So my wife and I have been wanting to get a new dog- especially since we just moved to a new place that actually allows us to have pets. So we finally got one this last Wednesday...
[Attempt 1] ...Hopefully that pic shows up. Nope? Okay, time for upload.... [Attempt 2] ![]() There we go. So anyway, his name is Tender, and he's a Merle Great Dane. At 9 weeks old he should be bigger than he is, but this guy was born in a litter of seventeen pups. We found him on the 'net and drove 3 hours one way to get him. He was pretty scared and skittish the first couple of days, but by now he's really warmed up to us and is getting excited about his new surroundings. But if you've ever heard anything about Great Danes, you may have heard that they're pretty much lazy dogs. So far, this is true. He plays for maybe 1/2 hr to 1 hr and then it's nap time for like 3 hours, haha. Little guy has wicked dreams though. The other day he was kicking and twitching in his sleep so bad he fell off the couch! And so far, the house training is coming along well. The only accidents he's had inside are because the wife and I are still trying to recognize his "signs" that he needs to go outside. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) But we did take him to the vet today just to get him checked out- vet says he couldn't be a healthier puppy, which is good news for us. We did a lot of research prior to buying him and learned that nutrition for large dogs in general is key to their being healthy. Not that it's not important for other breeds, but large dogs especially need a good diet for a healthy life. Anyway, just wanted to introduce y'all to him. Right now he's drinking out of my water glass......... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) |

I would really love to get another dog. I had the best jack russel in the world but my life was in such turmoil it wasn't gonna be a good situation for the dog. I am friends with an older couple with a very nice house and large windows and back yard so he spend his days there looking for birds and chasing squirrels.
I think by next year my life should be more stable and I can get another dog. Mine was the coolest though. We did everything together and he loved showing off for people. He was hired several times for photo and video shoots including a commercial for Pearle Vision. He would sit there all day if he was getting attention for it so they found him very easy to work with.
