Harlequin Great Dane Seeking the Right Home
We are looking for a loving new home for our very affectionate intact male Harlequin Great Dane.
This decision has not been made lightly. The primary reason for rehoming is that he has aggression toward horses. We live in the country beside a horse farm, and the constant presence of horses causes him significant stress and distress. We believe he would be much happier in a home where he is not regularly exposed to horses.
He is a loving, people-oriented dog who would do best with an individual or couple who can provide him with the time, attention, and companionship he deserves. He enjoys being with his people and forms strong bonds with those he trusts.
He has lived with our older male Great Dane, and for the most part they coexist well. There have been occasional instances where he has attempted to assert dominance, but he has backed down quickly. His aggression has been directed only toward horses and, on occasion, our other male Dane.
He has been good with our children and has never shown aggression toward them. As with any large dog, interactions with children have always been supervised, and he has never been left alone with them.
Because he has been raised in a rural environment, his socialization with unfamiliar people and animals is somewhat limited. He lives in the country and is exercised off leash on our property, with most of his interactions being with family members, visitors to our home, and animals he already knows. As a result, his behavior in busy public settings, dog parks, or around large numbers of unfamiliar dogs and people is unknown.
We are committed to finding the right fit for him and will be selective about his next home. Experience with giant breeds is preferred. We want to ensure he goes to a safe, stable environment where he can thrive and receive the love, structure, and attention he deserves.
Please message us if you would like more information or believe you may be a good match for him.
