Male Dog, Great Dane
Great Dane / Mixed
Description:
Meet Limp Bizkit or as we call him Bizkit. He is a silly Dane mix that loves humans. Bizkit is house trained and sleeps in his crate all night. He will let you know when he needs to go out in the morning by making a soft whine sound that sounds like a cartoon character. Bizkit has been fostered with a dog and kittens. Bizkit is very treat motivated. He knows sit and he is still working on manners and leads training. Bizkit is healing from a leg injury so we need to work more on leash training. He plays great with toys and doesn'tdestroy them, he lives to chew on stuffed toys and also chew on ubber chuck it balls that disappear in his mouth. Bizkit is a large puppy that doesn't quite understand his size. He loves to snuggle and get plenty of pets from his humans.Limp Bizkit was rescued from a shelter in New Mexico. He was found roaming the streets severely emaciated with a critical injury to one of his front legs. After coming to our rescue and being examined at the vet, it is believed he may have been hit by a car as he has a healed injury on his rear leg and is still being treated for the injury on his front leg. The rescue vet does believe he is about 5 months younger than aged by the original shelter veterinarian. Meet and greets are by appointment only.

Partial adoption fees will not hold a dog. Dogs adopted with our rescue come with FREE training from #GoodPup to help you build strong bonds from the start! If upon meeting the dog of your choosing at your scheduled pickup time you find that you aren't a good match, your deposit will be fully refunded. Adoption fees include vaccines up until time of adoption, microchip, spay/neuter and 1st 30 days of free Pet insurance. We are not affiliated with Pet First pet insurance. (you have to sign up for the insurance or it will not go into effect). Adoption fees help cover the medical care of the animals while he or she waits for a new home, as well as food and transportation costs. These fees help to provide care for the other animals in the shelter or rescue group who may have medical bills that are much higher than any possible adoption fee. The money also acts as a donation to help support the organization as a whole, allowing the group to continue its efforts to rescue and rehome pets. The dogs in our care are fostered in Colorado, Texas, and New Mexico. While all dogs are picked up during our scheduled times, sometimes transport dates change due to unforeseen circumstances. More questions? Read our FAQs here: https://4p4l.org/faqs/ Breed labels are a "best guess" by a shelter veterinarian and cannot be guaranteed. A new study has concluded that (in layman's terms), breed assumption is NOT indicative of behavior in mixed breed dogs. Therefore, if a dog looks presumably to be a German Shepherd breed, one cannot assume the dog will have a high prey drive. From the study: "Although many physical traits were associated with breeds, behavior was much more variable among individual dogs. In general, physical trait heritability was a greater predictor of breed but was not necessarily a predictor of breed ancestry in mutts. Among behavioral traits, biddability—how well dogs respond to human direction—was the most heritable by breed but varied significantly among individual dogs. Thus, dog breed is generally a poor predictor of individual behavior and should not be used to inform decisions relating to selection of a pet dog" - https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.abk0639
