MID-ATLANTIC GREAT DANE RESCUE LEAGUE

Available Danes in Virginia

Please check out www.MAGDRL.org for all available Danes.
Note: We have evaluated these dogs to our best abilities. MAGDRL and its volunteers can not be held responsibile for any inaccuracies or omissions in dog evaluations. A dog may react differently in each situation.

A "Courtesy Listing" means that we are listing this dog on our website as a courtesy to a third party. The dog is not in MAGDRL's possession.

Disclaimer: You must be an approved adopter to be considered for adoption. We have families going through the adoption process on a rolling basis and we cannot "promise" or "hold" a dog for an family until they have completed the adoption process. But we have lots of great dogs we can match them a family once approved.

Blu

Picture
​Blu is a stunning 3 1/2 yr old  marled girl with moonlight colored eyes and the softest fur. She comes from a home that had multiple large dogs, to include her brother Coco. In her foster home, she loves to sit on the couch with a smaller 30 lb dog and enjoys giving lots of kisses to any bare skin on her foster mom she can find. She warms up instantly to women, and likes men also, but it takes a few more moments.
 
In her foster home, Blu enjoys carrying her stuffed animal babies around, cleaning them, playing keep away games with her brother in the yard and getting all the ear scratches she can. Blu walks beautifully on leash, until *squirrel*, but she is easily corrected with verbal commands. Her foster mom is working on some obedience training with her. (A training addendum will be part of her adoption contract) Blu is a quick learner and very motivated to please her people. Blu has a wonderfully sweet temperament, and while she loves to play and will make sure you know how much she loves seeing you, she settles down well and enjoys a long snuggle on the couch.
 
Blu gets sad when she is left alone and makes it known with mournful cries but is quite content to be left alone when she has a dog friend with her. Without another pup with her, she is also an escape artist and will try to get to wherever she thinks the party is happening without her, but in nondestructive ways.
 
While she eats out of the same bowl with her brother, with dogs she does not know as well, she can guard her food. Sometimes she tries to steal her foster friend’s food but accepts correction from the dog and her foster mom very well and leaves it alone after that.
 
Blu becomes attached to her humans very quickly. She is learning to check in when on walks as she can feel a bit insecure about adults walking toward her person. She gives a polite warning to let the humans know she is uncomfortable, though. Blu came to MAGDRL in October (5).
