I would never leave our Dane outside unattended, he has a runner and loves it. She might be a good fit for our family of a male Dane and three cats.

Let me know the details and maybe this beautiful girl could be part of our family.

Thanks

Could be - you are welcome to bring your dog over to meet her . I'll send you a PM.

The last young lady that bought tags said "I just want to breed them a few times. They will make such cute puppies and I already know people that will want to buy them" :clueless:`

Did you smack the #### out of her?

Thousands of dogs die each day in shelters, all because some backyard ####head breeder wants "cute" puppies, or to make a quick buck.

I am sure that there would be a lot of opposition, but I think TV ads showing what happens to the overpopulation of pets should be shown during prime time TV. It can't be any worse for us to watch pets being put down compared to the kind of daily violence they put on TV every day. I think each week the NEW faces that had to die should be shown.

I was told the vet said she had been heavily used for breeding in her short life. Vet also said her feet are splayed which comes from being caged a lot. She is very high energy and would enjoy a large fenced yard and/or someone to walk her every day.

Please help is find this lovable sweet dog a.home. whoever used her for breeding cared so little for her that they dumped her in the road and took off.

Her glo is blue, where most of them have a green glow. So that makes her EXTRA special.

This sweet happy (now spayed) dog has to go from the foster's home since she has not yet been placed. The foster is unable to keep her any longer.

Attributes are that this dog likes to act like a guard dog and will let you know if she hears cars in the driveway, or other sounds that you may need to be notified of. Now I understand that most rescue's operate to NOT promote dogs as "guard" dogs, however, this is just apparently part of this dogs personality? So many who have seen her have commented on how great of a "guard" dog she is to alert to strangers.

As stated before she was used as a breeder, kept caged a lot as evidenced by her splayed feet (per the vet), and she has a LOT of energy. She eats as though she has been starved. She literally attacks the food and doesn't even chew it. Just swallows the food, yes even after the past 5 months with the foster getting regular meals. She is getting better about taking treats more gently. She wants to listen to sit/down/stay but sometimes she is so excited to see you she just wiggles.

This dog was used and abused by whoever was breeding her. The foster has done all they can to help her but can no longer keep her. They said if we can't find a placement for her they will take her to she shelter. I can't take her as I have no place to keep her. She does need a decent height fence as she can jump the 4' fence at the foster's home.

She is housebroken, has been crated with no problems, and she is really so friendly and starved for love. We would hate to see this dog end up at the shelter. We are hoping that someone here can take her in while we continue to look for a home for her. It would be such a waste to have this wonderful dog end up being put down at the shelter after so much time and effort has gone into helping her these past 5 months.

Does this pup have any interactions with cats??

(I briefly skimmed the prev posts and didn't see anything.- might have missed it though)
