Story
This beautiful 2-year-old female Great Dane is ready for a fresh start and a family of her own. She will do best in a home with giant breed experience and a securely fenced yard. She is currently in foster home with other giant breed dogs and cats.She is house trained, wonderful on a leash, and rides perfectly in the car or truck. She is a true Velcro dog who loves being close to her people and would make an excellent hiking buddy. She is crate trained but prefers a home where her humans are around most of the time.She does well with kids and cats and is compatible with male giant-breed dogs. She is not suitable for homes with small or medium dogs and prefers male dogs her size or larger.She had a difficult beginning in life after being confined for breeding, but despite that, she is incredibly loving and eager to become a cherished family member.If you have experience with giant breeds and are looking for a loyal, affectionate companion, she may be the perfect match.

Story
  Thor is a one-year-old Great Dane and Lab mix weighing 71 pounds, and his story already reads like the opening scene of a movie. Found running loose through a Tennessee neighborhood, this big, beautiful boy was moments away from tragedy when fate—and a young dog lover—stepped in. Twice Thor ran in front of her car, and instead of driving on, she stopped, opened her door, and called to him. Without hesitation, Thor leapt into the back seat as if he knew his life was about to change. And it did.   With no collar and no microchip, Thor became part of Critter Cavalry Rescue and stayed with the very woman who saved him. From the moment he was safe, his true nature began to shine. Thor is strikingly handsome, with chiseled features and expressive ears that nearly stand straight up, giving him a regal, alert look—like a show dog who wandered off the Westminster runway and into a superhero origin story.   But don’t let the model looks fool you. Thor is pure joy wrapped in a giant puppy body. He tosses toys into the air, pounces on squeaky treasures, and delights in balls and stuffed animals with the enthusiasm of a dog who is still discovering how fun life can be. He doesn’t quite realize how big or strong he is yet, but his heart is gentle and his spirit is eager.   Thor is intelligent, focused, and deeply people-oriented. When you work with him, he locks onto you completely, especially if treats are involved, which makes training both effective and fun. He is wonderful with other dogs, showing no dominance or alpha behavior, just friendly curiosity and easygoing charm. Recently neutered, Thor is still growing and will likely fill out into a solid 90-pound adult over the next year.   He is housebroken and currently learning that being alone doesn’t mean being abandoned, as crates aren’t quite his favorite place. Thor simply loves people and wants to be near them, soaking in companionship and reassurance. His liver-and-black coat shifts with the sunlight, turning heads wherever he goes, and making him unforgettable long after he’s passed by.   Thor is the kind of dog who comes into your life once and leaves a permanent mark on your heart. He is waiting for someone to guide him, shape him, and grow with him into the extraordinary companion he is clearly meant to be.     If you are interested in making this big boy a big part of your life please write to Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrtennessee@gmail.com. Tell us where you live, city and state.   We adopt to Tennessee where our rescue is based and he is being fostered, but we also transport to the Northeast   ADOPTION FEE REQUIRED.

Story
🐾 Meet Clyde! 🐾 This large, handsome beast is Clyde, a full-blooded Great Dane just over a year old. He came to KVPP in a very malnourished state, but after months of TLC in his foster home, he’s healthy, happy, and ready for his forever home! Clyde is a sweet, loving boy who adores all people and wants to play with every dog he meets. He’s fully potty trained and would thrive in a home with a large, fenced yard and other large, playful dogs to help him practice manners. Important note: Clyde is deaf, so he will require a patient adopter with experience in deaf dogs or large breed dogs—no exceptions. Training commands takes a little longer, but he’s highly treat-motivated and has already made great progress. Clyde is a curious, clumsy, giant toddler who will explore anything in reach, especially food or drinks left out. His foster mom says he’s a lovable “giant toddler” you can’t leave unattended—but he gets away with everything because he’s so sweet! Clyde would not be suited for homes with small children or elderly adults, as he still doesn’t realize his size. He thinks he’s a lap dog, just like his 15-lb foster sister. 📍 Fostered in Knoxville, TN 🐶 Full-blooded Great Dane | ~1 year old 💰 Adoption fee: $400 💛 Apply to adopt: knoxvintagepetproject.com/adopt
