot of space so she doesn't get overwhelmed. She is really good in the car, loves getting rides. She is spayed, pexied and just had full physical including extensive lab work and she was pronounced in perfect health by her doctor. Ellie is completely house trained and doesn't require a crate. If interested in Ellie please email us at info@greatdanefriends.com for an application. She is fostered in Greenville SC *****Great Dane Friends of Ruff Love covers NC and surrounding states for adoptions. We require a fenced yard (exceptions made on a case by case basis - NO exceptions for puppies or deaf/vision impaired dogs - no invisible fencing), that stairs in the home be covered with some sort of slip resistant material to prevent injury, that all other animals in the home be up to date on vaccinations as well as spayed/neutered and that all dogs live inside as a part of the family. Our approval process consists of an application, vet and reference checks, phone interview and house check. Please email us for an application or if you have any questions.*****   May 5, 2024, 10:26 am

Story
Mace is an almost 3 year old Great Dane who just got neutered and is ready to find his forever home! Mace is a big cuddly baby who will pick his favorite person to bond to. Mace is dog friendly, however he is a little under socialized and doesn’t really know how to be a dog sometimes. ⭐️Mace is very shy at first and it took him over 2 weeks to really bond and show affection ⭐️he has separation anxiety and can break out of a wire crate. Whoever adopts him I would highly recommend looking into an “indestructible” crate. ⭐️he will pee on things. This isn’t a potty training issue, it’s a marking issue. You’ll have to make sure everything in your house is easy to clean while he settles in. ⭐️he walks great on a leash 95% of the time, but that other 5% he is a BIG strong boy⭐️he is easily spooked in public and could use some confidence building. He responds great to positive reinforcement training⭐️Mace has lived with kids but would do best with older kids since he doesn’t understand how big he is Whoever adopts Mace needs to understand that owning a giant breed dog can be a complete lifestyle change and a major commitment. He’s a really great boy! But he is going to need a calm decompression period while he gets to know his new family.Please visit our website, www.colonialcapitalhs.org to fill out an application today!
