Ivy Rose

Ivy Rose Great Dane ( DNA Proves Full-Blood) Unfortunately Ivy was heartworm positive when rescued but is doing slow kill treatment and doing great. Hi! I’m Ivy Rose! I’m told I’m around the age of 3, but I’m not positive about that. I’m a Great Dane that was found as a stray with a litter of puppies under a porch at a school in Texas! I made my way up here in November 2023 with my litter of puppies. They all found their homes as soon as we got to New Jersey. But me? I haven’t had the best luck. I had two potential adopters but it didn’t work with them and my foster parents now say that it wasn’t my fault. And I think they’re right! It just wasn’t the right situation or the right people introducing me correctly to my new surroundings. I’m a real big girl but I’m on a diet now and exercising with my foster parents. I’m currently living with two dogs… and one of them is actually my son! I was correctly introduced to them and I’m doing really, really well with them. I will from time to time tell my son to get out of my face but it’s just normal dog communication and behavior and he’s a little annoying anyway ( a lot annoying actually, he’s a big boy that’s still a puppy). I also currently am with two little humans (2&4) and they’re pretty cool, too. I do get a little strange towards them if they’re crying/making loud noises though. So my foster mom has been giving us some space until I learn they’re not something to be frightened of. My foster dad has been really great exposing me to new things. I’ve been around chainsaws, chippers, mini skids, air compressors and really any loud scary thing you can think of. And I’m doing great with them! I also don’t mind the horses and goats here, they’re pretty fun to watch and they don’t even phase me. I do get a little scared on walks when cars pass by and I’ll lay down. But honestly I’m getting over that pretty quickly too! All in all I think I’m a really special girl. I REALLY love staying right by my foster parents sides and have no intention on running off. If I’ve accepted you as my, “person” I really won’t leave your side and I’ll want to be next to you 24/7. I know I could make someone really happy. I think it would be best to find a home that has large dog experience, older kids or no kids (as I’ve shown to be a little over interested when they’re upset/loud), another dog friend would be a lot of fun, someone willing to continue to work with me to build my confidence/structure/discipline/obedience. I know I have a lot of potential to be really great! Get your applications in. You must have an approved application to come and meet them.
