My story

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

NEWLY AVAILABLE



Introducing Storm & Thunder!



Curious Loving Calm Affectionate



Hi there! We’re Storm and Thunder, a bonded pair of Great Danes looking for a forever home together. We’re a calm, loving, and affectionate duo who bring double the joy and double the snuggles! Our easy-going personalities and curiosity make us the perfect companions. We love to mirror each other’s behaviors, so when one of us is happy, you can bet the other is too.



We’re friendly with everyone we meet, including kids. While we haven’t lived with children before, we’ve spent time around them with no issues. Since we’re big boys, we’d feel most comfortable in a home with kids aged 8 and older.



When it comes to other dogs, we get along well with proper introductions in a structured environment. We haven’t met any cats yet, but we’ve shown a bit of prey drive when spotting squirrels or rabbits, so it’s something to keep in mind.



What We Love:




  • Walks & Exploring: We enjoy strolling together and taking in the sights and smells.

  • Attention & Affection: We’re total cuddle bugs who adore scratches, snuggles, and being close to our people.

  • Car Rides: We love hopping in the car for adventures together.

  • Toys & Play: Storm is the playful one, always ready for stuffed toy fun. Thunder prefers to watch but still enjoys being part of the action.



We’re housebroken and crate-trained, though we’re also trustworthy with free roam—we’ve never been destructive. We know commands like "sit" and "come," and our well-mannered behavior reflects the love and care we’ve been given.



We’re both in great health with no current concerns, so you can count on us to keep up with all your adventures and snuggles.



Forever Home Wish List:




  • Together Forever: We’re a bonded pair and must stay together.

  • Yard: A mid-size to large yard would be perfect for us to explore and play.

  • Kids: If there are children in our new home, they should be 8+ years old.

  • Fence: While a physical fence isn’t required, it’s recommended for our safety.

  • Patience & Love: We need a family who will give us time to adjust and continue to shower us with love.



Fun Fact: Thunder is a classic Dane leaner who loves scratches and has the cutest chattering sound when he’s excited. Storm, on the other hand, is the playful one of us, always ready for some fun with his stuffed toys. Together, we make an inseparable duo that will fill your home with endless love and joy.



If you’re looking for double the love, double the fun, and double the cuddles, we might just be the perfect pair for you. We can’t wait to meet you!



Storm and Thunder are truly a beautiful pair, deserving of a loving forever home where they can continue to share their bond and enrich the lives of their new family.

The rescue is made up of all volunteers who lovingly give of their time and money to help these wonderful dogs. Volunteers include people from every walk of life, all with one thing in common, love of Great Danes.

Each animal coming to the rescue is temperament tested, given a physical, vaccinated, wormed, checked for heartworm and tick borne illnesses and treated as needed. All dogs are sterilized before being re homed. The dog is then placed in a foster home to wait for someone to love it forever.
