Tiny may be a misnomer for this majestic 2-year-old weighing in at 100 pounds, but his personality is as big as his stature! Thanks to a generous donor, Tiny’s adoption fee is fully sponsored, meaning approved applicants can welcome him home at no cost. Known for his stunning merle coat and the affectionate “Dane lean,” Tiny initially greets with a deep bark but warms up quickly, often showing his excitement with enthusiastic jumps. Despite his large size, he’s a softie who thrives on human affection.

While Tiny has some anxiety in the shelter environment, he blossoms outside of it, demonstrating his good nature and trainability. He knows basic commands like come, sit, and stay, and he’s improving his leash skills. Tiny is perfect for a family with large breed experience and older children who can handle his zoomies and size. He’s also managing well with hip dysplasia, staying active and pain-free on a daily hip/joint supplement.

Tiny has shown to be selective with other adult dogs but gentle with puppies, suggesting he might prefer being either an only pet or having a canine sibling that matches his play style. Outside the kennel, Tiny is much more at ease, often interacting positively with strangers during his outings, thanks to dedicated volunteers who help him decompress.

If you’re ready to give this loyal and loving boy a home, start by filling out a pre-adoption application on our website. After processing, we can arrange a meet-and-greet. Remember, all our dogs come fully vetted: spayed/neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and more. Visit https://hsburnettcty.org/adoption-guidelines/ to apply and learn more about our adoption process.
