  • Just introducing myself and my boy:

    Hi everyone,
    My name is Patrick, and I'm the proud best friend to a 4-5 year old rescue named BlackJack ('Jack'). He's a mostly black boy with a white chest and a bit of white on the tips of his feet and the 'paintbrush' tail - not quite mantle. I rescued him from Arkansas Great Dane Rescue (who are fantastic) this past July. He's made quite a turnaround since then, and is quite honestly the most well behaved dog I've ever seen. He stays off my furniture and bed, never barks unless alarmed for good reason, active when we're playing, a lazy bones when we're not, great with kids and my girlfriend's 4 LB yorkie etc. I could go on and on (I'm sure I'm a little bit biased, if you couldn't tell...). Jack loves car rides, and he pretty much accompanies me everywhere but school.
    We're currently living in Norman, OK while I finish up my last year of law school. Then it's back to Tulsa.
    Thanks for reading - glad to be a part of this message board!
    -Patrick

                    Welcome Patrick! Jack is a handsome boy! I applaud you for rescuing and your rescue will probably be the first one I contact when it's time for me to adopt a dane!

                        Hello fellow Okie and welcome aboard! Just so you know we have all kinds of Dane events in the state of Oklahoma and hope you can come with Jack. You can find out about these events by joining our mailing group via my website. Lots of fun and lots of Danes!

                        I sure hoped you visited our Heartland Great Dane Rescue website www.heartlandgdr.org prior to adopting out-of-state. We sure could use some wonderful homes for our Okie Danes. Some have been in foster homes for quite some time now.


                        Okie regards...

                          Yes, I'd love to be a part of any Dane events around OK - Jack's very much a social butterfly. I chose to rescue through Arkansas GDR through a friend's referral.
                          Thanks for the warm welcome!
