Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Sven the Great Dane is becoming the dog he was meant to be. He’s still a youngster, we think around 12 months. He’s a very happy, healthy boy. Sven enjoys his long walks. He has so much fun chasing a ball and the secret is to have multiple balls in hand - that’s because Sven knows how to bring the ball back, drop it and wait for the next ball to be thrown. He may also be overly interested in small furry creatures. We think Sven is just a great all round boy. He has so many wonderful qualities, the best of which is he’s a leaner and a snuggler.   November 16, 2024, 5:27 pm
