The Mid-Atlantic Great Dane Rescue League is looking for loving homes for giant dogs!

Our non-profit is seeking both permanent and foster homes for our 100 to 200 lb. "Gentle Giants" in the Mid-Atlantic states. Fenced yards, carpeted indoor steps and other requirements apply.

The Mid-Atlantic Great Dane Rescue Leagues local NJ chapter has been bombarded in the last few weeks with about 20 owners turning in their dogs to rescue. The reasons have been many; from the dog grew too big" to I cant afford to pay for food and vet bills" to Im moving and I dont want the dog anymore." Owning a real-life Scooby Doo" is a giant responsibility when it comes to understanding obedience training, vet and food bills, but with education in advance of owning one, it can be a rewarding experience for the right family. These 100 to 200 pound Velcro dogs" are extremely lovable and do not require large homes to live in as is often thought.

Our non-profit organization is in dire need of qualified people to foster and adopt these dogs. Certain requirements apply, such as a fenced yard and indoor-carpeted steps so the dog doesnt slide down wooden steps. Volunteers are needed, as are monetary donations.
