OT- Since squirrel didn't work out...

Post by 2ndovc »

This morning I headed off to some public hunting land but forgot my hunting license :oops:

After getting home I grabbed one of the dogs, our 1 1/2 yr old Great Dane, and went for a hike at a
nearby nature preserve.

Went for a good 3-4 mile hike.

Got a couple photos of Lucy, our Great Dane.

Thanks Ted!

She's such a cool dog!

I thought she was going to be a real Princess but she's
tuning out to be a pretty a tough dog!
Last time we were up at our cabin in PA she wanted to take on a black bear all by her self.
Of course I talked her out of it. :D Plus that bear wanted no part of the dogs.

That looks like a real nice place to go walking. Having a cool dog like that probably doesn't hurt the experiance either. :D

Looking at your fine Dog, I can't find fault with the Bears decision! :)

Danes are just plain cool. The few I have known have been smart, loyal to a fault, as just a bit mischeveious. I prefer the larger breeds. They seem to have a self assurance that some (by no mearns all) smaller breeds don't. Growing up I had a poodle. Yea, I know what you're thinking, "one of those little, yappy ankle bitters". You'd be wrong. Big ole goof was a standard that went 125 lb. A goof until it counted, then he was all business, much to the chagrin of a couple of folks who tried to go where they shouldn't.

OOOOOH she is a beauty!!

I can't let my wife see those pictures, or I know what our next dog will be! I've almost got her convinced to let a Boston Terrier be our big dog. One the size of Lucy can help herself to whatever grub is on the kitchen counter with out any problem!

She's just about counter / table height so you have to be careful what you leave out. She found out the hard way not to mess with the stuff on the stove :shock:
She has a real taste for dish towels. She likes to snich them off the counter and shread them all over the house.
She's been the most difficult to train dog I've ever had. I think the problem is she's smarter than I am! :shock:

Hard to believe this little fur ball turned into such a moose :D
