My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Gunny is a Blue Male Great Dane, approximately 6 years old. He came to us as a neglect case, severely underweight, with an upper respiratory infection and Happy Tail. Since coming into rescue, he’s been getting several small meals throughout the day and is slowly putting on weight. Due to his condition, it’s not surprising that this boy loves to eat! He does tend to scarf down his food so a slow feeder will be needed for him. As he’s healing, his personality is really starting to shine through and we’re seeing that he is a very happy boy! He gets the Zoomies a few times a day and it’s best to stay out of his way when he’s doing so! Gunny is a typical great Dane and doesn’t know his size yet, so running directly at you doesn’t seem like a bad idea in his mind (and his brakes don’t work that well yet J) When he’s not exploring the back yard, this boy loves to hang out on the couch and keep you company. He is the epitome of a Velcro dog and will be your shadow wherever you go. Gunny has done well with all other dogs he’s come into contact with and currently resides with another Great Dane who he enjoys following around. During the day he hangs out with his foster brother and they spend their day holding down the sofa in the living room. We would prefer he go to a home with another dog as he does tend to have some anxiety when left alone. Unfortunately Gunny is also a jumper. This will require his approved adopter to have a 6’ privacy fence around their yard, NO exceptions.
