Pia
Large Female Great Dane
Located in Queensland
Not available for interstate adoption
Pia is a couch potato. A 60kg couch potato.
Being a big puppy she has crazy spurts of energy then planks down wherever she stops and sleeps.
One of the favourite games to play when she's having a crazy zoom is "The floor is lava" where she jumps for couch to couch. It's not our favourite game 😣.
She is toilet trained and now mostly crate trained and usually responds to "in your crate" because we feed her in there.
Like most danes she loves pats and attention but I don't think she was taught how to play because she's just scared of toys like ropes, balls and sticks.
She is quite submissive but is still very playful with our grumpy old boy who she loves to play bitey face with (she usual lets him win). Pia has never lived without a male doggy companion, so her new home MUST have a male doggy companion! Changing her drastically to a home with no other dog will probably cause a lot of stress.
She seems to have pretty much no basic training, not even really recognizing her own name when she first came to us. She knows her name much better now and is learning to sit and working on her recall.
She's usually very welcoming to new people and doesn't bark often and hasn't tried to jump our low fences yet.
She loves car rides and walks on leash OK but needs a bit of training and a lot of manners in general.
Medical Notes
Her desexing is booked in but hasn't been done yet. She will be ready to go to her new home in a few weeks. So taking applications now.

- the foster carer will contact you to arrange a meet in their own time. We ask that you make time to come to the foster carers location/nearby. More than one trip is normally needed, so if you are unable to travel then we cannot accept your application.
