Rescue Danes

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

Please note – a fenced yard is required for many of our Danes, especially puppies and young adults. Most young Danes are too rough for homes with smaller children and small dogs. 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. Miranda - a really sweet 5 year old, mostly white DEAF female with natural ears.  She is extremely friendly, housebroken, crate trained, not destructive, good with other dogs, cats, horses and children.  She is a happy-go-luck dog that wakes you up every day with a smile.  Pascha - a very small 1.5 year old female brindle with natural ears.  She has been pretty malnourished, which is why we think she is so small.  Pascha has gained weight nicely but is in heat again.  She will not be available for about 6 weeks. Maya - a 9 month old mostly white DEAF female with natural ears.  Maya is an energetic, clumsy, and loving companion!  Expect her to take time training, as she is deaf and has limited vision in her left eye causing depth perception problems.  She loves to please and wants to be a lap dog!  She can handle being alone for the day in company of another play mate.  She needs a patient family with older children to help continue to teacher her sign signals. She is housebroken to use the dog door.  She does not do well in a crate.  Caleb - a 22 month old black male with natural ears.  He is really sweet, housebroken, and crate trained.  Caleb is good with other dogs and cats.  Caleb is a rough player, and needs a home with another young, large and playful dog to help wear him out. He is a very co-dependent dog and has to have another dog in the home.  Caleb is too rough for children under 8 or 9 years old. Lucy - a 5 year old female merle with natural ears.  She is really sweet, very thin, and her ex-owners have been charged with neglect for the condition she was in.  She will need to gain some weight and get healthy before she can be spayed and adopted. Lucy should be available in 3 - 4 weeks.  Lucy can be a bit on the stubborn side, and needs work on obedience.

Paisley - a 7 month old Dane, or possibly Dane/Lab mix. She is really sweet, doing well with crate training and doing well with housebreaking and good with older children.  So far, she seems calm and well behaved for her age.  Paisley is a bit on the shy side and needs work to overcome submissive peeing.  Paisley is good with other dogs, but may do best as an only dog.  Tilly - a one year old Harlequin female with natural ears.  She is really sweet, learning crate training and housebreaking.  She is a little on the shy side, and needs some socialization.  Tilly has Demodectic mange (an immune system problem).  We are treating this by putting her on a raw diet - the quickest way we have found to treat Demodectic mange.  Tilly will do best in a home with another large, young, rough playing dog.  Starbuck - a friendly 1 year old mis-marked Boston female with natural ears.  She is housebroken, crate trained, good with other dogs and older children.  Starbuck will do best in a home with another dog. Boomer - a friendly 1 year Harlequin female with natural ears.  She is housebroken, crate trained, good with other dogs, but on the rough side.  She needs a good sized fenced yard and another young, large and playful dog in the home to help wear her out.  Since Boomer is on the rough side, a home without small dogs or small children is best. Stella - a 2 year old black female with natural ears.  She is a bit on the shy side, especially with men.  She seems to be housebroken, crate trained and good with other dogs.  Stella will do best in a home with a young, large and outgoing dog. Jet - a large 4 year old black male with natural ears.  So far, he seems really sweet, calm and well behaved.  He appears to be housebroken, not destructive and good with children.  He needs a large dog or Dane experienced home that can handle a slightly dominant dog.  Jet is on hold, due to a fractured foot. Bosco - a 2 year old merle with natural ears.  He is housebroken, crate trained, good with other dogs and older children.  He does not do well as an only dog, so he must have a home with another dog.  He needs to have surgery on his leg (approx $500 - $600), so we're working to raise funds to help pay for that. Ginger - a 7 month old black female with natural ears.  She is really sweet, but a bit shy with strangers.  She seems to be housebroken, crate trained, good with other dogs and cats.  Sully - a 1.5 year old merle male with natural ears.  He is housebroken, crate trained, good with other dogs and really sweet. He is calm and well behaved for his age. Bertha - a 6 week old Boston merle female.  She is one of three motherless pups turned into rescue, they are 3/4 Danes 1/4 St. Bernard.  The pups are having some minor medical issues, that we are working on.  They will not be available until they are old/large enough to be spayed/neutered. Olive - a 6 week old Brindle female.  She is one of three motherless pups turned into rescue, they are 3/4 Danes 1/4 St. Bernard.  The pups are having some minor medical issues, that we are working on.  They will not be available until they are old/large enough to be spayed/neutered. Bernard - a 6 week old Boston Brindle male.  He is one of three motherless pups turned into rescue, they are 3/4 Danes 1/4 St. Bernard.  The pups are having some minor medical issues, that we are working on.  They will not be available until they are old/large enough to be spayed/neutered. New Addition - a 3 year old Brindle female with natural ears.  So far, she seems sweet, housebroken, crate trained, and good with other dogs.  She is good with children and supposed to be good with cats.  She needs entropion surgery (for her eyelids).
