Gentle Giants Board of Directors
Luna Osorio
Luna Osorio was born in New York, moved to South Florida at a young age and has been there ever since. Her love for animals of all shapes and sizes started in infancy. Luna has worked with exotic and domestic animals for almost 10 years now.
Her first contact with Great Danes was in the form of her beloved Dane Apollo. She never imagined that she would own a Dane in her life time, and now she wouldn't own any other breed. Luna is in the medical field and when she is not at work, delivering top notch patient care she is spending time with her Dane and all the other Danes she has helped raise.
Luna has worked tirelessly to educate the public, veterinarians, and new Great Dane owners on giant breed knowledge, and husbandry. Together with close friends Luna has found furever homes for multiple Danes ranging in ages from 8 weeks to 10 years old. To Luna every Dane is her baby and she won't stop until every Dane has a place to call home.
Tara Harrington
Hi! I am Tara. I have a huge passion for rescue. I have worked around animals my entire life and still work with animals as a dog trainer. I believe every Great Dane deserves a loving, sweet and kind home, a couch and a bed to sleep on and a heart to occupy. They are such a special breed. I currently have three Danes, Luna-10y/o, Captain-2 y/o and Lilo- 7 months old. They all are so amazing and provide so much love to my family, especially my 9month old little girl, who is also following in my footsteps as a Dane lover. Great Danes aren't just called great because of their size, but their personality and love they provide as well!
Ashley Cunill
Hi! I am Ashley! I am a Speech & Language Pathologist by day working with Special Needs Children, and by night I am a body builder, animal lover & activist, ocean obsessed, but most proudly a wife & fur-mom. I have 4 dogs: Rampage (Bull Terrier), Martini (Great Dane), Khali (Poodle-Chihuaha), & Kahlua (Dachshund).
My love for Danes started 6 years ago when our Martini came into our lives. She came from a backyard breeder & she opened my eyes to rescue! When my husband and I thought about adopting another Dane, we met Luna and GGGDR. It was then I realized I was beyond happy with my Zoo and decided to put my time into helping other Gentle Giants find amazing and loving homes that they deserve.
Life with a Dane is an incredible and special one and I love spreading awareness! But when I am not working or volunteering my time with rescue you can usually find me in the gym, out on the boat, or with the pups.
