Adopt Maxwell (21-124-02) a White Great Dane / Mixed dog in Inver Grove Heights

Location:

Inver Grove Heights, MN

Description:

Introducing Maxwell!Bio:* Active 1 year old * White Neutered Male* Located in Presque Isle, WIBasic Info:* Maxwell has significant vision impairment--it is estimated that he can only see about 5% out of one eye, however foster mom questions this estimate as he does see "something" and gets along really well once he understands the layout of the environment. He might see blobs/lightness/darkness of objects/etc. He can see motion & will react according to what the motion is doing. He may see certain areas of light/dark etc that help him to move around.* While not completely deaf, he has a significant hearing impairment. Maxwell appears to hear only certain high pitch noises out of one ear (things like loud voices/dogs barking/vehicles revving up)* Really loves on his people and looks to them for guidance and reassurance due to his hearing and vision losses* Excellent car rider* No known experience with catsLikes:* Playing with toys; balls/rope balls/ deer antlers etc.* Walks; he is a very curious pup who loves to explore everything he can get his nose and paws on* Loves doing zoomies in the backyardDislikes:* Being left alone. If he feels that he is all alone he will bark constantly. Someone who is home more often than not would best suit his current needs. At this time a standard 8-hour work day is too long for him to be left alone* People in his face and not respecting his boundaries* Objects/people/other dogs that move quickly. With his limited sight and hearing these fast movements can make him a bit nervous and unsure of his surroundingsHard Requirements For Forever Home:* Due to his hearing and vision impairments, he requires a physically fenced in yard* Requires a home with another submissive, active canine who can help him burn off puppy energy and who can mentor him in these crucial months of training and "growing" up!* If there are children, his foster mom asks they be at least 12 years or older, with calm demeanors* A calm and consistent home life is vital to his success! A busy and chaotic environment would be too stressful for himSpecial Note From Foster Mom:* This fella is a pretty special puppy! He has been bounced around a lot unfortunately and really needs an adopter who will go above and beyond as he is most deserving. Someone with deaf/vision impairment experience would be a blessing for him. Maxwell is a one in a million Dane. I just know there is a special home out there for him that will supersede all our expectations.Interested in Maxwell?
