King Kong - Great Dane / Labrador Retriever / Mixed Dog For Adoption

View more

a Dane/lab mix. I’m black with some white thrown in on one of my toes and a little under me. I may not be as big as a Great Dane, but I am a strong fella and my personality is bigger than life! My general personality is ALL PUPPY thrown in with some play! During my freedom ride, I got to hang out with some kids, and I did great. I love people! I love when I get pets and scratches. Standing beside my momma’s chair and receiving scruffles and kisses just makes my day. Sometimes I like to just lay my head on her arm and she rubs on me. And sometimes she lets me crawl up onto her lap, and I love that. She says I am a “sweet, sweet boy with a huge personality”. I make her laugh. In a short time, I’ve learned about the good life and I’m loving it! I have a lot of energy, I like to explore everything, and I am learning my boundaries. I like to steal things and think it’s fun to be chased. I still like to chew so she has put away all the stuff I’m not allowed to have. I love love my toys (especially the ostrich bone)! In the beginning, I was protective of them. My foster mom thinks it was because I was insecure and experiencing so many new things at once. Now I like to play with my momma and even make up my own games. My foster mom laughs when I stand behind her chair and drop my ball down her back so she will throw it. I will get into the car for a treat, but I don’t look out the window or anything like that. I am also scared to walk near the street. The traffic bothers me. I need more work on the leash thing. I get all wiggly and the leash has a funny way of ending up in my mouth. I know jumping on people is a bad idea and I check myself when I start to do it, but now and again I get real excited and may jump a little. I like nibbling on my foster momma’s hands, chin, and ears. It’s my way of showing that I love her. My ideal home would be an only dog as only I can love my people best. I haven’t met a cat, but I did have an encounter with a possum that left a frowny face on my foster mom. So maybe no cats. I will go in my crate. Sometimes I will go in on my own but having treats to help are better! My foster mom comes home from work every day at lunch to let me outside to go potty. I am potty trained and go to the door when I want to go out, but I still haven’t learned to tell her I’m at the door. My ideal home would be an active family because I like to have fun. I probably wouldn’t do as well with babies because I am still excitable; maybe like 5 years old and up. I am still working on basic commands. I can Sit and I know Lay Down and Drop It, but it takes me a minute to get there. I know what NO is and I come when called most of the time. I like when mom whistles. I come running as fast as I can. Nail trimmings are not my favorite activity. I wasn’t used to having a loving family, but I’m liking it and don’t ever want to have my old life again. I would love to find my forever home and be part of a family. If you would like to meet me, please contact the nice people at Save Rocky.
