My personality

My story

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

Gremlin is being fostered in NC.

Howdy, I'm Gremlin, a 6 month old Great Dane, but don't worry, you CAN get
me wet and I won't turn into Spike! I actually LOVE playing in water. My
foster Mommy says I am a gentle giant, but I am still a baby and very
playful. I need to learn my commands by touch because I cannot see or hear.
And, well, I can be a little slower and I need repetitiveness with my
training so I can be a very good boy. My foster Mommy is working with me on
my manners, but I can be a bit slow because I have a great nose for food
wherever it is heehee. It takes me a little time to navigate a new area, but
I will get it, just be patient with me. Right now, I have a Cane Corso
foster sister to play with and I love playing tug and wrestle with her.

I am already potty and crate trained! When I wake in the morning, I will
bark to let you know I has to go outside to do my business. I also walk well
on a leash.

The bestest thing I really love is to have my ears rubbed and to cuddle with
humans. I don't know why they feel squished, after all, I'm the same size as
a chihuahua aren't I LOL

I just want my very own family to love me and guide me along my journey in
this life. And, of course, to cuddle with furever.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Interested in adopting a BDRA dog? Simply fill out our application.

All of our adult dogs are spayed or neutered, up to date on vaccinations, microchipped, and on heartworm and flea/tick preventive. All puppies are up to date on vaccinations, microchipped and on heartworm and flea/tick preventive.

We ask a $400 adoption fee. This does not begin to cover the vet work we do on our dogs, which is why we are always fundraising! For unaltered dogs (such as puppies too young to be spayed/neutered prior to adoption), we now require an additional $100 spay/neuter deposit that is refundable upon BDRA receiving proof of spay/neuter and rabies vaccination.

Adoption application

Go meet their pets

Can I meet the dog before I submit an application?
All of our dogs are cared for in private foster homes. We cannot make arrangements for private meet and greets until an application is received and references have been checked. That being said, many of our dogs are at local public events where you can certainly go to meet them.

Will you transport the dog to me? What if I live in Canada?
Generally yes, as long as you do not live more than 18 hours from a dog’s foster home. If you are unsure, please email adoption@blinddogrescue.org.
