::silly::Any one know a good Great Dane breeder? Or a Great Dane that needs a good home? (Preferably east of the Mississippi River.)
We're looking for a mate and/or play mate for our Lady. Lady is a little over 2 1/2 years old.
I'll check them all out, but would prefer a puppy.
Thanks!

My little girl's teacher breeds them. I don't think she has any puppies right now but you could check with her and see. She is in South Carolina.

::silly::Thanks Stacey ... they don't have any right now ... I'll have to keep looking.
I did run into one that seems very hopeful ... the mom was delivering the first pup in the litter while I was talking to them ... hope it will work out ... but, I'll keep looking till I'm sure we will be able to get this one.

My neighbor has 2 Danes one named "Moo-Moo" who I mistoke for a cow, because he's white with large black patches and Misty a darker blue Dane! Hope you find a real cutie!

::silly:: ::silly:: ::silly::We got to see our new Dane puppy Thursday! ::silly:: ::silly:: ::silly::
She is so cute ... only 4 days old, eyes are not open yet ... about the size of a 3 or 4 month old chin!
I cupped my hands together and she curled-up and fell asleep in my hands.
She is black with a small white crest on her chest ... she looks like Lady's twin.
I think we will name her Raven, not sure yet. ::think::
I didn't get pictures because her mom was not very happy we took one of her kits away from her.
She did not do anything or growl, but the look she gave us was "Put my baby down!"
The momma Dane, a brindle, weighs right at 225 pounds, but is a bit over weight.
The daddy, a black, weighs in at 195 and is big boned, but not fat ... he can stand on his hind feet, put his paws on Bill's shoulders and easily go eye to eye with Bill. (Bill is 6' 5" tall.)
Hopefully they will send me pictures soon.

::silly::I fixed a page for Lady (Our 2 1/2 year old Great Dane) ... www.luvnchins.com/Lady.html
The little female we are getting looks just like her!
And their mommas are both named Hannah, but, no relation to eachother.
Hoping to get pictures of the new little girl soon!

Is that little picture on the top Buddy? I read that he was like Moo-Moo, and that picture looks just like Moo! Haha! I want to see little Raven! Pictures!
-
Oppps! Is Lady's momma, Hannah, a Harlequin Dane? Is that her picture on the top right corner?
-
::silly:: www.luvnchins.com/Lady.html
Buddy is on the top left ... a black with white markings ... he is Lady's daddy.
Hannah is the one on the top right ... a Harlequin Dane ... she's Lady's momma. I sent a message to their owner asking for more pictures of the parents so that I can post better pictures of them.
The new little Dane puppy, Raven, was born on the 21st of this month. She looks like 'a miniature Lady'. But, her daddy is a black and her mom a brindle, also named Hannah.
We were trying to think of a good name for the new puppy. Raven + something else + McCraw. I told Bill we needed to name her "Stark Raven Mad McCraw" ... we both laughed, because we know we won't do that to her.
Lady is "Lady-in-Waiting McCraw".

::fruit:: Hey Jo Ann,
I am so excited for you, Bill and Lady!!!!!! A new baby in the family and little sister & playmate for Lady! Wow, I know you are just beside yourself! You guys probably count the days until your next visit with the baby. Can't wait to see pictures! I know you spoke of looking for another Dane so, were you looking for another black Dane? Is that your favorite color?
:) I am going to start another thread and post a few pics. We just adopted a puppy, she is 1/2 Great Dane and
1/2 Dalmation.

Oh sweet heavens above isn't that just the cutes. ::Lovehearts::
You must be so excited, congrats Jo Ann.
I love the Raven, it's my ebony males name.
Hmm a second name with Raven ::think:: Raven Crow Macraw, Sir. Raven, Ravenous Raven, Raven Magic........
Though I love the Stark Raven Mad
-
::silly::Thank-you all for the compliments ::nod::
... we get to go see her again next week ... :::grins::
Actually the Raven part of her name is to honor our first homo ebony female born at Luv 'N Chins. :blush2:
She (Raven the chinchilla) lives with Amanda and Darren at Fuzzy Chins :)
Bill said if we named her Stark Raven Mad McCraw ...
if she even accidentally hurt someone ... we would have no chance in court with that name! ::)
::think:: Duchesses Raven McCraw?
::think:: Her Majesty Raven McCraw?
::think:: Ravenous Raven McCraw?
Any more suggestions?

Hi Debbie,
Yep, we have her home with us. She turns 8 weeks old tomorrow. :) She weighs 19 pounds now. She only had one sibling, a male. The mom is an older Dane ... this was her last litter. She had trouble with the two previous litters, delivering all still-born pups. This breeding was an accident. The mom is very overweight and we were afraid she might roll over or step on the pups.
Lady and all the neighboring dogs (from a Chihuahua to a pit bull) are getting her well socialized and her weight is right on the mark for her age. We got a paper from her vet in SC stating she is in good health and OK to bring home. All of her shots taken care of and we have an appointment for her with our vet this comming week.
She sticks to Lady like glue. They eat, sleep and play together. I've never seen a momma dog teach her little one tolerance, but Lady is definitely teaching her tolerance. Lady picks at her till she makes Raven, the puppy, mad, then lays her head on top of Raven until she calms down. :D Lady has a cloth stuffed bunny and a bee ... she uses both of them and a few chosen old washcloths to teach Raven to play tug of war.
If Raven decides to nip me, all I have to do is say "Ouch" and Lady pulls her away with her paws, then fusses at Raven. She's also helping to train her to go outside and to use the piddle pads during the night.
Lady's never had a litter of her own, but I think she'll make a good mom if we ever let her have her own puppies. She's making a great surrogate mom.
