Story

Status: AvailableUpdate 8/10/22 This spectacular senior lady is at her healthiest since coming into rescue over a year ago. This 9 1/2 year old super star is at her optimum weight and body condition. She is a master at retrieving any ball and dropping it at your feet to throw again and again....nothing slows this perennial pup down! She doesn't act her age and simply has loved every single day like its a brand new adventure unfolding ~ which is pretty amazing considering her background?? Promise makes a great gardening sidekick too! 1/4/2022 update on Petite Miss PromisePromise continues to be quite healthy and has had no further incontinent episodes. While super sweet with people, she has had a couple concerning encounters with other dogs in the foster setting so we feel it best that she be the only dog in her adoptive home. While not currently living with cats, Promise was "cat tested" while in foster care and did well!9/12/2021 Introducing PromisePromise is a very sweet senior (almost 9 year old), healthy and petite 101 pound Merle female Great Dane. Although the years were less then ideal before coming into rescue, her spirit wasn't broken and she has thrived in just a few short months in foster care. She is on no daily medications and her blood work is within a normal, healthy range. Promise was recently spayed and had both a successful procedure and recovery. She's a favorite at the vet office as well with all the people she has met thus far!Promise has a mix of kennel time and free roam during the day. She is hit or miss on being able to hold it for a full normal workday so she needs an adoptive home that can offer her her potty breaks within a 5 - 6 hr time frame. She will easily hold it thru the night with her human around to catch her signal to go out if she needs to. Every day is a completely new day in Promise's mind and she LOVES life. She loves the feeling of grass under her feet & the wind in her face when she zooms! Promise enjoys her nightly walks along with all the quality one on one time as she takes in all the sights and sounds! She loves rope toys, balls, and her favorite Frisbee which she will proudly carry around in her mouth but wrapped around on the top of her head! She has found that butterflies and dragonflies are so fun to chase and finds enjoyment in all the simple joys of being young at heart!While Promise has been exposed to dogs her whole life, she prefers the people in her foster home more than the other dogs. home. She is seeking a quiet home with a submissive female friend or she would be very content being the only dog. From the information we have received, we do not believe that Promise has lived with children or cats. Knowing that she would do best in a quiet home, we do not recommend an adoptive home with children younger than 8-10 years old. This sweet girl has rolled with the cards dealt to her all her life thus far. UMGDR has made a promise to her that her deck will be loaded in her favor for the rest of her life. This sweet gem will shower you with slobbery kisses & her forever family will be amazed at all of her "puppy" antics she displays every single day! If you think you are the quiet and loving home this special senior girl is waiting for, this is what you need to do:~ If you have already completed the application process and are an approved adopter with UMGDR, please contact Callie at callie@thegreatdanerescue.com to learn more about Promise.- If you are not yet an approved adopter through UMGDR, you must complete our application process before you could be considered to adopt a dog through our rescue.
