Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Fill out an Adoption Application **Courtesy post located in Bel Air, MD** AleXander the Great is a wonderful boy in search of a family to call his own... a family that can show him time, love, and the attention he deserves.   HISTORY: Xander, to no fault of his own, has had to jump around a bit due to his family's financial difficulties.  When times were good he lived with his human mom, two other great danes and a chocolate lab with plenty of room to run around.  His best friend was his 7-year-old human brother.  He also spent some time with a Rover Pet-Sitter but ultimately funds ran out and is currently living in the basement of the home where he isn’t allowed upstairs. He does have the run of the yard where he does his zoomies though.                                  PERSONALITY: Xander is extremely lovable and gentle even if he forgets his size sometimes. He rarely barks except when frightened or when people/dogs pass by when he’s in the yard. Xander is smart but lacks some discipline. He needs training to be a good walker. He pulls at first but quickly settles down. Will try to dart after rabbits and squirrels. Knows to sit for food and gives his paw. Not good at coming when called except in a confined area, like our yard. He is good with children and most people. Doesn’t trust men in hats or beards. Developed a tendency to growl at strange dogs after returning from the Rover Pet Sitting. Xander has a good-natured personality and loves being cuddled, and hugged and returns the same. He has a stubborn streak when he needs to be locked in and will occasionally try to run if he isn’t tempted with a treat.  FAVORITE ACTIVITIES: WALKING and exploring. Car rides. When going for a ride he will be the first one in the vehicle. He is very good in a car. Coordination isn’t his thing and he’s no retriever. He does like to play catch me if you can with a ball, toy, or stick. Snuggling and just chilling with people. His most UN-favorite thing is being alone. He whines and whimpers. Not excessively. Again – rarely barks.  MEDICAL ISSUES: None. He was neutered a month ago and has healed well. He is up to date on all his shots and was tested for heartworm when he was neutered which was negative. All medical records will be provided. WHAT WOULD BE THE BEST KIND OF HOME: A home that can provide him with the attention he deserves. He craves affection and returns the same. He needs to be walked and have room to move around. Ideally, he needs to be included and surrounded by family members. I believe he would do well sharing his home with another dog or possibly cat and children.   Application Fees, Adoption Donations and Rescue Policy: Please know that 100% of our fees and donations pay for the costs of rescuing dogs. These include but are not limited to pull fees from shelters, veterinary examinations, vaccinations, medications and care, microchips, neuter/spay surgeries, heartworm treatments, behavior evaluations, and foster care, as needed.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Fill out an Adoption Application I’m Zeus, chief god of the Greeks. Oh no. That was a different Zeus. I’m Zeus. The 4 year old Great Dane saved from a North Carolina shelter.  But I’m awesome just the same. I am so friendly and sweet that the pilot that brought me to Maryland wanted to adopt me.  He actually asked his wife and she said no.  (He should rehome her.) I am crate trained and potty trained. I am good in the house as long as there isn’t something super tempting around like a bag of treats  or steak sitting on the counter. I take treats extremely gently. I know sit and down. I am a happy boy. I have moderate energy. I love to shake my stuffy toys. I love playing fetch with the ball and I even bring the ball back. I also love a bully stick or filled Kong to chew on.  My foster mom says I’m a good boy and I don’t resource guard. My foster mom always feeds us all separately though because she says it’s best to not create a problem. I am living with 2 Great Danes. I love to play with both the male and the female. My foster mom says my foster brother is a butt because he doesn’t always get along well with other dogs but even do great with him. There is a little ankle biter dog who lives next door that barks at me and I pretty much ignore him. There are chickens here too and my foster mom says she doesn’t believe I have good intentions.  I sleep in my crate at night and go in with a couple of treats. I am quiet as a church mouse all night. I am left in a room during the day if foster mom can’t watch me and I’m not destructive. My foster mom says I am excited to go on a leash and I pull but should get better with practice. I now use a gentle leader and I am perfect with that.   I love car rides (and plane rides if you happen to want to take me on a plane). I literally just lay down in the car and occasionally sit up to look out the window.   I’m happy and confident and love all people big or small. I even met a cat at tractor supply and sniffed but did not fixate and my foster mom thinks I would be fine with a dog savvy cat. I also met a little dog that growled at me when I sniffed his butt and I just waked away. My foster mom believes I would do fine with a little dog. I have also gone to Home Depot and I was an extremely good boy there also. I love meeting new people. I don’t seem bothered by loud noises like the leaf blower or thunder or the vacuum cleaner. I love to be petted all over. I was ok for my bath. I liked the rub down but not the water but my foster mom thinks I just am not used to it. I am very treat motivated and take treats very gently. I am friendly with kids so a dog savvy kid should be great. I would love a playful canine sibling but I would be fine as an only pet as long as I get a little exercise like playing ball once or twice a day.