ABBY - GREAT DANE / MIXED DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Great Dane / Mixed. LOCATION: Coralville, IA DOB: 05/04/2024 Meet Abby – a sweet, snow-white Great Dane mix with striking black ears and a heart full of love. She’s still learning what it means to feel safe and settled, but this girl is making incredible progress every day. Abby is all about the indoor life—soft couches, loving humans, and a routine she can count on. Abby’s personality is a blend of gentle and goofy. She plays hard with her dog buddies, then happily crashes for a long nap beside you on the couch. She’s not the kind of dog who’s “on” all the time—she knows how to mellow out and loves being part of the family without demanding constant attention. She’s doing great with potty training (only one accident so far) and learning to be okay in a crate, though it’s not her favorite spot just yet. She’ll likely do fine without one once she’s fully house-trained and adjusted. Abby walks beautifully on leash—one of the best leash walkers her foster has ever had—and rides nicely in the car, too. What’s especially endearing is how fast Abby is learning to trust. Every day she opens up just a little more, adapting to her new life and showing her foster family that she’s got so much love to give. She’s very attached to her people and even seeks out the older kids in the house for attention. Abby does well with dogs of all sizes and personalities, though she might be a bit much for seniors. She’s great with cats, even chill around horses and chickens. A confident adult dog in the home would likely help her continue to blossom. New situations can be overwhelming for Abby, and she needs someone who will advocate for her—not push her into interactions she’s not ready for. She’s not a dog who wants to be the life of the party, but in her own home, with her people and her routine, she’s amazing. She knows “let’s go” and will follow your lead if she trusts you. Brooms are suspicious. Strangers take time. But a family with patience and calm energy will see just how special this girl is. Abby would do best in a quieter home with older children (10+), where things don’t change too quickly or too often. She has an old injury on her back leg—nothing that slows her down, but worth noting. If you’re looking for a companion with a tender heart and the kind of loyalty that only comes from a dog who’s learned to trust, Abby might be your girl. Give her a little time, and she’ll give you everything she’s got. ========================= To apply to adopt me, please fill out the application form! form.jotform/51994996709176 .
