Great Dane puppies and dogs in Mount Joy, Pennsylvania

-

Current Location: Rockville, MD Hello! My name is Skye! I'm coming to OPH on 1/9/2026. Please check back soon for updates on my personality, and to see adorable new photos. I’m looking for my forever family! Is that with you? If so please click “apply for adoption” or submit an application through the Adopt tab. Let’s get our family started!

PLEASE NOTE! Unless stated otherwise, our dogs and puppies are located in Arkansas, and transported to the north/northeast once adopted. We do occasionally have dogs/puppies placed in foster homes in the north/northeast. In the cases where the pet is somewhere other than Arkansas, it will be noted beside the name of the pet.Arkansas or nearby! Waylon is a 2 yr old Great Dane who came into rescue after he was found as a stray. He was in horrific shape and barely survived the level of starvation he endured. But he did survive and he is thriving now! Waylon is still slowly gaining weight, and has almost reached his ideal weight. He is VERY tall. He is so sweet and loving. He want to sit in your lap and cuddle with you, as if he is a 10lb lap dog rather than 120 lb Dane. While in his foster home, he has done well with most other dogs, but it is very structured and his time with other dogs is limited. He does seem to have a jealoys streak and is possessive of his people. He does great in a doggy daycare setting and has spent lots of time in daycare, doing very well with most dogs there. I think this is a lot different than how he will behave in a home setting with other dogs sharing his humans attention. For this reason, we would love to see him adopted into a home where he can be the only dog. He is not a candidate for a home with young kids. He is just too big and clumsy, and he really wants all the attention. I feel the he may become jealous of little kids and view them as competition. We just really want to set him up for success. He's been through enough in his short life amd we want it to be easy from here on our. Waylon holds a very special place in my heart. Hes been in my home through it all- recovering from starvation, happy tail and subsequent tail amputation, heartworm treatment. The odds were stacked against him, but he made it and now he's ready to find his own home. Waylon is located in Alexander, AR. We would prefer a local adopter, within driving distance. I think that transport would be really hard on him.

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.
