One of my neighbours loves and adopts animals like I would do if I were home more! Ken called me to the back door to see what my neighbour, Pam, had brought to show me. I was thinking "another cat" for her cattery, so I was not prepared to see this! What a magnificent dog! In my teens, we had two Great Danes, so I adore their temperament and think they are stunningly beautiful! They stayed for well over an hour, and then more neighbours came by with the children to see the neighbourhood newcomer! Amazingly she's a rescue dog whose former owner loved her, but soon realized they couldn't afford to feed her! In picking such a large dog, that should have been a consideration! Their loss is my friend's gain, and "Jersey" now joins the family that owns my former cat, Dinah...who still drops in to visit! Win win!
So regal. We have adopted an adult golden retriever and even she is costing a fortune!food has really gone up in price. Iām glad they found him a good home.
Hey I have one small cat and she is expensive to feed. People need to visit the grocery stores and look at the prices. People only see the fun side of pets not the work that goes with it.
In a previous position I had a co-worker who worked from home. Her "office mate" was a wonderful Great Dane. He was very protective of my co-worker and would rest on his bed in her office while she worked. He would let me pet him every time I was there, and he would lean right up against me- kind of like a big dog hug!
@kchuk Oh, Elyse! I understand the feeling of everything you've written! They really are gentle giants and very trustworthy! My neighbor's littlest girl is under 3 and sitting, Jersey was teller than her! She was cautions, but soon she was cuddling, along with her older brother and sister! I haven't even had time yet to look at all the photos I took!
An absolute beauty! I fell in love with Danes when I first went to dog training (over 40 yrs ago now). The Great Dane pup there was too big to sit on her owner's lap so she had to reverse, and gently squat her rear on her owner's knees - isn't it funny which memories stick?
What a lovely dog, Louise! The children could take "pony" rides on gentle Jersey. With the amount I spend for Sophie's special food and supplements and on Katniss, I don't think I could afford to feed this dog in the same way! My son's German Shepherd is now 95 pounds. Danes are wonderful dogs.
