Respect. It can mean so much too so many.
And itâs such a simple thing.
When we think of rescued Danes, we think of the respect they deserve. They are adaptable, flexible, most of the time wonderful. They fit right in to the foster homes and their forever homes, as if they had been there all their lives. And considering circumstances some of them come from, youâd think respect would be an automatic reaction.
But that doesnât always happen. Some people who are used to the standard of the Dane say it should be about the colors they come in, or the shape they are in, or several other issues. Many of us have been at the receiving end of this problem and it hurts. We love these dogs â the ones that have come into rescue and the ones we have adopted. Itâs important to remember that we didnât breed these dogs; we didnât have anything to do with selling these dogs. We didnât impulsively and ignorantly purchase these dogs. We just brought these dogs into our rescue program, trying to give them a better life than they had before we knew them. Thatâs all. No conspiracy.
The fact that some of them are blind or deaf, bear scars, have blue eyes, have brindle or fawn patches, severely malnourished, Heartworm positive or need more than the average amount of medical care, it doesnât matter to us. We donât have a standard for rescued Danes â most breed rescues donât. Although we do see many beautiful show marked Danes as well. All weâre trying to do is help the situation of homeless/unwanted/neglected Danes.
So, in short, we make the decisions we do base on the facts we have at hand and, also, with whatâs in our hearts. If you agree thatâs wonderful. If you donât, please respect our choices, but most of all, please respect the dogs.
