Thought I would join in on this thread having recently taken on a Dane puppy .

Dillian (aka Dill the Dog/Dane) is just 17 weeks old & a real handful, no trouble just full of life - how the heck do you contain the boystrousness of a Dane puppy .

Dill was a gift to me by his breeders (my frineds) as he was born blind, so a special boy that needed extra understanding! As I had recently lost my 17yr old Parson Russel & she was blind, my frineds asked if I would take on Dill. I looked into the care & special requirements a Dane needed before acceoting their kind offer.

He has been with me now since early december & its as if he has always been here; I could not ask for a more loving companion & one that learns quite quickly = although NO still needs a little work .

Anyway, as people always want photos, here are a couple of him taken recently = the one shows him with one of my baby African Grey parrots = he has to get used to parrots as I breed them

Default our dane

Our dane came from G.D.A boston lincs , he was 18months old & stone deaf, Sherman is a blue merle 12 stone . We have had him 5yrs . Its always worth contacting rescues as they sometimes have puppies needing homes. Sorry cant do pics . The slobber is awsome but the smells he produces are eye watering!!

I'd love a Dane but my Border Collie X Lurcher has got more then enough legs for me to handle lol.

I wish my dog would pose like that, He does sometimes, I'll have to dig out the pictures and post them.

it takes MANY shots to get 1 good photo of Dill the dog as he just wont sit still, but at only 19 weeks (last Sunday) he is full of Puppppy puppppy Powerrrrrrrrr

He had his first official social engagement last night - he was invited out to celebrate Chinese New Year & they even gave him his own fortune cookies
