Recent Pet News, Tips & Info...Choose the Airedale Terrier as a Pet and Say Good-Bye to Boredom“The King of the Terriers”, the Airedale terrier comes from Airedale, Yorkshire, England, and it is the largest of the terrier breeds. It comes from crossing the old and vanished breeds of the Black-and-Tan terrier with the Otterhound. It is also said that they have the Manchester terrier in their blood. They were initially bred to hunt otters (reason for which they are also called the Waterside Terrier) and hares in the valley of the Aire river - that also gave its name to the breed - and to herd sheep, being both shepherd and hunting dogs. The Africanis Dog From the South African Plains to Your Home Dog breeders do not officially recognize Africanis as a breed. Also known as the Bantu Dog or the Zulu Dog, the breed developed in South Africa and it is basically comprised of similar breeds that are originally from the area. However, dog historians have acquired enough evidence to conclude that, originally, the breed lived in the East and Middle East and migrated to Africa in ancient times. The Zulu Dog is a perfect companion for people, whether we are talking about more traditional activities like hunting or herding, or simply about the pleasure of having a dog companion. The Afghan Hound Elegance and Distinction If the old saying that claims that dogs and masters resemble each other is true, then the Afghan hound is surely the dog most likely to be seen in the presence of an aristocrat. Its silky, thick coat will match any of its masters' designer dresses or elegant suits. Distinguished in looks and personality, this is one of the breeds that you can't stop looking at when seeing on the street and that you are very likely to see at a dog show. The Aidi Dog A Perfect Watchdog Of Moroccan origin, the Aidi dog evolved as a watchdog for herds of goats and sheep. For this reason, it has heightened senses that are very good at detecting threats and its instincts are perfectly in tune, resulting in a speedy and efficient reaction. These characteristics are also perfect for a hunting dog - so it is also very good at filling that role. Very courageous, this breed has evolved in the Morrocan mountains, protecting itself and its owners from many vicious predators like wildcats, but also from strangers. Also called the Berber (it was commonly used by Berber tribes), this breed is very similar to Pariah dogs - to which it is believed to be related. |

Animal Shelter details for Central Florida Great Dane Rescue, Inc.
Please visit Central Florida Great Dane Rescue, Inc. and adopt a homeless pet You have reached the shelter page for Central Florida Great Dane Rescue, Inc.. Central Florida Great Dane Rescue, Inc. is located in winter park, Florida. If you have information to add or update for Central Florida Great Dane Rescue, Inc., please click here and let us know.
We work with other reputable Great Dane Rescue groups in Florida to help adopt Great Danes into loving, approved homes. We place special emphasis on education and spay/neuter. In the past 7 years, we've taken more than 500 Danes into our rescue. Most of these Danes were under 2 years of age, and were given up because their owners couldn't deal with them. Danes are couch potatoes in later years, but can be horrible handfuls as pups. Please do serious research before getting a Great Dane. If you do buy a pup, make sure to only deal with a reputable breeder. To help ensure that each Dane is matched with the most suitable home, all Danes live with one of our rescue volunteers for a minimum of two weeks for evaluation. We prefer to only adopt Danes within Florida, but will consider each request on a case by case basis. For more information, see our page on Out of area/state adoptions. We do not have a shelter; all of our Danes reside in our home or in one of our many foster homes throughout the state. Appointments can be made to visit with the Danes (at their foster home) upon approval of a completed application. All of our Danes are Vet checked, current on vaccinations, de-wormed, on heartworm preventive and spayed or neutered prior to being placed. We do our best to make sure that the Danes are in good health prior to going to their new home. But, due to the limited funds in rescue, we do not do any health testing for genetic defects, such as x-raying for hip displaysia, unless we suspect there is a problem. Due to the volume of Danes that we take into our rescue, we are always in need of volunteers, foster homes and donations of supplies. Monetary donations are also greatly appreciated.
