Meet Benelli! If you’ve ever dreamed of sharing your home with a gentle giant who is equal parts sweet and silly, Benelli may be your girl! This beautiful Great Dane is a big dog with an even bigger heart, and she has the goofy personality to match her impressive size. Benelli is truly the gentlest giant. She is a sweet-natured girl who loves being around her people and is always ready to bring a little joy wherever she goes. Her goofy gal personality is sure to keep you smiling, and she would love a large cough (or bed) to nap on. Benelli is also a social sweetheart who has done well with dogs, cats, and children. She would love a family who will appreciate her gentle nature, silly personality, and all the love she has to give. An important note is that she will need a home with short stairs, or a one-story home as steep stairs are too much for her. Big dog, gentle soul, goofy personality, and a heart full of love. Benelli is ready to find her forever family! *Benelli is currently available through our foster-to-adopt program. If you are interested in welcoming her into your home, please inquire with our Adoption Center to learn more about the program and the next steps!

Flora is only six months old, but there is already something wonderfully calm and thoughtful about her. She is gentle with little kids, respectful with cats, sweet with other dogs and perfectly content entertaining herself with a toy in the grass. Everyone who meets Flora seems to fall in love with her soft, easygoing presence. Go watch Flora on YouTube to see her sweet personality in action and find out exactly what her DNA test revealed. If you want to skip ahead (but why would you) results are at the 2 minute mark. https://youtu.be/dBsMqKiJqJo?si=KDzS2gSNbTIUadua That’s right- we do not have to guess Flora’s breed mix! Her foster was as curious as we were and sent off a DNA test! Lucky you, there is no 6 week wait time and the results show that she is a Rottweiler and Great Dane mix. She is still growing and will likely become a fairly large dog, but so far, she carries herself with a gentleness and maturity that feel well beyond her six months. Flora is fostered in a busy, loving home with dogs and cats. Most of the resident dogs are older and not particularly interested in keeping a puppy entertained all day, but Flora handles that beautifully. She will happily carry a toy or chewy bone outside, settle into the grass, putter around sniffing and enjoy her own company. She does not need another dog to be happy, though she does enjoy friendly, lighthearted dogs that like to play without being overly rough. Flora currently lives with small dogs and thrives with them. She is also genuinely wonderful with cats. Flora lives with them and remained calm and respectful when she met our house cat, even while he ran, jumped, played and attempted to stalk her. She was unfazed and showed no interest in chasing or bothering him. Flora has spent time with children ranging from two to 15 years old and has been wonderful with them. She is still a growing puppy and may occasionally jump when excited, but she has shown impressive mindfulness and gentleness around smaller children. At home, Flora has been an incredibly easy addition. She is both house and crate trained, has basic leash skills and responds well to direction. She is highly treat motivated, intelligent and eager to learn. Her best match will be someone excited to continue her training, building her confidence and give that thoughtful puppy brain plenty of positive things to do. Flora’s foster truly has nothing but praise for her. She is sweet, content, beautifully gentle and already such a lovely companion. She could live in a house or apartment as long as her family is prepared for her eventual size and committed to giving this intelligent girl the continued training, socialization and reassurance she needs to keep growing into her very best self.

Our lovely three year old Great Dane, Moose, answers to many names of Moose, Moosey, and Lucy from the phrase loosey-goosey because he’s more limbs than body sometimes. He tends to be a clumsy goober, especially when treats and a fun game of tug of war is involved. He loves playing with those huge rope toys, and his favorite pastime is definitely being outside digging and exploring. We unfortunately have to find a new home for him due to us moving. We really don’t want to lose our dog to the last choice of a shelter so hopefully we find the perfect family for him here! He is neutered and has a harness, leash, crate and muzzle included. Please reach out to me if interested.

This happy little guy seems to wake up every morning convinced it's going to be the best day ever. By the time you've spent five minutes with him, you'll probably feel the same way. Between his floppy ears that bounce with every happy trot, his goofy puppy antics, and his excitement over absolutely everything, Flame has a way of making even ordinary days feel a little brighter. He lives in a loving foster home with kids and other dogs and he really is a wonderful puppy ready to join your family! Watch Flame's video and see why everyone falls in love with him: https://youtu.be/O9ROagYIIZ8?si=xDvPFgo980uC7xbx At approximately 6 months old and currently 45 pounds, Flame is our best guess at a Pittie Dane mix, but with animal rescue, it's always a mystery! His foster family is guessing part Dane because of his long legs, big feet, and goofy demeanor. Whatever breeds came together to create this handsome boy, they gave him the sweetest personality, the cutest floppy ears, and the perfect balance of playful puppy energy and laid-back cuddles. Flame is everything you'd hope for in a puppy. He's friendly, social, curious, and always excited to make a new friend. He approaches life with so much enthusiasm that it's hard not to smile watching him explore the world around him. Whether he's trotting around with one of his favorite toys, investigating something new, or simply soaking up all the attention he can get, Flame is happiest when he's included in the fun. Speaking of toys... this boy loves them! He enjoys chasing after toys, proudly carrying them around, and playing a good game of tug-of-war. He's still working on the whole "bring it back" part of fetch, but he certainly has the chasing part mastered. Once playtime is over, though, Flame is more than happy to settle down for some affection. He's a sweet, loving puppy who enjoys being close to his people and has a wonderful off-switch after he's gotten his puppy energy out. Flame is currently fostered in a home with two precious little girls and other dogs, and he's fitting right in. In fact, one of his favorite places to be is snuggled up in the girls' arms, soaking up all the love and attention they have to give. His gentle, affectionate nature makes him a joy to have around, and he loves being part of whatever his family is doing. He's already crate trained and generally does very well in his kennel. Potty training has also been off to a great start, and he's been learning where the appropriate potty places are. Like any young puppy, he'll likely need a little reminder once he arrives in a brand-new environment, but with consistency, patience, and routine, we expect him to continue making great progress. Flame is also a smart little guy who already knows how to sit and takes treats so gently from your hand. He's eager to learn, loves his treats, and has all the makings of a puppy who will enjoy continuing his training with his forever family. Like all puppies, Flame will need continued socialization, training, and guidance as he grows into adulthood. The time and love you invest in him now will help shape him into the incredible companion he's already well on his way to becoming. If you're looking for a puppy who's equal parts playful sidekick, cuddle buddy, and tiny ray of sunshine, Flame is ready to fill your home with laughter, floppy ears, puppy kisses, and enough happiness to brighten every single day. We are willing to test Flame Tulip with anything you need in order to ensure it's a perfect match. We can make anything happen! Just let us know. https://adopt.animalsfirst.com/animal/62cc8e128b02916730334440/69dd4b3941eb1ebf130a13de Questions?

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 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.
