    Default 3 Danes...1 loveseat...priceless

    Thought I would share this ecological display of the nature of Danes. It clearly seems that Great Danes have a strong aversion to the floor. Enough so that they are willing to pile on top of one another to keep away from it. The dog beds are just not quite enough for them LOL

    Glad you are joining us in the cult-like lifestyle of owning a Dane LOL

    Check out rescues...the one we volunteer for adopts out to NV. There are great dogs in there that come in on a regular basis. The black dane in this photo is actually a foster that is just staying with us until he finds a forever home.

    Adopt a Great Dane in Colorado - Rocky Mountain Great Dane Rescue

    BUT!!! I will say, that even though rescuing a dane is a courageous thing to do....nothing beats watching a Dane puppy grow up. Raising a Dane from puppyhood is just one thing that you have to do at least once in your lifetime. I can't put into words how they touch your life and bond to you. Guess you can relate because of the bond you have with Grissom

    I just had to go to the site you posted and read each photo and story. It's amazing how many Danes are in that rescue organization. I've never even considered a Dane and it made me want one! I will never understand how people can give up a member of the family like that but hopefully someone will resue those babies and take them into a new home soon.

    Its definitely something that I don't understand one bit. The foster that we have now, he's not on the site yet, is a total sweetie.

    He is skin and bones, only weighing 108 when he should weigh closer to 140. He does have food aggression, but I think that is because he is starving and doesn't want others to take his food away. Poor guy. He has been pretty sick since he's been with us...only two days now. We woke up in the middle of the night to "cannon butt" all over the kitchen and he has been vomiting all last night and today.

    Makes me sad and angry that someone would let this, or any, dog get to this condition. I really hope he finds a forever home soon. Any taker???

    I hear CorgiPaws is looking to get a Dane
    An ounce of nutrition is worth a pound of vet bills.

    Haha. You heard right.
    I also heard CorgiPaws is unemployed at the moment and can not get another dog right now.


    On the up side, pretty sure the Champster found his forever home, will know in a couple weeks... and it's within the family, too. My husband's dad. woooot.
