CFGDR - Danes in Rescue

Rescue Danes

Note: Double click on any of the pictures to enlarge them.

Please note – a fenced yard is required for most of our Danes, especially puppies and young adults. Very few Danes are cleared for adoption into a home with small children or small dogs. Those Danes that are safe with either/or a small dog or child are noted accordingly. Dane pups and young adults do best in homes that have had Danes before and have another younger, large, playful dog to help wear them out.

	The information below is what we know of the past history of the dog and and their behavior while in rescue. Dogs do behave different in different situations. While we do expect they will act the same way once adopted, it is impossible to predict the future behavior of any dog.


	Bertha - a 3 year old Boston brindle female. She is supposed to be 3/4 Dane, 1/4 St. Bernard. Bertha is crate trained and housebroken. She is very eager to please, very trainable, and calm for her age. A fenced yard is required. Bertha does not do well with other female dogs, and is also dominant with other male dogs. She does not handle change well, has some separation anxiety and needs a very obedience oriented, large dog savvy home.


	Copper - a really sweet 2 year old fawn male with natural ears, but he is a handful. Copper is housebroken, crate trained good with other dogs, but does slobber some. Being a typical young Dane - he's too rough for small dogs or small children, and no cats, birds or other small animals. Copper was a stray and was found very emaciated. He has gained weight nicely and is now ready for adoption. Copper is on hold!


	Aroo - a 2 year old Boston male with natural ears. He is housebroken, crate trained and good with larger dogs. He is a very sweet boy, but needs continued work on manners and obedience, and a home with a 6 ft. fence. Aroo came to us very emaciated. He is gaining weight and muscle nicely, but still needs to gain more weight.


	Stella - a 5 year old black female with natural ears. So far, she seems housebroken, crate trained, and pretty calm and well behaved. She is supposed to be good with other dogs and cats. We don't know how she does around children.


	Tyson - a 2.5 year old fawn male with natural ears. So far, he seems sweet. He is supposed to be housebroken, crate trained, good with other dogs, cats and older children (10 and up). He has learned some bad habits and needs work on manners and obedience.


	Marble - a 4 year old Boston merle female with natural ears. She is supposed to be good with other dogs, cats and children 11 and up. Marble may have a new home!


	Jasmine - a 3 year old female Brindle with cropped ears. She is really sweet. Jasmine is housebroken, crate trained, not destructive and good with other dogs. We don't know how Jasmine will do with children, as she has never lived with them. Jasmine will do best in a calm, quiet household.


	New Addition - Angel - a super sweet 2 year old mostly white, Harlequin. She is DEAF and has limited vision. Angel is really sweet, cuddly, good with other dogs, cats and children 5 and up. Angel has separation anxiety and needs a home where someone is home most of the time.


	Incoming 2-1 - Astro - a calmer adult blue male with cropped ears. He is supposed to be really sweet, but malnourished and not in the best condition. He is supposed to be good with other dogs, large and small. He will need some time to gain weight and rehab.


	Incoming - Apollo - a really sweet 2.5 year old merlequin male with natural ears. He is supposed to be good with other dogs, likely OK with cats, and well behaved. Since he has been living in a kennel situation, he likely will need a little work on housebreaking.


	Incoming - We have many Danes that we are working on making room for in rescue. The number of surrender requests and Danes in shelters has dramatically increased this past year. We are always in need of more foster homes and volunteers.
