Male Dog, Great Dane
Great Dane (Medium Coat)
Description:
Tacoma is a gorgeous young black merle Great Dane. He grew up with one of his brothers, a cat and some rabbits and has been around kids when out and about. He is a gentle, sweet-natured giant who's been well-socialized, but he can be a bit clumsy when he plays or gets excited. He's still working on his house-training - we always recommend starting at square one with housetraining when adopting a new dog, but making sure they get PLENTY of opportunities to get outside and succeed, and then celebrating and praising when they DO get it right. And if they have an accident, handle it as an accident - just quietly clean up the mess using an enzymatic cleaner so they don't think that's the spot to go in the future because of scent left behind. Punishing a pet for elimination mistakes doesn't do a thing except confuse and frighten your pet.Tacoma has had some allergic reactions to chicken formula food, so regular check-ins with a veterinarian will be very important. Tacoma's previous guardians loved him and feel he is a wonderful dog, they just had too many animals to care for! If you've got space in your heart for a big, tall sweetie, come and meet Tacoma!
