Meet maevis

Looking for a majestic, outrageously elegant house horse?Meet Maevis, a 1.5-year-old Great Dane with legs for days, a love for humans of all sizes, and a personality as big as she is.

Maevis is smart, striking, and has had some professional training. She adores people, does well with other large dogs, and has even reportedly lived with a cat. That said, Maevis has a very firm opinion about small dogs (especially under 20 pounds) and it’s a hard no. Her veterinarian has shared that this sensitivity can be common in her breed, and it’s something we take very seriously.

Maevis is currently working on muzzle training, and she’s doing great. She approaches training with enthusiasm, a touch of dramatic flair, and impressive cooperation for a dog her size. We’re focused on giving her the structure, tools, and guidance she needs to succeed long-term, and she’s already making meaningful progress.

Because Maevis’s only known challenge is her reaction to small dogs, we are being very intentional about her placement. Behavior modification for this type of issue can be specialized and costly and is beyond what we’re able to fully provide in a shelter environment. We are, however, connected with a trusted, qualified trainer who can support her future family. Our goal is to set Maevis and her adopters up for success from day one through management, training, and realistic expectations.

Maevis is looking for a home that can offer:



No small dogs (non-negotiable)


An experienced, confident handler who understands large dogs and big feelings


A safe, controlled environment where surprise encounters with small dogs are not part of daily life


A home setting (not an apartment) with a 6 foot privacy fence that allows for responsible management



After a few past encounters that made her preferences very clear, Maevis has firmly decided she’s a big-dog-only kind of gal.

Despite her strong opinions, Maevis charms us daily with her goofiness, intelligence, and couch-sized hugging abilities. She’s a larger-than-life companion who will thrive with someone ready to manage her world thoughtfully and appreciate her for the confident, expressive dog she is.

If you love a dog with presence, personality, and clear boundaries (and you’re committed to helping her navigate those) Maevis might be your perfect match. Come meet her and see all the amazing things she’s learning while in our care as she waits for her forever home! 

If you’re ready to welcome Maevis into your family, please fill out an adoption application at townandcountryanimalrescue.org

The adoption fee is $350 + tax and covers age-appropriate vaccines, a microchip, and a spay/neuter.Applications are typically worked in time stamp order based on date/time of submission. If you have other dogs in your home, they must all meet the potential adoptee. It may save you a trip to bring them with you when you visit, if you are certain you want to adopt a new family member.***** If you are interested in any of our animals, please fill out an application on our website www.townandcountryanimalrescue.orgYour application will be reviewed, and you will be contacted to set up a time to meet at the shelter or the foster home. The introduction between you and the pet will be supervised by one of the dog counselors or the foster. If all goes well, you can adopt during the same visit.Please be sure to follow us on Facebook to learn more about Town and Country Animal Rescue and our mission.
