Great Dane - Extra Large - Adult - Male - Dog - Sol
Description
Sol is a black Dane/Lab mix. He is all Dane except for some longer wavy fur on his back and his bushier tail. His build and personality are all Dane. We were contacted by a former adopter of ours about Sol. They had gotten him from someone who had adopted him from a California Dane rescue but who was moving and couldn't keep Sol anymore. I am not sure why our adopters had such problems with Sol, but they did. He was peeing in the house all the time and was not responding well to their attempts to correct him. They tried for a week with Sol and then they called me and brought him up here. Since he was another rescue's dog, I called that rescue and arranged to foster him for them until they had room for him. Once he got here, we were so impressed by Sol that we offered to find him a home and, given how overloaded they were, the rescue agreed. Sol is sweet natured, gets along with all the other dogs, is well trained and well mannered for the most part, and is a pleasure to have around. We have not seen any of his potty issues, aside from one attempt to mark furniture his fist day here. He can get scared, the way a dog who has been severely punished will, but if you are calm and gentle with him he will do whatever you ask of him most of the time. The only real exception to that seems to be when he doesn't understand what you want. He is a happy boy who seems to relish his new life here, and his joy is infectious. He is just a really nice dog and a great companion. He likes to sleep in bed with me, but will happily sleep in one of the dog beds if I don't want him up with me. He particularly likes the Kuranda in the closet as it gives him a nice safe "den" and he is surrounded by things that smell of us. He has not shown any inclination to chew on things, or any other bad behaviors. As I say he is just a really nice dog. We will post additional photos of Sol as time goes by, so check back often.
