Are you ready for endless laughs, boundless energy, and a furry best friend who will keep you on your toes? Say hello to Drakeo, an almost 2-year-old Merle Great Dane bursting with energy, personality, and a whole lot of love to give!
Drakeo is a high-energy, fun-loving guy who thrives on playtime and companionship. Whether he’s zooming around the yard, playing tug-of-war, or engaging in a game of fetch, this boy is always up for an adventure. He’s talkative, expressive, and full of personality, making every day with him entertaining! While he’s a total goofball with his people, Drakeo can be a bit shy at first and needs time to warm up. He’s still building confidence and learning that the world isn’t so scary. Loud noises, vacuums, and unexpected movements can make him nervous, so he needs a patient and understanding foster home to help him feel secure.
🎾 Drakeo’s Favorite Things: ✔️ Playtime Galore: Rope toys, fetch, tug-of-war, and even a game of hide-and-seek—he’s always ready for fun! ✔️ Blankets: He loves to cuddle up with his favorite cozy blankets. ✔️ Canine Friends: He’s lived with other dogs before and enjoys playful interactions with those his size. ✔️ Freedom to Zoom: A big, fenced backyard where he can run and burn off energy is a must!
🏡 Drakeo’s Dream Foster Home: 🐶 A home where his humans are around often—he loves company! 🌳 A secure, fenced yard to run and play to his heart’s content. 🐾 A playful, well-matched dog buddy to keep him entertained. 🏋️ An active person or family who can meet his exercise needs (daily playtime & regular walks). 💖 A patient, loving foster who will continue his training & confidence building.
🦴 What Drakeo Needs Help With: ✅ Continued Training: He knows his basic commands (sit, stay, come, lie down), but needs help with leash manners and socialization. ✅ Confidence Building: He can be reactive on walks and barks at other dogs and people. With the right training and reassurance, he’ll learn to feel more secure. ✅ Understanding His Boundaries: Drakeo plays rough and prefers people to respect his space—he’s not a fan of faces too close to his!
💙 Why Foster Drakeo? Drakeo is a loyal, silly, and loving pup who just needs the right environment to thrive. With a little patience, training, and lots of love, he’ll make a wonderful companion. If you’re looking for a dog that will keep you active, make you laugh, and reward you with unconditional love, Drakeo is your guy!
