Description
Dog Breed: Great Dane. For over a month, Sadie wandered the streets completely alone. By the time she was finally found, this gentle 4 year old Great Dane was covered in ticks and fleas. And somehow… despite everything she’s been through, Sadie is still nothing but LOVE. She is a shelter favorite for a reason. Everyone who meets her says the same thing: she is incredibly sweet, affectionate, and so deserving of a happy ending. She has been wonderful with humans and other dogs and truly seems grateful just to finally be safe. We honestly cannot believe no one was looking for this beautiful girl. Now we need someone to help change the rest of her story. Sadie is 77 lbs, only 4 years old, and desperately needs a committed foster, foster-to-adopt, or forever home ASAP so we can get her out of the shelter THIS WEEKEND. Large dogs are so often overlooked, and the shelter is no place for a sensitive girl like her after everything she’s already endured. Can you help be the person who gives Sadie the life she has always deserved?

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.
