Story
*********AVAILABLE NOW-I am in Lake County Il awaiting my forever family******* I am a precious 3 month old pure bred Great Dane baby boy who is looking for my happily ever after. Investing your time and love into me will be so worth it!! I am an absolute sweetheart. I am a breeder release due to the failing economy. I am a sweet, loving and smart lil boy who just wants a loving family. I am happy, playful and an absolute joy to be around. I love playing and I am right at the perfect age for lots of training. I am good with children and other animals. Please understand that I am going to be a very big boy when I grow up. I am pretty much a huge baby right now. Please add a lotta unconditional love, sloppy kisses, tail wags and endless happiness to your family and contact adoptions@wagginghearts.org for an adoption application and bring me home. I will come with the works (Neutered, up to date on everything, micro chipped, fecal, heart worm tested, monthly heartworm, flea and tick prevented, a free vet visit and medical insurance). What more could a new family ask for? Love and Kisses, Phedora

Story
Diesel - Male Great Dane Age: 4 Years Gets along with: Cats: Needs slow introduction Dogs: Yes Kids: Needs slow introduction given size Location: Northeast Indiana Weight: 145 lbs Diesel came into rescue very shutdown, but quickly came out of his shell to a happy Dane, and all that that entails (bouncy boy with a deadly tail). He has fit right in with the three other dogs and cats in his foster home. He is learning what toys are, but doesn’t play much yet. He will follow you around (even when vacuuming) and will help you in the kitchen. He spends the night in his crate, but would prefer sleeping in the bedroom (we will leave that up to his new home). He loves snuggling on the couch, and naps there regularly. He walks on a leash, but needs a little more work. Like most big dogs he like his head and ears scratched, but will turn around so you can scratch his butt. Diesel would fit in almost any family. He is good with other dogs, but would be happy to be the center of attention as an only dog. He would like occasional walks, but is great at taking naps. His recall is still slow, so a fenced yard would be needed. Diesel is ready to go to his permanent home. He has come out of his initial shell and is now demanding ear and butt scratches. He has gotten along with every dog, cat and person he has met. He does need a slow introduction, just because of his size. He is learning toys (mostly squeeky ones), and may even bring it back a couple times, but then he wears out. Loves sitting and sleeping on a couch, and given a chance, would love to snuggle at night. Diesel could fit into any home. It would help if the home had some understanding of giant breeds (having your elbow pushed when cooking, pushing a screen out when curious). He is a fast eater, so will come with a slow feed bowl (it helps a little). Leash Trained - walks loose leash Crate Trained - goes to crate/kennel on command Potty Trained - indicates need to potty and doesn't have indoor accidents Car - Rides well in the car Sits for good bowl Until the profile is removed from the public’s view, the dog is considered available for adoption.  Meet and greets can be scheduled with approved adopters. Transportation from the foster home to the adopter is the responsibility of the adopter to coordinate. Just Giants does not adopt outside of the continental US.

Story
Hi, I am Zuzu and am new to the rescue. I am currently decompressing and getting used to my foster family. I am a big, playful boy who is sweet as can be but don't know my own size. Because of this I'd be best in a family with older kids. I get along with the other dogs in my foster home and would love to play and wrestle with them all day long if I could!  ##2226207##

Story
Meet Trixie, a beautiful, fun Great Dane who is about 4 years old and weighs about 100 lbs. Trixie is so very sweet and always wants to cuddle. Does she know that she is 100 lbs and not a lap dog? She certainly does not! She loves to be the center of your world. She is super smart and treat motivated her, so training her has been and will be a joy. She is protective of her home but not at all aggressive, and she has become BFFs with the resident dog. Since she doesn't really understand her size, we would like to place her in a home with kids 12 or older only.  We also would like her in a home with a securely fenced in yard.  If you are interested in adopting/meeting this pup , please complete our online adoption application that you can find here: https://www.starfishanimalrescue.com/adopt/dog-adoption-application  . Your application will be reviewed by our team and if it is a good fit, we will send to the foster family to set up a meet! The adoption fee of $450 will include spay/neuter, microchip, age appropriate/required vaccinations, treatment for heartworm and any other necessary medical treatment to assure a healthy new pup for your family. IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER: Although we do our best to describe breed, since our pups all come from shelters we can not and will not make any guarantee on breed or size. We can tell you that they are 100% RESCUED! And that is the BEST breed! *please note that we are a foster home based rescue and we do home visits as part of the adoption process - we are unable to adopt to families who live outside of the Chicago and surrounding suburbs. Thank you for your understanding.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.November 17, 2024, 9:46 am

Story
**** Northern Illinois/ Chicagoland suburb adoptions only **** Applications must be submitted on newstartdogrescue.org to be considered for adoption. FULLY FENCED YARD REQUIRED***** Meet Ivy! She is a beautiful Blue Great Dane puppy. Ivy currently weighs 48 lbs and was born on March 24, 2024. She and a couple of her siblings came to us at the beginning of October. They had not been properly cared for and due to the lack of nutrition and proper exercise, their body condition was very poor. Thankfully after being placed in wonderful foster homes, they have thrived and gained weight. Their skin condition has improved immensely, and they are working on their social skills too. Due to their poor start in life, they are smaller than the average Dane their age, but our vet feels they will catch up in time. Ivy LOVES other dogs and is a huge snuggle bug. She has Dane foster brother and adults in her foster home and has grown so much in learning to trust people. She had very little socialization before coming to us so it’s been a work in progress. She is crate trained and housebroken as long as you are paying attention to her cues. We are requiring an above ground, fully fenced in yard for her as well as atleast one other dog in the home. Her new family will need to continue to work with her on socializing with people as she is still fearful of meeting new people. She quickly warms up with patience and slow intros. Ivy will do best in a home where someone is home a lot as she is a little Velcro girl. Please do your research on having an XL breed in the home if you have never had a Great Dane before. Local adoptions only. We do not adopt out of the state of Illinois. Ivy is being fostered in a private home. Appointments to meet her will be set up for approved adopters only. Her adoption fee is $500 which includes all age appropriate vaccines. She is spayed, microchipped and Heartworm negative. She has also been kept on both flea/tick and heartworm preventatives. Please visit our website and fill out an application if you are interested. http://newstartdogrescue.org
