Mr. Humphrey

Please contact JoEllen (sagdinfo@aol.com) for more information about this pet.<br/>Please apply online at http://texasgreatdane.org/adoption-application/<br/><br/>Hello,<br/><br/>My name is Mr. Humphrey and I am a gentleman ready for a home! SSPCA rescued me in April and changed the course of my life. I was scared and confused and alone in the world. I didn't make any noise at all and didn’t trust anyone. One day I was in a pen with another dog just watching the people. This lady, in a big chair that rolls, came up and started talking to me.<br/><br/>She took me for a walk, and I was so good she decided to take me home.<br/><br/>At first, I feared everything, but she was calm and let me decide to trust her when I was ready.<br/><br/>5 months later:<br/><br/>I now have both the AKC Canine Good Citizen and the AKC Urban Canine Good Citizen Certification! The trainer says I would be a great Emotional Support Dog and is willing to complete that training for free here in San Antonio.<br/><br/>Now it is time to meet my forever home with all these great new skills to share!<br/><br/>I have learned so much! I walk on a leash like the gentleman I am. I know how to sit, drop, stand, stay, wait, and many other things. I am patient and calm when we are putting on my leash and I never jump on people. I know how to move around wheelchairs and canes and learned how to stand on the footrest so it is easier to pet me.<br/><br/>I love to go for walks and see the world. I like to look out the window when we go on trips. I am learning to play with toys and to trust no one is going to hurt me. The lady says I am super smart and now that I know how, the best sofa cuddler.<br/><br/>I would like to be in a home where I can have a soft bed, that is my safe space.<br/><br/>I sometimes just want to look at you and know I'm safe near you.<br/><br/>I like to shake hands with new people, but it will take a bit of time to trust them.<br/><br/>While I don’t mind other dogs, I don’t really want to play with them. It would be great to have a home where the other dog is calm or just being the only dog. I think cats are fun to chase, so the lady says I shouldn't live with them.<br/><br/>I would do best in a home that doesn’t have small children.<br/><br/>It's important you know, the vet says I have cow-hocked rear limbs which cause a short stride. Sometimes I’m in pain, however, it is managed with medicine when my limp gives me away.<br/><br/>My new family will have to ensure to manage this for me.<br/><br/>I’m not great at jumping up on things but am happy to have help. I do have all my shots, microch<br/><br/>ip<br/><br/>and am of course neutered.<br/><br/>Mr Humphrey is around 3 yrs old and weighs 55#.<br/><br/>His adoption fee is $200 and an online application can be completed at www.texasgreatdane.org.<br/><br/>- IMPORTANT INFORMATION -<br/><br/>SASPCA Homeward Bound Dog Rescue and San Antonio Great Dane Rescue are 501(c)(3) foster-based rescue groups based in San Antonio, Texas.<br/><br/>Our group focuses on assisting open admission shelters in South Texas where over 32,000 dogs and cats are euthanized each year.<br/><br/>Our puppies and dogs are completely vetted and live in foster homes.
