Story

Pupdate from Foster: Bridgette is 77 lbs of pure puppy love. She loves to play, loves to run in the yard, and loves to cuddle. She's not a fan of felines, but she gets along with other dogs and plays well. She can be a bit of a couch potato and would gladly sleep next to you if allowed. She likes to tell you when she wants to go somewhere by trying to open the door, so make sure it's locked if you don't want her to leave. Bridgette is house trained, but needs to be taught how to ask to go outside. She likes having a regular daily schedule. She doesn't love going in her crate, but is good at staying in it once she's there. She can sleep in her crate and also will sleep well in her doggy bed next to your bed. Puppy obedience lessons would be beneficial to help her learn to come when called and how to leave things she shouldn't have (she has a shoe-stealing habit). Bridgette is ready and waiting to meet you! I am Bridgette. I am from Arkansas. From her foster: She's not a fan of felines, although she loves dogs and plays well. She can be very lazy sometimes haha and Loves a good cuddle. She loves to tell you when she wants to go somewhere by trying to open the door, so make sure it's locked if you don't want her to leave. . She does really good for crate bed-time.

Story

Come and meet me at our adoption event at BUCH Fermentary, Minneapolis on 5/18 from 1 - 3pm! Age: Estimated DOB 1/30/2021 Dog friendly: Yes Cat friendly: Unknown/not tested Kid friendly: Yes Potty trained: Yes Crate trained: Yes Hi, my name is Memphis, I am a sweet Minnesotan girl. My original mommy had some medical issues and could no longer care for my sister (Kimberly) and I. So we were placed in rescue to find our forever family. There isn’t a human or dog that I haven’t loved. I get a little excited at first, which can be a hazard with my size, but calm down quickly. I love playing in the backyard with my dog friends and then love to snuggle up to take a good nap. There isn’t a toy or treat that I don’t like. Did I tell you that I LOVE treats? I am fully potty trained and amazing at using my kennel when my fosters leave the house; besides, that is when I get treats!! I will sleep on a pillow on the floor next to your bed but prefer snuggling up next to you. My foster mom says that I am a bed hog and will fight her for her pillow, even though there is a second pillow to use. My foster mom jokes that a king-sized bed should be a requirement for adoption. I am a big snuggle bug, more of you to love, looking for my forever family, is that you? Adoption Fee: $625

Story

Status: AVAILABLE11/6/2022 Introducing Bertha (BB!)Bio: - 4 years old - Spayed female - Mantle coat - Located in Ripon, WIBasic Info: - Significant vision impairment, completely blind in left eye and can only see shadows or dark spots in her right eye - Super snuggler- loves cuddles and lots of attention from people - Walks nicely with a harness, doesn't pull - Crate trained; is crated overnight for sleeping, Bertha has been left alone for about 4 hours while her foster mom was at work and did great! She has never had an accident in the house or the crate. - No known cat experience - Unknown if she has ever lived with kids (none in foster and she came from a humane society prior to our rescue) Likes: - Walks, these are her absolute favorite! - Enjoys chew toys and stuffed animals - Always down for a napDislikes/Quirks: - Not a fan of sharing her space or food with other dogs. This could be due to her sight loss and confusion of other dogs in her space. She will do best in a home where she is the only dog. - Does not like loud noises and being sneaked up on and/ startled; again related to her sight loss - Would rather not get a bath if she doesn't have to Medical Notes: - Other than being almost completely blind, she has no medical concerns. She has a few lipomas (fatty tissue spots) on her legs/side, but these have been evaluated by a vet and they are not a health concern and do not bother her physicallyHard Requirements For Forever Home: - Due to extreme vision impairment, she will require a fenced in yard for her safety - An adoptive home where she can be the only dog - While Bertha has not been aggressive to anyone, her lack of being able to see and assess her surroundings visually leave her easily startled and possibly on the defensive. For that reason a calm home environment is needed for this sweet girl. If there are children in an adoptive home we ask that they be at least 12 years old and able to understand this need and provide her the calm, predictable environment she needs.If you think you may be the adoptive home that this super sweet 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 Deborah at deborah@thegreatdanerescue.com to learn more about Bertha. - 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.

