Introducing Lucy.........................
« on: July 28, 2005, 12:29:16 am »
As I've already posted a couple times, it seems I should introduce Lucy more formaly. Her best buddy Mutt is in some pics too, small paws-big attitude. Lucy loves him anyway, even more than bones.

Lucy looks like a great girl!  :)
 
Looks like this thread posted twice, but with different pictures. You should post the other pictures in this thread so people don't get confused and miss some cute pics

The car pic was taken by a proffesional photographer for the local paper, The Oregonian.

Lucy and I were driving 'cross town to my grandma's house (I'm not making this up), and some guy in a large SUV pulls up and starts laying on the horn.

When You drive a MG Midget with a Great Dane in the passenger seat people sorta remember you. They confront you in the grocery store, walking down the street, in restaurants... ............ So you become very aware of your driving, and very courteous of other drivers....... .......

The guy starts yelling and I'm trying to think who I could've cut off or run over and he finally rolls down his so I can understand him. He says he works for the Oregonian and could we pull into a nearby parking lot and drive back and forth while he takes Lucy's picture. The next day she was in the Metro section (Wed. Feb. 13th), my mom bought a bunch of those. I exchanged a few emails with him and he sent me a full size JPEG of the original in color.

When driving in a very small convertible with a very large dog pass other motorists with extreme caution, they will not be watching the road!

we get that a lot in the Jeep and the heads are hanging out of the window.  People think our girls are going to snack on them at a red light or jump out and attack.   
Lady did come out the window once but it was only cuz she saw me coming out of the store and wanted to know what was in the bag.  :)

I bet you did.  that's a lot of dogs.  :)  Lady and Grace will bop around in the back of the Cherokee and shift from side to side in a step or two and the Jeep tilts and jiggles. 
I wonder if insurance would cover tippage by dog.  ???

Lucy is BEAUTIFUL! just gorgeous. love the pic from the newspaper... those ears!  :D i have a Lucy but she'd prolly just about stand under yours. my big girl Rosie sits on the couch and chairs just like that, with her front paws on the floor and her rear on the seat. so funny looking. she'll stay like that for a long time too.

I wouldn't have had them cropped, but that's how she came. And she's very expressive with them. Some friends call that her "Sally Fields" or "Flying Nun" look.......... .....

That posture on the couch usually olny lasts til she's confident she won't get told to get down. Then she starts to sneek the rest of the way up. Pretty funny really, like when she tries to sneek up on the bed and thinks NOBodies gonna notice the little bitty Great Dane laying across them.