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Fill out an Adoption Application HEADLINER: Rudy is a bouncy, exuberant boy with a loving soul with lots of affection to give! An experienced adopter and a family with teens and up would be a great match for Rudy given his size and goofball play style. Rudy is loyal, eager to please and affectionate -would love to be your only pet so he can have all your attention to himself! HISTORY: Rudy grew up with a young family and was surrendered due to small children/new babies arriving and the family not having time for this sensitive companion. His current home was intended to be a “foster fail” one while continuing to fosters dogs but despite best efforts to socialize with other dogs, Rudy does not like sharing his mom with new foster dogs. PERSONALITY: Rudy is a handsome, affectionate Great Dane who is energetic & playful yet wants to be your lap dog at the same time -- a true velcro dog! When excited, this 155# puppy bounces around with joy. Rudy will need time to warm up to unfamiliar faces, but once he does he is eager to call you a new friend. Relative to the family’s four legged family members, Rudy bonded with foster brother schnoodle from the beginning. Due to his reticence sharing his humans’ attention, will thrive in a home where he’s the only pet. Rudy is motivated to be with his family, responds to affection and treats. His bouncy personality is sure to endear himself into your heart. FAVORITE ACTIVITIES: Loves to go for daily walks, chasing his ball on a rope, running zoomies in his fenced backyard and adores snuggling on the sofa with his head on your lap. He wants to play with his foster brother but a 15yo 10# schnoodle is no playmate, so Rudy will play catch with himself using his stuffed toys. Rudy loves his stuffed ‘woobies,’ snuggling against his ‘person’ and has a slow motion lean-in nose touches down to an art form. MEDICAL ISSUES: Rudy (4yo) was neutered and had gastropexy (stomach tacked) when he arrived at his current home. This dignified Great Dane has a sensitive stomach (managed well with probiotics) and sensitive skin (dandruff is managed well with daily fish oil and monthly baths). WHAT WOULD BE THE BEST KIND OF HOME: Rudy loves to turn heads on his daily walk so if you’re looking for someone to take walks with, Rudy’s your boy. If walks aren’t possible, a home with a fenced backyard to stretch his long legs would be a dream come true for this playful giant. Rudy is truly a velcro giant and enjoys calm, cozy nights at home snuggling- as close to your lap as possible :). ADDITIONAL COMMENTS: Handsome Rudy has leash manners, enjoys his crate for meals (and naps), has excellent recall and knows commands sit (working on stay), no, off and lay down. He likes to learn new tricks when he’s rewarded with a tasty treat. He’d love to work on his socialization to become the best pet he can be! Rudy is a loyal & lovable gentle giant- if you think you have the perfect family home for Rudy, please contact us -- we’d love to find out more about you!!

Goofy attended school one day and did great with lots of meet and greets, he is just such a good boy.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Fill out an Adoption Application HEADLINER: Moose needs a Valentine to help him celebrate his birthday. HISTORY: Moose was born on Valentine’s Day in 2023. Moose came to MTM from a home in Kentucky. PERSONALITY: Moose is loving, playful and loyal. Moose may look full grown but he is very playful. Moose loves crinkle toys and tug of war ropes. Moose does get the zoomies usually at night before bedtime. He loves to play but just as much as he loves to play Moose loves to rest, snuggle and be pet. His favorite spots to be pet are on his head and behind his ears. Moose is also very loyal. He will let it be known when something is amiss. FAVORITE ACTIVITIES: Playing with crinkle toys, tug of war ropes, being pet and snuggling, going for walks. MEDICAL ISSUES: Moose came to MTM rather thin and needing to put on some weight (117.4 at intake) he has been gaining weight. Moose also has some calluses which he has oil being put on them to soften up the spots. WHAT WOULD BE THE BEST KIND OF HOME: The best home for Moose would be one where the adopter understands the needs of a Great Dane or large breed dog. One who is patient and willing to help train Moose to be the best dog he can be. Moose is leash trained (must be walked using a harness as he will very easily slip his collar), housebroken and crate trained but is still working on manners. He does jump when he gets excited and when he gets bored will chew on whatever he can find. Moose has been doing well with redirection when receiving correction. Moose loves to be near his person or people and will follow around. Moose prefers to be wherever the people are. He is an absolute love and would love a home where he can have lots of attention.

Story
Hi, my name is Pearl! I’m 13 weeks old and weigh about 20 lbs.  I was abandoned and found in an alley in Bexley.  I’ve learned to be scrappy, no one’s going to take advantage of me! I’ll tell you what I like and don’t like, so if meek and mild is what you’re looking for, I may not be the girl for you. I am strong willed, but eager to learn. I am not a big snuggler and would much rather spend my time playing! I need a yard and a dog friend to play with or you better be ready to play, play, play!!! I’m currently in my velociraptor stage, so put on some gloves and let’s throw down! I sleep 8 hours in my crate and will go in my crate when you leave. I’m working on potty training!  I’m very food motivated and I'm learning things quickly.  As rough as I like to play, I take my treats very gently!! Though I’d love to share my life, I do not like to share my food. I like to eat separately. Food is my prized possession! I’m vocal about telling you what I like and don’t like, so apartment living is not for me. If you have older kids and teens who’d play, that would be ideal.  I think toddlers are cool to jump on and be mouthy with, so giving me one of my own might be problematic. If you’re looking for a fun loving girl, who knows what she wants, then I am the girl for you! Let’s meet!! My adoption fee is $400 and includes my spay, boosters and flea/tick/heartworm preventatives up to the point of adoption. ##2197938##
