Class is in session! Meet your professor Brandy Brilliant, a 2-year-old Great Dane who weighs 103 pounds (as of 3/22/26). Brandy was a stray on the streets of Tennessee until a nice family found her and cared for her until we had space at our rescue. This girl hopes you'll be her fur-ever family! Quick UPDATE: Brandy Brilliant is super calm. She has excellent leash manners, and knows how to sit when told. When she's not writing her dissertation on why adding a pet to your life will improve your wellbeing, you can find her relaxing next to you as you doom scroll on social media. This friendly girl has a very laidback personality and seems calm natured. On your most stressful days, it's better to take a page out of Brandy's book: inhale then exhale all the negative energy. She's working on becoming a yoga teacher so be sure to get all her advice now while it's still free! While staying with the family who first found her, Brandy lived inside their home and behaved very well. She enjoyed sleeping on the bed and snuggling on the couch with them. She hasn't been dog, cat or child tested yet since she was a stray, but with Brandy's chill nature, we hope she'll pass with flying colors! She's a professor / future yogi after all! Brandy will need patience as she continues to train when it comes to potty and commands. She does great on a leash and crate. She's very friendly to all and can't wait to teach you a thing or two! Adopt Brandy today! All dogs are up to date on vaccinations and spayed/neutered at the time of adoption. All dogs require professional training to become the best family member they can be.

Their information is correct to the best of our abilities and the information we have been given as of the day of posting. From time to time we receive new information/photos of a dog and we do recreate their listing, which means their old listing link will no longer be valid. If you are considering a dog but don't apply right away please make sure to search for the dog by name if the link you have no longer works. Please note, GDRNE does not guarantee the breed of any dog or puppy unless stated that we have run DNA. All breeds listed are educated estimates. Note that if the dog is listed as an "Out of town pet" there are NOT additional transport fees - it is included in our adoption fee Our dogs are rescued from various situations. It is most likely that both their parents were strays and even if not, mixes of some sort and that their grandparents were mixes as well. The dog may have some genetic material of an American Staffordshire Terrier (pit bull). The dogs are usually mixes of many breeds, making them a breed all their own - a True and adorable American MUTT. If you are interested in this dog, you must submit an application. Great Dog is not a shelter so there is no building you can visit. Our dogs live in private foster homes until adopted.
