Atticus

Meet Atticus!<br/><br/>FOSTERED IN PENSACOLA <br/>6FT FENCE REQUIRED <br/><br/>At 3 years old, Atticus is that magical Great Dane combination of part goofball, part tender-hearted old soul, and part very serious security detail. He is deeply devoted to his people and fully committed to the Velcro lifestyle — if youre moving, hes coming too. Privacy is overrated anyway.<br/><br/>Atticus enjoys the company of other dogs and currently lives happily with two other Great Danes in his foster home — one male and one female. He fits right in with his foster siblings and would do well in a home with another compatible dog.<br/><br/>Atticus takes his job as guardian seriously. He is protective of his people, his family and his home. Because of this, he needs a relatively quiet household without a constant stream of visitors, frequent foot traffic or people randomly dropping by at unexpected times. A home with children would not be the best fit, as kids often come with friends, sleepovers and a steady rotation of unfamiliar people coming and going. Atticus needs an adopter who understands and respects his protective nature and can provide appropriate structure, boundaries and management when guests do visit. Once he knows and trusts his people, he is an incredibly loyal and devoted companion.<br/><br/>Cats? Yes — with a proper introduction! Atticus may be curious at first (those knife-mitten creatures are fascinating), but once he understands the rules, hes perfectly capable of peaceful cohabitation.<br/><br/>Hes proven himself to be a trustworthy house guy and does well with free roam. Crates arent really his vibe, but he has discovered the luxury of a plush dog bed and takes his comfort very seriously. Once settled, he sleeps like a professional.<br/><br/>On leash, Atticus is a dream — no pulling, no drama. Hes working on his basic commands and is eager to learn, especially if snacks are involved. Thunderstorms dont bother him, and hes currently perfecting important life skills like fetch and tug-of-war (the rules are... flexible).<br/><br/>Like many dogs adjusting to new places, Atticus needed a little time to settle in at first. Translation: he really, really loves his people and wants to make sure he knows where they are and what theyre doing — even if that means supervising the trip to the mailbox. Because of this, a secure 6-foot fence is required, but as he continues to feel safe and settled, this behavior continues to improve.<br/><br/>Atticus would thrive with someone who is home often, in a quieter household, and preferably with another dog for companionship. He needs someone who will appreciate his loyal, protective nature and give him the structure and boundaries he needs to be successful. In return, he promises endless affection, loyal companionship, a lifetime supply of soulful Dane stares and more belly-rub requests than you can possibly fulfill.<br/><br/>Atticus is neutered, fully vaccinated and microchipped. He is being treated for heartworms using the slow-kill method (Doxycycline and ProHeart 12). His adoption fee is $350.<br/><br/>To apply to adopt, please visit www.nwflgdr.com/adopt and review the requirements before submitting an application.<br/><br/>Please note: NWFLGDR does not transport. All approved adopters must pick up Atticus in person from his foster home.
