🚨🚨🚨🚨We are still urgently searching for a new foster for our boy Quinn! 🚨🚨🚨🚨

***TIME SENSITIVE*** QUINN NEEDS NEW PLACEMENT BEFORE AUG 10***

Hi! I’m Quinn and I am 2 years old! I sure do love hanging out with my people, they say that I am SUPER people friendly. Since coming into care at For the Love of Danes Rescue I have been learning lots with my awesome Foster Mom & Dad, but unfortunately they cannot keep me, so I’m looking for a new couch to call my own. My Foster Mom & Dad (okay…AND the trainer that is helping me learn these things called  "manners") all think I would be best in a house all my own. I LOVE all the farm animals that I live with and am BFFs with the resident goat, but other dogs and cats are not going to help me succeed right now. Dog savvy older kids would be okay for me.

I am learning how to walk on a leash and not be so excited when I see new dogs, but it is HARD! So I need someone with some experience working with my exuberance. Our For the Love of Danes trainer will work with my adoptive family to help me be the best dog I can be.

Bye for now 💙🐾

Quinn is neutured and utd on his vaccines. If you are interested in having Quinn join your family, please fill out an application, you can find it on our website http://loveofdanesrescue.org/

If you have already filled out an application for adoption, please reach out to us on Facebook messenger or send an email to [email protected] so we know you are available.

UPDATE: ADOPTED!! Congratulations to Dutch and his new furever family 💙🐾

🚨💙 AVAILABLE DANE 💙🚨

NAME: Dutch
AGE: 8 years
LOCATION: Edmonton, AB

We are searching for a new furever home for this sweet boy. Dutch comes to us after his favorite human passed away suddenly and unexpectedly. We want to help this gentle giant get settled with a new furever family so he can live out his golden years. Dutch has already experienced such an extreme change and loss, so he is temporarily staying with family members, however this can only be a short-term option. He is currently in a home where there is a young child and other animals. He had no interest in cats, does well with children, and other dogs if properly introduced. Dutch has shown some resource guarding with his food, this could be due to his sudden home changes, however he knows how to be a good boy and to go lay down on the couch when the humans are eating.

Dutch is neutured and will be utd on his vaccines. Dutch as an allergy to chicken and needs food that avoids any chicken or chicken byproduct in it.

If you are interested in having Dutch join your family, please fill out an application, you can find it on our website http://loveofdanesrescue.org/

If you have already filled out an application for adoption, please reach out to us on Facebook messenger or send an email to [email protected] so we know you are available.

💙💙COURTESY POST💙💙

NAME: Duke
AGE: 4 years old
LOCATION: Langley, BC

We are hoping to help Duke's family find him a new forever home. Unfortunately, Duke's Dad is facing a serious health battle, extensive stage 4 cancer, and while the decision does not come easy, he feels the best choice for Duke is to be with a family who can continue giving him a happy life.

Things to know about this sweet boy:

He is a 4 year old Great Dane mix. Aside from being a handsome, loving, good boy, he has lived with other dogs with no issues. Duke loves playing with other dogs he has met but has not had any experience with cats. He will be up to date with vaccinations before going to his new home and had no past health issues. Duke recently started showing some food aggression. However, it is highly possible that it could be due to all the disruption in his life.

Duke is in need of a new home asap, if you are interested in having him join your family, you can reach out on our Facebook messenger or by email [email protected] then we will connect you with the owner's family to coordinate as Duke will not be in our care, we just want to help this family during this difficult time 💙

The whole team here at the For The Love of Danes is sending Duke's family prayers and well wishes during this difficult time 🙏

🚨🚨🚨URGENT FOSTER NEEDED🚨🚨🚨

We are searching for a foster/foster to adopt home for our handsome 2 year old boy Quinn. We believe that he would do best in a home with no other animals. Quinn is a very sweet boy, however, while he adjusts to new environments, he can be overwhelmed, causing him to be reactive to other animals. We need him to be placed in a home that is willing to work with us through his behaviors and manners so we can be successful in finding him his furever home. For anyone who has little human, we ask that they have had experience with large breed dogs because Quinn forgets how big he can be sometimes 😂

If you can help, please fill out an application, you can find it on our website http://loveofdanesrescue.org/

If you have already filled out an application for fostering or adopting, please reach out to us on Facebook messenger or send an email to [email protected] so we know you are available.

