every effort to do the right thing for these Great Danes.

This is the handsome
Buckley. Buckley is a blue merle that
weighs about 150 pounds. He is a big boy that loves to
jump like a Tigger. He is going to need a very special
home that is willing to spend some time working on
training with him. However, he is very sensitive so he
must only have positive reward based training. For the
first 4 months that he was in his foster home, he could
not be leashed. He would tremble and drool and freeze
when it was attached to his collar. Finally one day
after much de-sensitization training, he allowed his
foster mom to take him for his first walk. He is good on
a leash but if any pressure is applied to move him, he
will freeze again. Consequently, his foster mom just
calls his name and he will come. He has not been around
other dogs because of the difficulty in placing him on a
leash but his foster mom thinks he will be good with
female dogs. She will be testing him soon. Buckley knows
that he is not supposed to jump on people so he tries
his best to jump around them. Therefore, he will not be
placed with children. He would certainly knock them
down. He also tends to put your hand and arm in his
mouth if he wants attention. He is much better but it
takes constant reminding for him to not do it. He loves
to play outside with his toys and sticks. His favorite
hobby though is to snuggle. He tries to put his entire
body on you to get rubs. He knows sit, down and
settle(which is an important one). Buckley is probably
not a good first time dog because of the work that he
needs on his manners but he is a true love. He loves to
give kisses and nibble on your ear. If you have the time
to work consistently on training this big teddy bear,
please consider opening your home and heart to him. He
will be a truly fantastic dog given the right situation
and training.
