My personality

My story

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

Say hello to my little friend… Annika. A 4 year old fun loving sweet girl with the energy of a younger pup. Before she came into Rescue, she was dumped in a rural area just outside of DFW. Annika loves long walks on the beach (if you have one, but just in the neighborhood works well for her too), though that activity has had be be curtailed just a bit as she was heartworm positive, and has undergone treatment at one of our veterinarians. She loves loves loves her crate, and when told to “crate up”, it is, “Oh Boy, Oh Boy I can get in the crate!!!”. In fact when she first came to the foster home, she spent more than 90% of her time in the crate, door open, just her choice of places. She still chooses to spend time in the crate, but she is living life with the foster family more and more.
Annika is VERY food motivated! And more than willing to eat her share, your share, their share… And if you have anything in your hand, in her mind, it must be a treat for her.
Her manners are still those of a 1year old, not the 4 year old she is, and her foster family is working with her. With the right family, she will learn to be an even better behaved girl.

Annika is available for adoption in the Dallas/FortWorth Metroplex. Visit danerescue.net to find out more info about our adoption process and complete the adoption application.

Additional adoption info

Our dogs are in foster homes so we know a lot about them.. so we will work hard with approved adopters to find s dog that will be a good family member. For example if an adopter has small children we would match them with dogs who are known to be good with small kids.

More about this rescue

Great Dane Rescue of North Texas, Inc. is an all volunteer, 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to providing medical attention and foster care while seeking permanent homes for abandoned Great Danes in the North Texas area.

GDRNT works with animal shelters to save the lives of Great Danes on death row. Many dogs that come into our program are sick, injured or have suffered abuse but there are just as many happy, healthy, well-adjusted Great Danes that find themselves facing the euthanasia needle because of hardships faced by their families.

GDRNT finds loving and knowledgeable permanent homes; educates the public about the temperament, characteristics and special needs of the Great Dane breed; teaches responsible pet ownership; and promotes animal identification programs, spay/neuter programs and general animal population control.

We do not have a shelter – all the Great Danes in our care are placed in trained foster homes after the dog is spay/neutered, heartworm tested, given Rabies, DHLPPC and Bordetella vaccinations, fecal tested, micochipped and treated for any other necessary veterinary needs.

While a Great Dane is in GDRNT’s care, it lives as part of a foster family. During this time, each Dane’s health and temperament is evaluated which helps us make appropriate permanent placements in approved adoptive homes. In addition to providing medical and emotional rehabilitation, all foster homes crate train, work on basic obedience and housebreaking.
