Meet Denali, a magnificent mix of Great Dane and Hound, born on September 16, 2018! 🎉 This big-hearted boy tips the scales at a sturdy 95 pounds, making him the first of nine delightful puppies. With a story that tugs at the heartstrings, Denali is looking for a forever home due to his previous owner's illness and changing family circumstances. 🥺 Denali is a gentle giant who has shared his space with other large breed dogs and has mingled with a variety of fosters—from spirited puppies to the majestic Tibetan Mastiffs. With slow and careful introductions, he’s likely to warm up to most dogs—though he hasn't had experience with small or toy breeds. 🐾 Let’s be clear, though: if you have cats or smaller furries, Denali isn’t the right match for you. This sweet boy may be a little unsure in new situations, often expressing himself with his adorable hound-like baying bark. He absolutely must have a securely fenced yard—at least four feet high—to keep his playful spirit safe! Raised in a serene country setting, Denali thrives in calm environments. While he’s not a fan of being crated, he’s perfectly content in smaller gated areas. And guess what? No inappropriate chewing here—he’s already a well-housebroken champ! 🚽 Denali isn’t just any dog; he’s a performer! 🎭 He loves to twirl around with a toy in his mouth and take long, invigorating runs while on a gentle leader. Treats? Oh, he’s all in! And let’s not forget about his impressive tail—be careful around toddlers, as this exuberant wagger might inadvertently become a bit overwhelming for little ones. When he’s not dazzling you with his moves, he loves to sploot out for a good stretch on the rug, taking over the entire couch like a true king. 🥳 If you can match his energy and love, Denali is ready to fill your life with joy! 💖 Don’t hesitate—if you can offer this special, handsome boy the forever home he deserves, apply through the Buddy App right away!
