Paisley Great Dane & Bullmastiff Mix Iron Station, NC

Hi everyone! My name is Paisley (AKA Pastry). Let me start with I'm the sweetest girl ever! I'm on the smaller side and I'm not sure how much bigger I'll get. I'm only about 95 pounds and somewhere in the range of 15 or 16 months (we think!!). My foster mom couldn't stand not knowing my genetics and had my dna done I'm a perfect mix of 72% great dane and 28% mastiff!!

I love my foster siblings and I love going to daycare when my foster dad doesn't work from home (so

I don't have to be crated all day!). My previous home kept me crated 24/7 for several months while my owner was sick, only letting me out for a few potty breaks and meals. Needless to say, I HATED the crate in the beginning, but I have learned to tolerate it. I still will cry a lot when I'm in it, but I go in there willingly now and will eat my meals in there too. Mom can't put a bed in my crate though because I think it's just a big squeaky toy and will end up filling my crate with stuffing by the end of the day.

I didn't know much of anything when I arrived, but I'm really good now with sit and down and working really hard on place and stay. My puppy energy can make it kinda difficult some days. Lol I generally walk pretty well on leash now too! I'm very curious on our walks and like to check everything out along the way! I will try to chase about anything that moves too, including leaves blowing in the wind.

I haven't had any accidents in the house in a really long time either! Sometimes I have a hard time telling mom I need to go, so as long as she lets me out at intervals (and watches to make sure I don't go into silly puppy mode and forget to go..lol) I'm accident free. I have been accident free at night too since the first week I was here! My mom says it's because I don't want her to kick me out of bed

I'm really just an energetic, active puppy that needs lots of playtime. I can play pretty rough, so I'm lucky that one of my foster sisters can handle my rough and tumble style of play. I also need leadership, as I am a follower for sure. It would be perfect if I had another confident dog that can show me the ways of the world and help me build the confidence that I'm lacking when I'm by myself. Places like the vet and home depot when I'm alone are pretty scary places, but no problem and kinda fun when I have a buddy leading the way! I would prefer to be with a family that is around more often during the day to minimize my crate time and get my energy out, as I can't be trusted left by myself just yet! But In true puppy fashion, when I crash, I crash hard and love to cuddle on the couch with anyone that will let me near them - 2 legged or 4 legged alike!

My mom says whoever gets to adopt me will be one of the luckiest families ever! AND if she didn't already have 4 of her own, she'd never let me go!
