Story
Meet Rudy, another one of our handsome young male Danes!
Rudy just turned one on January 10, and lives up to every bit of what a young Dane acts like. He LOVES to get the zoomies and run around. He LOVES to lean on you for affection and attention. And, he LOVES his treats!
Rudy was surrendered by a family with young children because he would jump and the children became scared to be around him, causing him to have to be crated a lot of the time. They realized that was not fair to him so they made the decision to ask us for help, and we're so glad they did!
While it is true that he can jump, he also knows commands, is completely housetrained and crate trained, and so far, has been able to be left out loose when unattended! He does need some leash training, as he is a puller, but as with any young dog, consistent, disciplined training will work wonders with this boy!
He lived with a small dog when he was a puppy, but not for the last 6 months. He has met other big and small dogs and been fine, but he is quite exuberant in his play style, so we would not recommend he go to a home with any senior dogs, or for reasons stated above, young children. He will not be able to go to a home with cats, unfortunately.
His ideal home would have a fenced yard so that he could still continue to get his zoomies when he wants, and perhaps even an active home that would allow him to get attention a lot of the time. However, that is not necessary. He could be fine as an only dog as long as his socialization skills are maintained, preferably in a doggy day care environment or known dog situation (not public dog parks).
Rudy's is fully vaccinated, microchipped, heartworm negative, and will be neutered on March 17. He can be adopted prior to that date with the understanding that the adopter would have to get him back to Sarasota that morning by 8:30.
He is fostered in Sarasota and his adoption fee is $500.
