My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Dog's Name: Gracie



Location : Fort Atkinson, WI
Age or Date of Birth: July 2021 (estimate)
Gender: Female
Breed: Cane Corso Mix
Foster Dog's Weight: 83 lbs



Gracie gets along with:
Dogs?: Female dogs
Needs a slow introduction to other dogs
Cats?: Unknown but unlikely due to prey drive
Kids?:  Older kids, needs slow introduction



Gracie is very loyal and stubborn, she loves her person and is very protective of them from both strangers and other dogs. She prefers to spend her time following her person around the house and snuggling. She plays well with her younger (but bigger) foster sister, but doesn't always play well with her foster brother (bigger) and gets protective of her foster sister if she is playing with my male. Gracie has shown aggression towards her foster brother, but listens when sheis told no or to stop.  She snores like a freight train and likes to lay in her kennel at times, she is kenneled at night and when her foster mom is gone. She does have aggression tendencies and is frightened by strangers (which triggers her aggression). 



Her perfect adopter would not have any kids or other pets (could potentially have a female non-dominant sibling with slow intros and strict boundaries to not allow her to exhibit alpha behavior). The ideal adopter would be knowledgeable of guardian breeds and preferably willing to put in the strict training (with or without a trainer depending on experience) to continue to work on her previously stated behaviors.  Due to her high prey drive, she will need constant supervision outside if her home does not have a fence.

More about this rescue

Just Giant Rescue Inc (JGRI) is a dog rescue catering to giant breed dogs. We don’t discriminate against breed, but they must be giants such as the regal Great Dane, loyal Mastiff, and clownish Saint Bernard, to name a few.

We strive to follow the 3 R’s.
• Rescuing. We rescue from all types of situations, owner surrenders, and from local shelters. We strive to help as many as we can, with what resources we have available.
• Rehabilitating. All dogs are fostered inside loving homes, becoming temporary family members. They are fully vet checked, vaccinated, spayed/neutered, and guarded against heartworm, fleas and ticks. They are also given a temperament test prior to being eligible for adoption.
• Re-homing. Each dog is individually matched with the best suited adoptive home for them. Each applicant wanting to adopt must fill out an application and complete a home check prior to being approved.