Story

Status: AVAILABLE8/3/2022 Introducing Maxwell!Bio: * 9 month old active puppy * White Neutered Male * Located in Presque Isle, WI Basic Info: * Maxwell has significant vision impairment--it is estimated that he can only see about 5% out of one eye, however foster mom questions this estimate as he does see "something" and gets along really well once he understands the layout of the environment. He might see blobs/lightness/darkness of objects/etc. He can see motion & will react according to what the motion is doing. He may see certain areas of light/dark etc that help him to move around. * While not completely deaf, he has a significant hearing impairment. Maxwell appears to hear only certain high pitch noises out of one ear (things like loud voices/dogs barking/vehicles revving up) * Really loves on his people and looks to them for guidance and reassurance due to his hearing and vision losses * Excellent car rider * No known experience with catsLikes: * Playing with toys; balls/rope balls/ deer antlers etc. * Walks; he is a very curious pup who loves to explore everything he can get his nose and paws on * Loves doing zoomies in the backyard Dislikes: * Being left alone. If he feels that he is all alone he will bark constantly. Someone who is home more often than not would best suit his current needs. At this time a standard 8-hour work day is too long for him to be left alone * People in his face and not respecting his boundaries * Objects/people/other dogs that move quickly. With his limited sight and hearing these fast movements can make him a bit nervous and unsure of his surroundings Hard Requirements For Forever Home: * Due to his hearing and vision impairments, he requires a physically fenced in yard * Requires a home with another submissive, active canine who can help him burn off puppy energy and who can mentor him in these crucial months of training and "growing" up! * If there are children, his foster mom asks they be at least 12 years or older, with calm demeanors * A calm and consistent home life is vital to his success! A busy and chaotic environment would be too stressful for himSpecial Note From Foster Mom: * This fella is a pretty special puppy! He has been bounced around a lot unfortunately and really needs an adopter who will go above and beyond as he is most deserving. Someone with deaf/vision impairment experience would be a blessing for him. Maxwell is a one in a million Dane. I just know there is a special home out there for him that will supersede all our expectations.Interested in Maxwell? This is what you need do: * If you have already completed the application process and are an approved adopter with UMGDR, please contact Hannah at hannah@thegreatdanerescue.com to discuss your interest in Maxwell. * If you are not an approved adopter through UMGDR, you must complete our application process before you can be considered to adopt a dog through our rescue.

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.

Story

Hi! My name is Butch and I am from Missouri. I am looking for a new foster family! Please CLICK HERE to sign up to foster! From the foster: Meet Butch! We have had him for six weeks and he was very shut down when he came to us, but has blossomed into such a sweet and affectionate boy. He is fearful of new people, and warms up to females, but he takes much longer to warm up to men and will need additional training to build trust with men. Butch is an anxious boy who is regularly taking anxiety medication and needs patience and additional training to build his confidence and help him settle in. He is a big hunk of love, weighing in at 88 lbs. He is dog-friendly, we have one resident dog and others have come to play. He is crate and house trained, calm, sweet and attaches quickly to his person. He would prefer to be near you at all times. He's a big fan of stuffed toys, bones and he LOVES cheese. He's pretty respectful of boundaries and gates and has very nice house manners. Butch is not bold but he is loyal. He wants to be loved and a part of the family and after you build initial trust he'll do his best to be brave for you. He is a flight risk, having a fenced in yard will help immensely. If not, be sure to be intentional about double leashing and having a secure hold. He will have training support post adoption from the rescue to help him gain confidence and aid in relationship building with his new family. Butch will make a wonderful addition to your life - he is a big goofy sweetheart looking for a secure and stable home where he can shine.

River is looking for a foster or her forever family! Please CLICK HERE to sign up to foster! Select the "Apply for Adoption" if you would like to adopt Hi! My name is River and I am from Missouri. River is a sweet, but very shy pup. She loves cheddar cheese for treats, and might even be persuaded to take it from your hand. She loves to chew on her Benebone, and maybe any bed or blanket you place in her kennel. She startles at loud noises, so a calm, quieter house would be best for her. She has attempted to peak out to the living room, but startles with my loud resident dogs. She will use a pee pad and will potty outside when she can be persuaded to go outside. She is doing well with being let out around every 3-4 hours. She would need a fenced in yard due to being a flight risk. She is cat friendly and gets along with dogs with a slow introduction. She really is the sweetest girl.

Story

I am looking for a foster or forever family! Please CLICK HERE to sign up to foster! Select the "Apply for Adoption" if you would like to adopt. Remington is a very sweet boy. He definitely needs some extra TLC and someone who can help him come out of his shell and start to explore the world. He does not do well with other dogs and unsure about cats or kids- but I would say he would do best in a home where he is the only animal and no small children. He is great with men and women and a huge teddy bear. He is very nervous on a leash and of new places; but, with the right home and time, he will be such a wonderful addition to the family.