Remember Beans?

We are happy to report he is settling into his furever home with his amazing new family 💙🐾 His new Dad is helping him work through some manners and learning to trust. I don't know about you, but he sure does like he is mastering snuggles on the couch 😆👏 we couldn't be happier to see Beans living his best life !

Our Hobo Harvey is no longer a Hobo. He went from stray to stay! Harvey is settling in very comfortably and quickly with his new furever family 💙🐾 congratulations to Harvey for finding such a loving home!

03/06/2024

FOSTER FOUND! THANK YOU!! URGENT FOSTER NEEDED!

We were able to get Harvey out of the kennel environment, however, the temporary foster home he is current in has given us the important opportunity to test some behaviors and we feel that Harvey needs more time to decompress in a quiet home. We think while Harvey transitions from being a stray, to a kennel and now a home, we want to keep him in a foster to adopt home that is child and animal free. As he decompresses we can start to introduce animals interactions and different humans. We need to move Harvey ASAP so we can set him up for success to find his forever home 💙

You can apply to be a foster to adopt through our website or if you have already done so and you are interested in this fella, please reach out asap on Facebook Messenger 🐾

FOSTER FOUND! THANK YOU!!🚨🚨🚨URGENT FOSTER NEEDED🚨🚨🚨

"Let me out!"

We are still searching and are in desperate need of a urgent foster care home for our boy Harvey. It has almost been a month since he came into care at the ACCC and is struggling to adapt to a kennel environment. The amazing team at ACCC is doing their best to make him comfortable but Harvey is unable to settle in such a busy and noisy environment. We all feel the best move is for him to be placed in a foster home where we can truly get to know this sweet boy.

Harvey is a 2 year old nuetered male who is ready to jail break! He is still very much a pup and shows it with lots of energy. He would do best was a large, confident playmate to help him burn off some energy. He is not sure about leash walking since he was a stray, but he is a clever boy and learns quickly. Especially when there is treats involved, I am very motivated. I LOVE treats, but I love the people who bring them to me more 🐾🙂

If you can help us break Harvey out, please fill out an application, you can find it on our website http://loveofdanesrescue.org/

If you have already filled out an application for fostering, please reach out to us on Facebook messenger or send an email to [email protected] so we know you are available.

25/05/2024

FOSTER FOUND! THANK YOU!!

We are still searching for a foster home for Harvey. After some additional testing while in care at ACCC, we believe Harvey would do best in a home with no other dogs or a larger breed that is able to keep up with his big energy 😊

UPDATE: FOSTER FOUND 💙🙏

We are still looking for an urgent home for our boy Coco, if you can help, please fill out an application on our website, if you have already filled one out, then please send us a message through Facebook messenger 🐾

02/05/2024

⚠️🚨 FOSTER OR ADOPTER NEEDED ASAP 🚨⚠️

Name: Coco
Age: 6 years
Location: Alberta

We are looking for a foster or adoptive home for sweet old man Coco asap. Coco is looking to spend his golden years with a furever family that has no cats as they are too much fun to chase, and he doesn't realize how big he is. Coco can be dog selective, so it would be best if he was the only dog.

Once Coco finds people he loves, he will use them as a personal chair 🤣 He does best with older kids as the little ones can be a bit too much.

Coco is already nuetured and up to date on shots. We need to place him in a home by or before Wednesday, May 8th. He is located just outside of Edmonton, but for the right home, transportation can be arranged.

