• “Hi! I'm Gertie, and I can be anxious but also loving. I don't love meeting new men; they make me nervous because ladies and kiddos are the best. If you want to say hi, just let me decide first. I love to run zoomies and figure-eights in our smaller yard. Mom and Dad want me to run around in other spaces too, so I'm excited to give your space a Great Dane-sized zoomie test.“

In my spare time, I love to go anywhere I can sniff -- it’s my favorite thing to do, right next to eating treatos! I also like meeting new people, especially when they pet me. I love kids, grownups, other dogs - you name it. I’m just a sociable girl. Let’s be friends!“
