Hello, I'm Larry

I'm a 3-year-old Great Dane from Burford rehoming centre and I'm looking for my forever home. Please read my profile below to find out more.

About me

Meet Larry a very special chap who is need of a special new home.

In finding Larry's new home we are looking for new owners who have had Great Danes before that understand the breed's needs and traits.

He is an affectionate and gentle chap once he knows you but can find meeting new people worrying so would benefit from a quiet home. He forms strong bonds with his humans and typifies the classic Great Dane personality: calm, loving and happiest when close to his family.

Larry is good on the lead and enjoys his walks, taking time to sniff and explore. He also really loves playing with toys in our paddocks and is often seen galloping around with a ragga in his mouth play bowing at his favourite people.

He is social with other dogs and has lived with other small dogs before so he could potentially share his home with a well-matched dog following introductions at the centre.

Larry has found the transition to living in kennels more stressful than most and so we want his new home to be as quiet and stable as possible. For this reason we think a home with teenage or no children would be best for him and aid the transition back into a new home.

He’s ready to find a loving home that understands the needs of a big, sensitive boy and can offer him stability, companionship and lots of sofa space!
