wish me luck! i REALLY hope this works out!:D
Good luck!!
That sure is one cute dog!! And it has such a cute name!!
lol, I can never go to petfinder anymore, everytime I go there I fall in love with every pet I see, resulting in me bugging my mum to let me have 'just one more pet'. lol, I went to petfinder.com yesterday, fell in love with a beautiful long/medium haired white kitten.... yes, I plan on begging mum for this one, too!
dane eh???? How old is he... He is cute... What did your mom say?
mom hasn't come home yet. i can't wait till she does though! his notes don't say how old he is, but it says he's young. i have wanted a dane my whole life,but a dane/mastiff cross is good enough!:D i go on petfinder everyday s i'm used to the torture. here are his notes by the way...
Notes: Sweet gentle giant. Surrendered by his owners, who tired of having him in the house. He is a VERY well mannered house dog. At the shelter, he keeps his kennel clean, always holding it until he gets to go for a walk in the grass. Very loyal, loving dog. Adoption fee $20. Sterilization and rabies vaccine required.
20$ thats it! :eek: ... Do you think your mom woulod say yes... I hope so cuz at a price like that any idiot could adopt him thinking they wanted a big dog.... I hope your mom says yes I really do... I don't see the mastiff in him... Definate dane though, he looks shorter, but if he;s young he may still be growing Good luck!! Let us know ASAP!
yeah i think she will say yes,but ya never know. the fee isn't bad at all! i had a hard time seeing the mastiff in him too. i will let you all know as soon as i know.
Wow! $20?! That really is a great fee! I mean, we adopted Ethan for $40, and other shelters around here even go as high as $100+! I really hope your mom says yes, he seems like such a sweet dog!
fees are really starting to be outrages i know!the fee for adopting at the humane society in Terre Haute,IN is $110. i've seen as high as $300!:eek:
Wow!!! $300?!?! Thats going a bit high. I can understand if the animal had gone through a lot of medical work and vet bills, but thats still a high price!
you'd think so,but that's how all their dogs go for. they say if you can't pay that much then you obviosly aren't that good of an owner.:confused: i only payed $85 for beanie and i think i make a dern good owner!:D
Yeah, you shouldn't have to pay $300 just so they think you would be a good owner! We got both of our dogs for around $40 a peice, and who cares if they are spoiled rotton, they act happy every single day here! (except when they get an occasional virus, like the ones that all dogs usually get eventually.)
i hope that someday they realize you don't have to pay that much to prove you are a good owner.
i wish my mom would get home!i think i'm gonna excite myself to death!:p
He's a beauty for sure! If he was closer to here, I bet I'd find a home for him in a heartbeat!
I really hope she allows you to get him! He is such a cutie!
Is your mum is much more easy going when it comes to animals?
lol, if so, that far from what my mum is like. I am almost afraid to ask her for the kitten I want :D Ah well, I will still ask! (It took me over 2 years to convince her to let me have Frisk-man!)
wow he's beautiful!:D Danes are my 2nd favourite dog.Good Luck and hopefully you can get him?? Where in Texas is he?? Im in Houston right now.
Kodie cost us $90. $300!!:eek: you could buy a new purebred puppy for that much:eek: ive never heard of it being so expensive
Is your mom home Yet??????!!!!:p :p :) :)
Good luck!! He is gorgeous, and I see the mastiff :D
People told me before that when people are willing to pay alot for a dog it means they must really want them. I don't see much truth in that, as someone who gets a dog on the side of the road for free could want the dog as much as someone who goes and pays $3,000 for one!Quote:

when my parents got home i asked mom about him. i showed him to my parents and they had me e-mail the shelter about him and ask him how he is with smaller dogs(we have Beanie who is 15lbs.) it all depends on when this place e-mails me back. if i don't get a reply tomarrow i'm gonna call them. it's lookin good so far!:D :D :D i'm sooo freakin ecxited!!!:D
Congradulations so far!! I really hope it all goes well!
Good luck, he's gorgeous! :)
Wow, what a great looking dog. Best of luck!
Robin :)
that's so cool! He's B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L!!!! :D:D:D good luck!! plz keep us posted!! :D
Just remember that a lot of shelters won't adopt unless you can be there to meet the dog first in person and sign the contract. They could fax you the contract, but almost everywhere here requires that you meet the dog before adopting (for very good reason).
Where in Texas is he? I have contacts with a Great Dane rescue who maybe could get him out of that shelter. I think I'd feel better if he was in a foster home. He does have a lot of mix in him though, so I'm not positive they'd take him.
Coffee is in the WYLIE animal shelter!!! :eek: I live in Wylie. Our popluation is about 20,000. What are the chances?!?!?!
*faints*
Whatever I can do to help him, let me know. Our shelter is GREAT, even though it's city. Our AC Officers are former rescue workers, and they do SO much for the pets in their shelter! :)
WOAH... what a gorgeous boy!!!! I hope you can get him!!! I'll keep my fingers (and paws ;)) crossed everything works out.
WOW!! Beautiful doggie, please keep us posted! I hope you get him!!

Any news yet?
no real big news yet. my parents said that as long as he would be good with Beanie we could adopt him!:D
NO WAY!!! that is sooo cool!!! there may be a way you can help. if the adoption goes through could you help with a leg of the transport? i have someone putting one together.Quote:
