LOCATION: Coralville, IADOB: 09/19/2019Meet Everest, a resilient 6-year-old Dane x Pointer mix who has faced many challenges in his life. When he was taken in, he had an extremely low body score, worn-down teeth, and severe heartworms that prevent him from being neutered just yet. It’s hard to imagine what Everest endured in Texas, where the number of strays often exceeds the capacity of shelters. Whether he was on the streets for a long time or had neglectful owners, his past is a mystery.But let’s focus on the positive! Everest’s personality is unmatched. He’s a complete goofball who treats everyone like family. Dogs and kids are a big YES in Everest’s book. However, he’s a bit too interested in cats, so a cat-free home is best for him.Everest is adaptable and can be brought to work, boarding, or the groomers with zero issues. He’s just happy to be around loving humans. When a new person comes into the office, he pops his head out from behind the baby gate and gives you tail wags and puppy eyes until you pet him. While he needs some help with leash manners and basic obedience, he is a quick learner.Everest is looking for a loving home where he can continue to thrive and bring joy to his new family. If you’re ready to welcome a loyal and goofy companion into your life, Everest is the perfect match.All of our Great Danes are altered, if medically possible, fully vetted, micro-chipped, and on heartworm prevention or treatment prior to being adopted.
