Great Dane puppies and dogs in Mount Carmel, Pennsylvania

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Meet Walter! Walter is a young Great Dane mix pup with legendary ears — we’re pretty sure he can pick up satellite signals with those things. He’s still growing into them (and into himself), so yes… he’s going to be a big boy. Big body, even bigger heart. Walter is the total package: &#226&#156&#168 Dog friendly &#226&#156&#168 Cat friendly &#226&#156&#168 Kid approved (he LOVES them) He’s a toy enthusiast who’s perfectly happy entertaining himself, but when the toys are done, he’s all about his people. Walter’s signature move? The lean. If you’re petting him, expect a full-body Great Dane lean that says, “Yes, this is my human now.” This smart cookie already knows basic commands, is housetrained, and is working on polishing up his leash manners. He hasn’t been crated, hasn’t been destructive, and clearly understands that good boys don’t chew the furniture. Walter is up to date on vaccines and on monthly flea, tick, and heartworm prevention. He’s being lovingly fostered near Dornsife, PA, and is ready to bring laughter, love, and a whole lot of ear flapping into his forever home. If you’ve been looking for a gentle giant in the making with a goofy side and a heart of gold — Walter is your guy.      Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.IMPORTANT - PLEASE READ Click here for the ADOPTION APPLICATION if you are interested in adopting this pet.

He was loved at some point, maybe when he was a small, fluffy puppy before he grew into the handsome boy he is now, but he remembers being loved. He remembers and he yearns for the love of a family. He wants to be hugged, he wants to be included, he wants to be cared for and he’s learning that’s possible again. HISTORY: Finley was dumped at an overcrowded shelter in Kentucky and put into a crate too small for him to stand up in. A local foster-based rescue pulled him and spent two months getting to know him and putting some much needed weight on him. When he was strong and healthy they contacted Mastiffs to Mutts Rescue to find him the perfect home. Finley is a one-year-old male Great Dane mix. Due to his age, he is not neutered and will not be until he’s at least eighteen months old. PERSONALITY: Finley is at the most wonderful age; old enough to be house trained and young enough to be a puppy. A 115-pound puppy that is eager to learn. He is happy, calm, friendly, playful and cuddly. He easily goes into his crate to eat and sleep but prefers to be with his housemates, both canine and human. His eyes are expressive, and his “wooooo” will clear up any confusion on how he is feeling. You’ll smile every time you hear it which will make his tail way even harder. FAVORITE ACTIVITIES: Finley enjoys playing with his Great Dane foster sister followed by a relaxing antler gnawing session or a nap. He really enjoys people and is very curious about anything that’s happening around him. Butt scratches, ear rubs and chilling with his family are also highlights of his day. MEDICAL ISSUES: Finley will need to be neutered at 18 months or after. WHAT WOULD BE THE BEST KIND OF HOME: Finley looks like an adult, but he is a puppy and needs to be treated and trained as a puppy. He loves dogs of all sizes but he doesn’t read their body language well; he will need a housemate that is comfortable showing him how to be a good dog. He loves to meet new dogs and will immediately ask them to play. Like many big dogs Finley does not know how big he is so would do best in a home with older children and adults that are steady on their feet.Click here to watch a video of Finley.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.

BONDED PAIR WITH LULU! PLEASE SEE LISTING FOR LULU! LULU AND DUKE MAY POTENTIALLY BE ADOPTED SEPARATELY, BUT IT IS PREFERRED THAT THEY ARE ADOPTED TOGETHER! Duke and Lulu are a bonded pair who came into rescue following the death of their owner and loss of their home. As expected after all the changes in their environment and family dynamic the past six months, they seek lots of attention. Both are affectionate, playful and eager to please and would do well in a structured environment with humans who can give them the time and attention they need. Duke seems to be the strong silent type – sitting back observing and taking his cues from Lulu. He warms up right away, while she needs a little time to get comfortable with new people. Both travel in the car extremely well, are crate trained, and have lived peacefully with several inside/outside cats. Their roommates/caretakers report they have high prey drive and do not like Chihuahuas. As far as exposure to children, they have only encountered a 12YO nephew a few times. They both listen considerably well,but could use general manners reinforcement and leash work. If you’re looking to add a pair of loveable, entertaining, in-your-face Danes to your family, then these two are for you! Stay tuned for updates. Please include your home area code and a phone number where a volunteer can reach you when contacting us about an adoption.

Oakley came into rescue through a veterinary office. He is a very under weight, neutered 5 1/2 yrs old and will need time to decompress. He is unknown to young children. However, he is good with children 11 years and up. He appears to like all dogs of every size and shape and loves to play with them. He is not aware of his size so he will need direction when playing too rough. He will have a training contract as he loves to go for walks. However, if given enough lead he will pull you over. He is unknown with cats. If you have a home, would like to meet this boy, and are willing to give him a couch to sleep on, please let us know.
