My story

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

LOCATION: Minden, Louisiana
DOB: 5/17/2014

When you look back on today, you will remember this as the day you first met the beautiful and grand Dakota. Her foster mom calls her “an angel” and all the girls at the vet’s office gush over how sweet and well behaved she is.

Miss Dakota may be a senior gal but with all that life experience comes wisdom. Dakota is potty trained, crate trained and knows some obedience commands such as Sit, Go Potty and Up. She loves car rides and going for walks.

One of her favorite things to do is hold down the couch and snuggle up with a toy and a human. She is not a Velcro Dane but she does love to get her loving. She also will bury her head in your lap for neck scratches. If you stop and she isn't done, she will give you the paw, or nudge/flip your hand up to get more.

She has been around other dogs and isn’t afraid to speak her mind with them if needed. She would best thrive in a home where she is the only dog, or a home with a low-key male dog (she doesn't want to share her space with female dogs). She does want her food all to herself and needs to be fed separately from other dogs.

Cats? Easy-peasy-like a walk in the park.

Dakota can get nervous around tiny humans. Her ideal home would have children over the age of twelve.

She’s hoping her new family would be okay letting her sleep in the bed with them. She promises to be respectful of your space and not be all up in your business.

Her right rear paw does have a pronounced deformity. Her foster family calls it her “bunny foot.” The vet said it’s ok but she will need to be monitored for arthritis as she goes along. She can run, spin, play tug-o-war and so far has not stopped her from being pretty amazing. And if she is given a squeaky ball to play with, you've pretty much made her day, week, and year. Nail trims are not as fantastic of a time for sweet Dakota. She has those done at the vet's office.

Dakota was with one family for her whole life. Due to unforeseen circumstances out of her control, she is now looking for her second, and hopefully, last family. Will you be that family for her?

More about this rescue

To rescue Great Danes from neglect, abuse, and abandonment while providing medical care and individual rehabilitation through our experienced and loving foster home program until we are able to provide each rescued Dane with a qualified, caring, and permanent home that will ensure a good quality of life they deserve.

To assist owners that cannot afford spaying, neutering or heartworm treatment as funds allow while also educating owners on affordable, local spay/neuter clinics, spay/neuter benefits, vaccinations, backyard breeding, behavior, nutrition, and obedience. Additionally, we want to be a link point to other rescues and clubs. Raising awareness around rescues and the Great Dane breed is of great importance to us.

We have been rescuing Great Danes since 2011 and we take pride in the collective love, concern, and dedication we have given to the misunderstood and forgotten Danes. It is our mission to continue to be the voices of the less fortunate Danes and to provide them safety and their birthright to a quality of life filled with love and dignity. You can help us achieve our mission by donating funds, items from our wishlist, items of relevance, your time through volunteering, or by lending your home as a foster.
