DANE HAVEN
Dog Paws Dane Rescue is pleased to announce that we are extending our support to families facing challenging times, such as when a family member is hospitalized or undergoing a mental health crisis. We understand that during these difficult moments, providing the necessary care for your beloved Great Dane can become overwhelming.
To ensure that your Great Dane companion(s) receive the love and attention they deserve, we are opening our doors to accept Great Danes in need of temporary respite Care in our Dane Haven program. The length of the Dane Haven stay will be customized to each situation for the families in need. Dane Haven is in honor of 3 beautiful Danes Freyja, Valkarie, and Mist who were long-term Dane Haven residents at Dog Paws Boarding Resort (long before DPDR creation) for approx. 60 days when their owner was unexpectedly hospitalized. These "Girls" lived their best lives at Dog Paws Boarding Resort and were spoiled and well loved during their stay giving comfort to their owner. |

At DPDR the Dane Haven runs completely on Donations so that families who are needing respite care for their Dane need not have to worry about an additional thing.

We welcome donations of any amount, as they will directly contribute to the care and well-being of the Great Danes that may come in under the Dane Haven program. Your contribution will go towards providing food, medical care, enrichment, and a safe environment for these wonderful animals until they can reunite with their loving families.
