PETEY - GREAT DANE (SHORT COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Posted Breed: Great Dane (short coat). Petey is the perfect first mate for anyone's shop! He loves people and has never met a dog or human he didn't like. He would be great as a single dog or as a pack. He is pretty laid back and easy going, but loves being with his people. He does better out of his crate and patiently awaits your return when you leave. Your return is greeted with slobbery kisses and the iconic Dane lean. Petey came to us from a shelter where it was determined that he most likely was hit by a car. He has a healed fracture of his pelvis and a dislocated hip. Once in our care we got him into a specialist and he has a FHO surgery. Petey is doing so well healing from his FHO surgery. He takes his therapy in stride, eagerly trying new things and is building his strength and stamina daily. It is fun to see him act like a pup knowing he has had a bum hip for so long. His foster sister is excited to see him heal and loves being his training partner. He loves balls and bouncing around like a goofy puppy. He crazily sleeps on his back , and has so much love to give to his forever family. He rides great in the car and is good on leash. Petey is being fostered in Concord NC.
