About

Meet Henna

Welcome to Jurassic Park! The young female Velociraptor (aka Great Dane puppy) has adapted to her new enclosure (foster home) and has been accepted by the inhabitants of the island. She has been named Henna for her velvety soft brown fur. After years of studying this breed and the adults in this pack in particular, our researchers confidently estimate; by the size of this young specimen’s footprint, that she will be an average to above-average sized female at 100+ pounds. Editor’s note: Thankfully the teething stage passes quickly. HISTORY: Sadly, Petland stores are still selling Amish puppy mill dogs. In March a loving, well intentioned family purchased Henna from Petland. The family loved their very lovable pup, they fed her the best food, house and crate trained her, gave her toys and beds and snuggles. Unfortunately, the dad has asthma and Henna’s dander was just too much for his body to handle. PERSONALITY: Henna is a typical young Dane puppy. She is happy and playful, she gives the older, grumpy dogs their space, but she loves to play with the younger dogs. She is quiet in her crate, eats well, is fully house trained, learns quickly and loves to be with her people. FAVORITE ACTIVITIES: The absolutely best thing for Henna is lying in the shade outside. She also loves to play and snuggle with anyone who is willing. If there are other animals to play with, she will, but she also loves to play with her people. And she loves to play with both at once by including her human in her puppy playtime. Typically, by sitting on a lap while mouth wrestling or playing keep-away with a family dog. She is a pro at the Great Dane lean. MEDICAL ISSUES: None. Her hips were x-rayed on May 15, 2025; she shows no signs of hip dysplasia. WHAT WOULD BE THE BEST KIND OF HOME: Henna would thrive in a loving home that understands Great Danes. She has been through a lot for a young pup and will require time and patience to adjust to her new surroundings and when meeting new people. Henna is a loving dog that really wants to trust people, give her a little time and she’ll be your best friend forever.

Adopters will be required to enroll the puppy into training and provide proof to Mastiffs To Mutts Rescue within 6 months of adopting.  Certain large-breed dogs should not be sterilized before 12 - 18 months of age. If you adopt an intact puppy, you will sign an adoption contract agreeing to have the dog sterilized at your expense at the time your veterinarian recommends. Proof of sterilization must be provided to Mastiffs To Mutts Rescue as soon as the procedure is completed. If the puppy is not sterilized as required, Mastiffs To Mutts Rescue reserves the right to claim legal ownership of the dog.  Important notes before applying.

We will not adopt giant breed dogs to renters. Homes with children under 6 years of age will not be approved for adoption. Homes with children should have a fenced yard. Pets currently in the applicant's home must have a history of appropriate veterinary care. Homes with intact dogs will not be approved for adoption.  Proof of any of the following exceptions is required: The intact dog is a working member of a law enforcement, or search and rescue/recovery team. The intact dog is registered under the auspices of the American Kennel Club and is actively being shown. A veterinarian has determined the sterilization procedure would harm the intact dog.  We believe in Force Free Training Methods and do not approve of methods or devices using pain or force to control the dog, or to deter undesirable behavior.  Homes with highly varnished steps must have carpeting, securely fixed stair treads, or a non-skid surface. **We encourage you to remediate potential safety issues while your application is under review, prior to the home visit.