If you are interested in adding this handsome fella to your family, please complete the online adoption application on our website:

UPDATE: ADOPTED 💙🐾

🎉🚨 ADOPTABLE DANE AVAILABLE 🚨🎉

Name: Beans
Age: 2 years
Location: Alberta

We would like to introduce Beans. He is a sweet, lovable boy who loves to go on car rides. Beans can be nervous, so you will find him following you around in hopes of getting lots of pets. He is nuetered and ready for his furever home tentatively May 18th.

He loves being outside to play, but with those long legs, you better watch out because he can run very fast! Beans also enjoys being on leash and going for walks. He still needs to work on his recall training but is very motivated by treats. He can be a fast eater, so he is currently using a slow feed bowl.

Beans would do best in a home that he would be left alone for minimal amounts of time until he settled in and has a routine.

He appears to be good with dogs, he is has been to dog parks regularly. However, he would do best with no cats as he finds them so much fun to chase, and should be monitored when around children because he be uncertain with how busy they are.

Name: Georgie
Age: 3 years
Location: Revelstoke, BC

Georgie is searching for her furever home or foster until she does. She is a sweet 3 year old girl who loves spending time with all humans.

She also just finished her medication as it was confirmed at the vet she had kennel cough.

She does well with other dogs but has not been tested with cats. She is currently located in Revelstoke but arrangments can be made to transport her for the right home. (She will be in Calgary this weekend if a potential foster / adopter is interested)

🚨⚠️AVAILABLE DANE⚠️🚨

Name: Apollo
Age: 3 years
Location: Calgary, AB

Apollo is officially accepting applications for adoption.

Some updates from his foster mom:

"Apollo is the sweetest, lovable, typical teenage Dane. Full of energy, he loves playing and then crashing for some cuddles on the couch. He has gotten along well with other dogs. Apollo loves the attention from all his foster humans, although he is still learning his size around the smaller humans. He doesn’t hesitate to give kisses to little faces down at his level. We have been working on his manners as well as walking on leash. Training has been going well, and he is responsive to treats. He’s scheduled to be neutered Friday, April 12th, and will be ready to find his forever home soon after!"

Apollo is located in Calgary, but arrangements can be made to get him to other locations if the right furever home is found.

🎉🚨 ADOPTABLE DANE 🚨🎉

Name: Dinah
Age: 2 years
Location: Edmonton

Here is Dinah's story.

This sweet girl just turned 2 years old. She seems to like cats and other Danes/dogs of all sizes. She loves to be outside and go for walks. She is fully house trained, microchipped, and up to date on vaccinations. Dinah comes from a good home, who ultimately had to make the difficult decision to rehome her after facing unexpected life struggles and financial hardship. While she is quiet and friendly, she will need some time to decompress in a new home, the same as any rescue. She is slow to put on weight but recently started to eat well and is slowly gaining the necessary weight. Dinah has had exposure to children and has done well. However, she can be shy with men.

Dinah is waiting for her vet appointment to be spayed, so if she is adopted prior to the appointment, she will be in recovery in her new home.

If you are interested in having this sweet girl join your family, please fill out an application on our website:

http://loveofdanesrescue.org/

If you have already submitted an application online, you can reach out to us at [email protected] or through Facebook messenger.

FOSTER FOUND 💙👏🐾
Thank you

Name: Apollo
Age: 3 years
Location: Calgary

This is sweet boy Apollo. He is 3 years old and needs a foster home asap! He is currently in a foster home that lives in an apartment building. Unfortunately, Apollo is working on his separation anxiety and he barks to let everyone know that his foster mom is not home, so we are needing for him to be placed in a house environment to avoid disturbing other renters in an apartment building.

Things we know so far are that Apollo is a sweet boy who loves attention from humans of all ages and playing with other dogs. We have not tested him with cats. Apollo is located in Calgary, but arrangements can be made to get him to other locations in Alberta if the right foster home is found.

Apollo will be scheduled for his neutering once we have him settled into his new foster home.
