Description:
*** According to dogbreedinfo.com, the history of Great Danes go way back. Incised on some Greek money dating back to 36 B.C. is the image of a dog very similar to the Great Dane of today. The Great Dane is known as the "Apollo of all dogs." In 407 A.D. German Gaul and part of Italy and Spain were invaded by an Asiatic people (the Alans) who brought with them powerful mastiff-like dogs. In Germany especially, where these magnificent animals capable of overcoming bears and wild boars were much admired, a process of selective breeding was begun. The dogs were crossed with Irish Greyhounds, and the issue was the beautiful, large, thin, agile dog known today as the Great Dane. Despite the fact that they are called Danes in English, these dogs have nothing to do with Denmark. The Great Dane is a gentle giant. Dignified, kind, sweet and affectionate, it is playful and patient with children. It loves everyone and needs to be around people. The Great Dane does not bark much and only becomes aggressive when the circumstances require it. A steady dog, responsible and dependable. Brave and loyal, it is a good watchdog. They need plenty of exercise - at least a good walk a day. The expected life-span is about 10 years, although some live 12-13.
While the office staff was transferring paperwork into our new file cabinet, a staff member just happened to glance at Cannon's intake date. Cannon has been with Pet Rescue by Judy since 2008, making him our longest resident. Won't you consider giving him a permanent home?
Foster update: I have been keeping Cannon for the past week during Mary's vacation.
He has acted like a gentleman with the dogs and does really well with the puppies. Likes walks , Definitly needs lots of exercise. Judy
Cannon is a wonderful brindle Great Dane/Lab mix. He was adopted from us and later surrendered to the Orange County SPCA because of allergies and an upcoming move. One of our volunteers saw him, thought he looked familiar, and then noticed his name - Cannon! It was our Cannon! She called Judy and he was picked up right away. Everyone at Pet Rescue By Judy loves Cannon. He is a great dog who needs an experienced owner who knows how to establish leadership. He knows his commands and will obey if he knows you're in charge. He is a fun guy who loves to run and will be happy to join you in whatever adventure you embark on. A fenced in yard that he can wear himself out in would be a joy! With that, he will be a fantastic member of the pack. Please, won't you give Cannon a chance?
Here are the highlights of Cannon's personality and training, from his foster:
• Needs a calm-assertive owner who will assume the role as pack leader and maintain structure
• Sweet and loving and wants to understand what is asked of him so that he can obey
• Currently lives with four other dogs but does not like another dog to get in his face -- will snap at them but stops immediately when corrected
• Not a dog who can be let loose at a dog park, all socialization must be supervised
• Heels perfectly on the leash and does not pull
• Knows the command "leave it" and will leave things alone
• Will run beside a bike
• Needs daily exercise and structure to help him feel secure
