BALTO
I’m a majestic, extra large Great Dane looking for a family. I’m loving, gentle and I love to snuggle. I weigh 153 pounds and I am extremely tall. My favorite toy is my red honking pig and my second favorite toy is my blue honking pig. I love all people and I get along with other dogs, I’m not sure about cats. I do the Dane lean that littles can’t seem to handle. Weird I know. It’s not my fault I weigh 4 times they do. I’m just trying to show my love.
If you know someone looking for an extremely handsome, extremely big, extremely awesome lap puppy and extremely loving Great Dane please share my information. Tell them Balto sent you the information.

KC ODIN
Giant Paw Prints had two resident dogs since we purchased the “Dog House” in October 2017. The resident dog has a job - test other dogs and protect dog beds in the meet & greet room ;)
KC was our first resident dog. KC came in with a lot of issues and losing his sight. He became our test dog with our intakes that were brought in. KC was always calm and knew how to read the body language of other dogs and he would help the intakes adjust and learn to be a dog. He played with the dogs and helped them socialize with our volunteers. KC collapsed during morning shift and passed away the evening of 06/02/24 from a tumor on his heart that was bleeding internally
Odin came to use from a shelter that helped him gain weight Odin was found emaciated, could not stand or walk. When he came to us we would have to help him up and get him moving, he had no muscle tone in his back legs. Odin could not be active for more than 15 minutes before he would have to lay down and take a nap. We worked with Odin to build muscle, socialize him with people and other dogs. Odin didn’t like being touched around his neck and would bite if upset. Odin was diagnosed with HOD’s disease. Odin became the new house dog - with his flopped over ear, crazy gait, silly face and loving heart. He was going through training and doing very well, he liked the “touch” part of training and the liver treats. We wanted Odin to go to schools with us to talk about rescue and shelter dogs. On August 24, 2024 Odin became lethargic and was rushed to the ER. Odin had a hole/disconnect of his stomach to his intestines that they found during emergency surgery. We let Odin go August 25, 2024
Both dogs were assets to our rescue. They had a job and they both excelled at them. RIP sweet boys Until we meet again
