WOOFS! Barks, it is always a great pawleasure to catch up with my friend the "Great Dane Dame" from the Mid-Atlantic Great Dane Rescue League who, along with several other very impawtant volunteers, help beautiful Great Danes find "Forever Homes!" This week, she brought by a Mantle Great Dane named "Little John."

Paws, my curiosity got the bestest of me and though I usually know everything and am right the first time, I decided to look this up to be sure I was sharing accurately! WOOFS! What is a Mantle Great Dane? It refers to the coloring. The blanket "coat" per see, over a white coloring is considered a Mantle Great Dane! 

Little John is around 2-years-old and a very happy go-lucky kinda fella. At first, he can be a bit shy or hesitant to be near his humans but it doesn't take time for him to warm up.

WOOFS! Little John isn't into mini-humans of any age really. He doesn't understand the many and constantly changing various moods of his foster mom's teenager.  He prefers a quiet and consistently routine household. 

Little John is a dominate-alpha male kinda guy. He gets along with other dogs but prefers that he is your one-and-only-dog-that-is! Barkingly, he is super-kind and respectful to cats so he wouldn't mind one in his new "Forever Home!" Woofs, and if you have farm animals, he's cool with that too!

He is pawsitively trustworthy to roam the house but would pawssibly steal food if it were left out for him to find.  He doesn't need to be crated. Barkingly, he'll let you know when he needs to go out! 

Little John's energy level is a bit different from other dogs.  It's pretty much based on his humans! If you have a high-energy time of play, he'll happily join in. If you are a bit down or needing quiet, he will join you. Pawingly, when you have company, if they are calm and quiet with him, he'll do the same. WOOFS!

Little John does well on a leash though at times his "pack-leader" self will pull on the leash. With time,  training, and learning about his humans, he may do better on the leash.

Little John is a sweet fella who loves attention. Woofslys, he is pawlite about it though. Many dogs will press on their humans or get on furniture to get the attention they want. Barks, he will lay his head on your lap for attention but doesn't smother you. When you have had enough, he'll go along with you. Woofs? Don't see that much in Great Danes! 

Little John would love to be adopted by a couple who will take him places with them! Woofs, especially ones who enjoy camping and hiking!
