About Nana

Meet Nana! After 6 long years of living life outdoors and raising her human children with unwavering loyalty, Nana is officially ready to trade the backyard for a soft couch! This 6-year-old St. Bernard is a true "Gentle Giant" who has spent her life being a devoted protector, and now it’s her turn to be pampered. Nana’s journey to us was a bit of a whirlwind; she was surrendered when her previous owner had to leave the country suddenly. Despite the big life change, she has been a total rockstar through her medical journey. She has officially completed her spay, a much-needed dental cleaning, and surgery to treat her entropion (eye issues), so she is feeling—and seeing—the world much better now! A quick heads-up for her future fans: To know Nana is to love her, but it also means loving her "extras." She comes with a pro-level shedding setting (consider her fur "Saint Bernard glitter" for your floors) and a waterworks department that produces plenty of happy drool. You might want to keep a "slobber towel" handy, but we promise her heart is even bigger than her puddles! She is looking for a family who will appreciate her quiet, loving nature. After years of being the "outdoor dog," she is ready to be a full-time indoor family member. She’s gentle with children and has a very sweet, mellow energy. While she’s already a whole lot of love at 96 lbs, she’s actually still a bit on the slim side. She’s looking to add a few more pounds to fill out her large frame and reach her healthiest potential, which just means there is even more of her to love in the future! If you are interested in adopting there is an application below: https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/PDAR/Dog Her adoption fee is $275. Most of our dogs are rescued from high-intake shelters in Texas or straight off the streets in South Texas where there are packs of stray dogs running loose. Your fee covers the significant costs of bringing them to safety. Your adoption fee covers: spay/neuter (if old enough), transport fees getting the dogs from Texas to our fosters homes here (that ALONE is $200-$230 per dog), core vaccines, heartworm test (If old enough), deworming, and microchip. We partner with VCA Animal Hospitals. With every adoption comes a complimentary First Exam at any participating VCA location within the first 14 days of adoption. Follow-up Care Coverage: VCA provides limited health guarantee coverage (up to $250) for specific minor illnesses (like kennel cough or ear infections) diagnosed during that initial 14-day window. We do not guarantee the breed of any of our dogs or how big they will be when they are fully grown. The breed listed is typically a guess based off of appearance or personality traits. We cannot guarantee that any dog is not mixed with pit. This is a standard part of adopting a dog from rescue. We are a non-profit rescue. Any access revenue made is used to care for animals with additional medical expenditures that would otherwise result in adoptable dogs having to be left behind and euthanized.
