Denver & Cheyenne

b-day?

2008

Color

fawn

Update: 2/25/11: Hi! Hi! No, it's not an echo, it's us! The dynamic duo, Denver & Cheyenne. We are beautiful fawn siblings who go everywhere together. We'd love to come meet you and maybe, if you're really lucky, we'll stay!

From Cheyenne: I'm a tiny bit short and weigh a svelte 108 but I sure act like I'm as big as my bro. My foster mom says I have a Napoleon complex but she's just a silly, so don't pay attention to her! When I first came into rescue, I was really sick with pneumonia. I loved being babied and loved. I still do! I have lots of fun with my stuffies--they are so much fun! I toss them around and stalk them and bark at them. I'm pretty shy when I first meet you but I'm sure you'll be patient, because I am so worth the wait! Men tend to scare me more than women and sometimes sudden moves are too much but I'm slowly learning that the world isn't super scary. I am very smart: I know Touch! and Back and Off. AND I answer when you call me! Mom says I'm the sweetest girl she knows--and I agree!

From Denver: Hey there, how ya doing? What are you doing? Is it something that's fun? Something maybe I could eat? That would be great! Ha, great. Get it? great...great dane, that's me. see? Pretty much everyone really likes me--they just think I'm great. ha ha. did it again! OK, no, really, like, I just like to hang out and be cool. I'm friendly and happy, and mom says I'm sweet as pie and...oh yeah, she did mention that I'm kinda stubborn and set in my ways too. But I don't know what she could be talking about. Me? naw. Wait, it is 10 am yet? because at 10 am every day, I like to eat my snacks. Not at 9, or 11, but right at 10 am. Snacks should really only be eaten then, don't you think? You don't? Well, you're wrong. And I'll bark to prove it! OK, let's see. What else? Oh Yeah, I l ove to lay out in the sun and I love being outdoors as much as possible. And, well, I'm starting to like these car rides mom takes me on. They're interesting and have possibilities. Other than that, I just like to hang out with my family. Mom will tell you--I'm a really good boy!

For updates on how these two are doing, and lots of photos, please visit their own web page put together by their foster mom: http://www.padanerescue.com/adopt/Denver_Cheyenne.htm.

Max #2

b-day?

2006

Color

harlequin

Update: 4/5/11:Max is a gorgeous harle boy who is coming back to rescue because his owners are just not ableto handle both Max and his dane brother Nigel. Since Nigel has some other issues, Max is coming back to us. Max has beautiful blue eyes and a loving way about him. He is good with other dogs but does react on leash to them so will need a bit of work in that area. He is very loving with his family and with visitors when properly introduced.

Max could stand to lose about 20 lbs--but couldn't we all! He is very attached to his people,and loves to play with his stuffies. Max is noise sensitive, so would do best in a quieter neighborhood where there wasn't a lot of action. he has free run of the house while the owners are gone and is house trained.

Boo (adoption pending)

b-day?

2010

Color

white

Original: 4/23/11: Boo is an 11 month old white dane with natural ears. Boo is deaf and has limited eyesight in only one of his eyes. He is very playful and loves other dogs, but cats are unknown right now. Boo lives with 2 danes and 3 smaller dogs. He is very cautious of people because of his sight and hearing problems and will often run away from you until he is sure you are OK. Once he is sure you're safe, he will come over for lots of petting and love. He is currently learning to come with hand signals and also learning to walk on a leash. This boy really needs a loving home with another dog for company and as someone to follow. He also needs to be in a home that doesn't require him to do stairs.

Diesel

b-day?

12/21/2005

Color

Black

Original: 4/23/11: Diesel (aka Deedle) is a stunning dog, and greets you with a smile. Everyone "Deedle Deedle" meets, he loves, and leans on. Currently he is living with three Great Danes, two cats, and a bird. Diesel needs and adores his people! He is great with all dogs, cats, horses, and especially children. He loves his older, bossy, and sometimes grumpy foster Dane sister. He doesn't challenge her when she grumbles at him to keep his distance. He understands, as he will give a warning grumble to his foster puppies to kindly not climb on him. Diesel had a schnauzer in his first home for his buddy, and loves little doggies, but yet sadly spent alot of time alone. His family worked a lot and had 3 small children.

Diesel is a very well behaved boy. He walks well on or off leash, never has any accidents, and isn't destructive. Diesel is a kind, loving, gentle soul who is perfectly content laying on the couch with you, on the floor at your feet, in your bed cuddling, in the car taking a ride to go to the nearest dog park, or trail hike. Diesel loves to spend time with people, and loves to be loved. He loves to be rubbed, and held, and kissed. He lets out a song when he is happy, as he sings and whistles through his nose. Diesel is on a grain free diet, as he has a grain allergy. Please give this guy a second chance in life. He is such an obedient, intelligent, handsome and wonderful dog, and deserves a life where he can be cherished and loved. Diesel will hug and love you back without asking for much more than attention, and a soft bed to sleep on of his own, or yours if you would like to share.

Jax **NEEDS A FOSTER HOME--IN KENNEL *****

b-day?

2006

Color

merle

 

Original 4/23/11: Jax is a big handsome merle boy who doesn't realize his size. He loves to hang on the couch with his foster family, and enjoys observing life from a place of comfort. Jax is also a smart boy and is a whiz at basic obedience - he knows Sit, Down, Recall, Stand for Exam, Shake/Paw, and High Five. In his original home, Jax lived with several other danes, both male and female; however, he does not do well with smaller dogs. He loves loves loves to play fetch (so unDane-like!) and will bring the ball to the kids in his foster home so that they can throw it for him. Jax also greets people very nicely at the door, all tail wags and leans for visitors.

Jax is quickly learning to walk well on leash, and escorts the kids to the bus stop every morning. He doesn't like to share "his" stuff so will need to be fed in a separate room and toys shouldn't be left around. In his original home, he did well when left alone for several hours as long as he has a dane companion with him. He is house trained and will hunt you down if he needs to go out and can't find you. He will nudge at you and give you a big ole paw if he wants some loving and attention. Jax will take few weeks to really transition to a new environment but once he settles in, he's a laid back companion who is ready to be your best buddy.
