In the shelter’s words

Journey's UPDATE 9/12/26: Journey is a BIG Happy, Lovable and Goofy Great Dane. She is affectionate, playful and as it turns out GREAT with other dogs! (was not when arrived at MP) She is younger than initially felt to be, now best guess is 1 1/2 - 2 years Extra Large gal. She has gained all her needed weight and her skin sores have healed. She has made a FULL recovery. This special gal is happy and energetic loving life. How about it, ready for a new best friend? Journey wants to continue her Journey with you! See her full story since arrival to MP below. Journey's story didn't start out easy. Found as a stray in the South, she ended up in a high-kill shelter. She was heartbreakingly thin, covered in open wounds, and had clearly been through more than any dog should. Believed to be around 3 years old—or perhaps even younger—Journey desperately needed someone to give her a chance. That chance came when Molly's Place stepped in. They brought her to Pennsylvania and began the journey that inspired her name. With patience, expert care, and lots of love, Journey has made an incredible transformation. Today, Journey is the stunning 108# Great Dane she was always meant to be! The days of being skin and bones are behind her. After a month of healing, her wounds have completely recovered, she's filled out beautifully, and her joyful spirit shines brighter every day. Journey is a happy, HAPPY, energetic, and affectionate girl who is ready to find the loving family she's been waiting for. She gets along well with adults and no kids due to her enthusiastic Great Dane body and tail has a mind of its own! She is wanting all your love and attention, so she does have to be the only animal in the home as well. Her house-training status is currently unknown. Since found as a stray, a 6 ft fenced yard is required. Journey has overcome so much and is more than ready for the next chapter of her life. Could that chapter be with you? Applications are now being accepted, so don't wait too long. Journey is ready to leap into your heart—and maybe even your lap—and finally find the forever home she deserves.
