Looking for a Home – Available Dogs
Many of the gentle giants that come into our rescue have been neglected or abused. Others have simply been abandoned by their owners due to a divorce, a new baby, moving, or natural disaster. We are often told that they got “too big” or “too expensive” and many of the dogs below come to us with very little training. Despite their past, rescue dogs are incredibly forgiving and very eager to please. They have so much to give and are all very special. We are looking for forever homes and permanent families who will love their new addition unconditionally and give them the love and support they need and deserve for the rest of their lives.

Roc is a 1 year old, Black, male Great Dane. This sweet boy was surrendered to a shelter by his owner. They indicated that they simply didn’t have enough time to spend with him. It is believed that Roc had been constantly kept in his crate from 8 weeks to 6 months which resulted in him being unable to stretch his legs and prohibited them from developing properly and stunted his growth. He only weighs 70 lbs currently but does have some growing left to do.
Rocky is a very handsome 3 year old, Fawnequin, male Great Dane. Rocky came to BDHPI due to no fault of his own and is likely an unfortunate victim of abuse and neglect.

Rocky needs a family that can make him feel secure and show him that not all people are bad.
