Description
Dog Breed: Great Dane (short coat). Bruno (A137290) is a 1-year-and-9-month-old great dane who weighed 104.5 pounds on intake! 03/03/26 This big guy is Bruno! Bruno is back at the shelter due to no fault of his own. While in his previous they had wonderful things to share about him! Bruno was described as a friendly dog who does great with people of all ages! He can be a little shy at first, but warms up after appropriate introductions. Bruno was also said to do well with other animals. However, it was previously recommended that he go to a home without other dogs due to sharing issues, but he was said to play nicely outside the home. Appropriate introductions are key to setting him up for success. Bruno was said to be kennel-trained, housebroken, and to ride well in a vehicle. If you are unfamiliar with his breed we encourage you to do the research prior to bringing him home. If you are interested in meeting Bruno, please let us know! 01/25/25 This sweet gentle giant is Bruno! Bruno was brought to the shelter because he was not doing well with the other dogs in the home. Bruno loves other dogs and does great with them most of time. However, he gets very possessive over his food. Due to this behavior, Bruno's next home should not have any other dogs. He will do well with other dogs when on a walk or at the park, but he would like to be able to go home to a house where he is the only canine. Bruno was said to ride well in the car and to be kennel trained and housebroken. He was said to do well with kids and be gentle when playing. He was even said to be good with horses! Bruno loves to cuddle on the couch but may benefit from a basic obedience class with a certified trainer, as he does not have any training. Bruno can be shy around new people, but was generally described as a friendly, affectionate dog. If you are interested in making Bruno your only dog, please give the shelter a call!

Overview:
The Great Dane is an impressive and regal breed, often dubbed the "Apollo of Dogs" for its dignified stature and noble appearance. Originating in Germany, where it was historically bred for hunting boar, this giant breed is renowned for its immense size and striking presence. Physically, Great Danes are characterized by their tall, muscular build, short coat (available in various colors like fawn, brindle, black, blue, and harlequin), and expressive eyes. Despite their formidable size, they possess a surprisingly gentle and affectionate temperament, making them wonderful family companions. They are known for being patient with children and generally get along well with other pets. While their size might suggest otherwise, Great Danes can adapt to apartment living if provided with sufficient daily exercise, as they are not overly energetic indoors. However, prospective owners should be aware of certain health considerations, including a predisposition to bloat (gastric dilatation-volvulus), hip dysplasia, and certain heart conditions, necessitating careful breeding and regular veterinary check-ups. Overall, a Great Dane offers a loving and loyal addition to the right home.
