What is the difference between UMGDR and a humane society?
The main difference is with UMGDR all dogs go to foster homes where at a humane society dogs are kenneled and do not live with humans. We also conduct aggression and behavioral evaluations in the foster home environment. This enables us to evaluate for triggers which are causing the aggressive behavior. Our rescue is a non-kill; meaning that we only euthanize for serious health or aggression issues. Humane societies will euthanize due to lack of room or length of time. UMGDR conducts home visit evaluations and references checks on every adoption applicant. We also match each forever home with the best possible Great Dane to ensure a good fit for the family and Dane.
