Story
APPLY FOR ARLO I’m Arlo, your friendly neighborhood Great Dane, and at a sprightly 1.5 years old, I’m ready to leap into the next big adventure—finding my forever home!   So, here’s a little backstory: my last family had to let me go because I got a wee bit snack-happy with something I shouldn’t have munched on, and they couldn’t swing the vet bill. But fear not! A bunch of superhero humans swooped in to save the day and gave me all the TLC I needed. Now, I’m back to feeling like a million bucks!   They say I’m the quintessential Great Dane—loveably goofy, adorably clumsy, and oh-so-playful! And let’s set the record straight: I may be a towering giant (allegedly), but trust me, I fancy myself a lap dog! Seriously, there’s a comfy spot on your lap just waiting for me!   I adore fellow doggos and the kiddos who are steady on their feet (because I sometimes forget I’m a big ol’ guy and don’t want to accidentally turn playtime into a bowling match!). As for kitties? Well, I’ve yet to meet one, but I’m pretty sure we’d hit it off like peanut butter and jelly when introduced properly!   I’m on the lookout for a fabulous family who knows the ropes of handling big pups like me and who can keep my brain and bouncy body entertained!    ADOPTION FEE: $800 ADOPTION FEE INCLUDES:  Microchip, Vaccines APPLICATION: Click here to apply IF YOU HAVE OWNED A PET IN THE LAST 10 YEARS, PLEASE CALL YOUR VET AHEAD OF TIME TO ALLOW RESCUES TO SPEAK TO THEM APPLY FOR ARLO ##2626530##

Story
*Name: Brodie  *Age: 1.5 years old  *Current Weight: 100lbs  *Rescued from: South Carolina  *Adoption fee: $475  Meet Brodie! Brodie is a true gentle giant with an even bigger heart. This handsome Great Dane mix was found living on the streets of South Carolina last fall as a stray. Instead of finding safety and comfort, he sadly ended up in boarding when no one stepped up to help take him in. After losing his freedom, Brodie found himself stuck in a kennel—anxious and afraid, waiting and hoping for someone to give him the life he deserves. That’s when SNARR stepped in... We knew this special boy deserved more than kennel walls, and we were determined to help our rescue partner find him the loving forever home he’s been waiting for. Brodie is incredibly affectionate and thrives on being close to his people. He’s the kind of dog who just wants to be part of the family—whether that means lounging by your side, accompanying you for rides in the car, following you from room to room, or just soaking up all the love and attention he can get. True to his gentle giant nature, Brodie is wonderful with people and does great with kids. Brodie also gets along well with other dogs and would be happy to have a canine sibling that can show him what it's like to have a good life as a loved canine companion in a family. However, he would do best in a home without cats. Because he loves companionship so much, Brodie would thrive in a home where someone is around most of the day—ideally with someone who works from home or is retired—so he can spend his days enjoying the company he craves. If you’re looking for a loyal, loving companion with a big heart (and an even bigger cuddle presence), Brodie might just be your perfect match. After everything he’s been through, this sweet boy is more than ready to trade kennel life for a cozy home and a family to call his own.
