Meet Hercules D5968

Hi there! My name is Hercules, and I’m a 3 year old Great Dane. I’m on the smaller side on the Dane scale, but definitely still 100lbs of love and energy.  A few things about me, I love to run and play with toys, I’m very loyal, I’m ok with sleeping all day or I’m happy to help you around the house with all your tasks. I love to be involved and part of the party. If you’re doing things that I can’t help with, I’m very content in my massive kennel where I sprawl out and chew a bone, or cuddle up in a ball and nap. Some things that are important to know before meeting me is my foster mom is adamant I go to someone or a family that understands large breeds, how to keep me safe, and most importantly how to read my body language. Per the Great Dane breed I’m a bit judgmental at first and prefer to meet new people out of my kennel, with my handler near, and I like to be the one that decides if I want to come to you and when. Once I feel calm and get a good wif of your vibes, then I’ll let you know you’re cool by letting you pet my back and booty. Deep down I’m a big cuddly lap dog that loves to lean into yah to relax but sometimes getting to that takes me a little time. I’m hopeful that whoever adopts me will give me plenty of time to bond with them directly before I start meeting a lot of new people and pups. Speaking of fellow pups, I tend to do well with most other dogs, but like everything introductions should be slower and controlled. I was intact till just a bit ago so between my size and manly posture and lingering testosterone still flowing through my body it tends to be other dogs that don’t like me first and then I choose based on their reaction to not really care for them. My foster mom runs a dog boarding business out of our home so I do get a ton of exposer every day to new dogs and random people from time to time and she is happy to help anyone that is interested in adopting me move forward with training, behavioral & posture explanations so you will know all my cues and can take over as my person so I can live a long healthy life with you going forward. I know my bio blip is a little longer than just Im a cute cuddly puppy, but I promise you that I’m a gosh darn good pup that’s really looking to settle in to their forever home and love on someone everyday. And just a reminder if my pictures don’t do justice - I’m extremely Handsome and 10/10 puppy eyes 

Adoption Process
Our adoption process includes an adoption application. After reviewing your application and contacting the vet and personal references, a meeting is scheduled between the potential adopter and the pet, in the foster's home or a neutral animal friendly place. If there are any resident animals within the home, it is required that they meet at this time. After the meeting, a home visit by one our representatives is REQUIRED prior to finalizing any adoption and we must meet all members of the household where the pet will be living sometime during the adoption process. 6 month post-adoption check in is completed.
