🐾👑 Meet J.B. – the KING of charm and goofiness!

Now he’s looking for his forever kingdom! 🏡✨ He's fully vetted and weighs a whopping 72 lbs! He's dog friendly although the jury's still out on cats. He hasn't met those strange creatures yet. He loves people and kids! 💜🥰 💪 He's strong as an ox – if you’re not prepared, he’ll happily “walk” you instead. (He is royalty after all.) J.B. is searching for an active family who can keep up with his royal adventures 🌍 – whether that’s running 🏃, hiking ⛰️, swimming 💦, or walking 🚶… you’ll most likely be following behind him because, well, KING. 👑 📍 Located in Cleveland, TN 🚐 Transport available to other states 💵 Adoption fee: $150 Are you ready to be J.B.’s loyal subject? 🐾💕

Story
He is good with female dogs and potentially neutered male dogs. He is friendly and does fine at the vet. Shots will be updated before rehoming. He weighs roughly 170lbs. Has some skin allergies We are deeply saddened to see him go to a new home, but unfortunately we are just not the right home for him. Our mail goal is to get him a family that will love and cherish him.

Story
Atlas was born in July of 2024, we picked him up from a reputable breeder and he is AKC registered as a pure bread Great Dane with both a Merle and harlequin coat. He loves people, is very talkative, likes going on walks and kills beetles for us. He would love to be a lap dog, but will not get on furniture without permission. He's great with our kids and is not aggressive towards any other animals (he does get excited but never mean). We feed him salmon and potato dog food from Sam's Club. He's allergic to something that we havent quite pin pointed, but what he eats now does not trigger his allergies. He's crate trained (XXL crate included if you want) nd potty trained. He can sit and shake. He is also very easy to walk with a gentle leader. He's a good watch dog- he'll bark but only 2-3x. Honestly, he is a very good boy and it kills me to rehome him. He deserves a good life.

Story
Breaker is up for adoption in TX, NE and PNW (excluding MA)! Meet Breaker – Your Adventure Buddy in the Making! Breaker is a handsome Great Dane mix a little over a year old who is ready to find an active, committed family to call his own. At around 65 pounds, he’s a wonderful blend of big-dog presence and goofy puppy charm. Breaker is currently being fostered in Seguin, TX, but he can be transported to the Pacific Northwest and the Northeast United States for the right home. Breaker thrives on activity and would do best as the only dog in the household, where he can soak up all the attention and structure he craves. He still has that classic puppy energy, so he’s looking for a family that understands the importance of positive correction, consistency, and continued training to help him grow into the best version of himself. With the right guidance, Breaker is eager to learn and please. One of Breaker’s favorite things in the world is going on adventures. He absolutely loves riding in the car and would be thrilled to tag along for hikes, outings, road trips, or any fun day spent exploring with his people. Water is another big favorite—splashing, wading, and cooling off are right up his alley. When playtime rolls around, Breaker is all in. He loves toys of all kinds and enjoys playing with dogs his own size. Most of all, Breaker wants to be with his people. He would happily spend the entire day with his family, whether that means being on the go or just hanging out together. If you’re an active household looking for a loyal, fun-loving companion to share life’s adventures, Breaker may be the perfect match for you.
