Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Mercedes is a 10 month old Great Dane puppy that came in to rescue with her littermate Lexus. Not much is known about their past, but Mercedes has put the past behind her, and is excited about her future! Mercedes is all puppy! And a big one at that! She demands inclusion, and is completely at the ready for any action that might come her way! She is highly food motivated, and learned "sit" in 2 sessions when a coveted food item was the result! Mercedes is incredibly sweet, and would love to be petted and adored all day long. She is currently in a foster home that works remote, and she hangs out in her foster mom's office all day long.
Mercedes loves to investigate, and will chew up anything she deems chewable, so she does need a close eye kept on her. She is learning boundaries and is working hard to learn obedience basics. She is a pro, with the right treat! She is very smart, and eager to please-sometimes a little too eager. Her adoption contract will have a training contract addendum to make sure she stays on the right track in a new home.
Mercedes is currently living in a home with 5 other Great Danes. She gets along beautifully with the males in the home, but has challenged the foster home's female senior Great Dane a few times. The foster home has redirected this behavior, but an adopter should be savvy enough to have slow meetings with any dog on walks etc. She does do fine with her female sibling but they have been together all of their lives. Ideally, an male only canine home would be best for Mercedes but she would do well in a one dog home that gives her the attention she needs.
Mercedes will make a fantastic addition to any home that can channel her puppy energy for success. Mercedes will reward the effort endlessly with boundless love and affection. Mercedes came into MAGDRL August 2024
