Helpful Groups & Dogs in Need / Great Dane Needs Home
« on: October 15, 2006, 06:28:57 am »
Hello everyone. I was wondering if anyone in or near VA wanted a female Brindle Great Dane. Her name is Nonnie she about a year and a half. She had not been fixed. She's housebroken, crate trained, and walks okay on a leash with a pinch collar. She will scale a regular fence. She needs to be the only dog or with a SUBMISSIVE male. She has no house manners. She likes to ride in a car but won't sit. I dont know how she is with cats or other animals. I've been told that she is good with kids but I dont have any so I couldn't say for sure. I've only had her for about two months and her and Toester do not get a long at all.

hello everyone I know I haven't been on in a while but I really need you help. A friend of mine just gave me a dane today like 30 min ago. She's not as submissive as I had hoped she'd be and so far the only dog I have introduced her to is Tank ( my very submissive 5 month old puppy Dane) They are find kinda. Neither had growled Tank has laid down at her feet with his tale tucked, she is standing with ears up kinda standing over him but still with her tale tucked. Not real agressive but I dont know how Toester and Hershie will react. Whats the best way to get everyone together. Toester is my dom female Dane shes 2, Hershie's the dom male he's 4 but still under Toester, Tank is male 5 month old Dane, Precious is 2 she's a Pom and the new comer is Nonnie she's a 14 month old Dane. HELP

Toester is 35" at the shoulders at a little over 2 years old and about 126. Onyx is the smaller of my three but is the thickest and shes 30" and 115 at not quite a year old Thor is tall and skinny he's 33" and last time I had him weighted he was 110 and very skinny not that I've been fedding him puppy he's picked up a lot of weight and I think around 120 to 130.

General Board for Big Dogs with Big Paws / just a couple of questions
« on: January 10, 2006, 04:39:53 pm »
Hello everyone I know I haven't been on in awhile bit I been busy with school. I changed shifts so now I work 11 to 7 instead of 3 to 11 which works out better with my school schedule which is from 8 to 3:30. I guess with all my working and school I failed to notice that Miss Toester had come into heat. So now on top of school and work I have a pregnant Great Dane!! I just built her whelping box last night and she's due Like any day now, I don't know the day cause I didn't know she was pregnant until I saw her nipples getting huge but the way she looks now I'm guessing any day now. Anyway enough about that. I have a question. well two actually.
My first question is....What makes a quality dog food? I know you might have had this conversation in the past but I don't have time to go though all the post and find it I have a lot of homework today. Last week I was broke!! I only had $30 and it was like two days until payday. I had no gas and no dog food. I had a tough decision to make. The dog food I usually buy is $40 a bag and I needed gas to get back and forth to school, I asked around and no one had any money either being that close to payday. I went to the store and I walked around and looked at all the different dog foods and looked at all the labels and the question came to me. I've heard people say that the meat in and the amount of corn in the food made it "quality"  some say its the fillers and the vitamins some think its just the price. So what makes a "quality dogs food? I always thought that it was the ingredients list and it meat was the first one it was good cause it didn't have all the fillers and corn. If that's the case the Science Diet is not good cause if you look at the label then the first one listed is corn. I know a lot of people who feed their dogs this food and some vets recommend it. I also saw Wal-mart brand dog food for $8 a bag and the number one ingredients was Lamb or Chicken which ever the flavor was. So does that make Wal-mart brand a "quality" dog food? I also saw pro plan for $18 and it had yogurt and the number one ingredient was meat and it had an lamb and rice formula which I thought was good for dogs.  To make a long story short I ended up getting the pro plan and a little over $10 in gas. If that's a good "quality" dog food then why am I paying over double that for Nurto? Help!!!
        My next question is a lot shorter, for those of you who breed what do you put in the bottom of you whelping box? I'd like something that would keep the smell down since Toester and the pups will be in my bedroom. I was thinking about cedar shavings but that can get messy, someone told me that a blanket might suffocate the pups and someone else said lambs wool blanket but I can't find one.

Great Dane Pictures / Re: I'm back....well for awhile

Bonita says that she thinks that kahula had the pups and then ate them. Bonita had a stroke and her son it still paralyzed so no one was there for a week and when she came home she said that Kahula was all of a sudden skinny. I told her that if she had had pups she would have known. I think it was a false pregnancy. I still haven't seen her yet she won't tell me where they moved to every time I ask she changes the subject.

Hello everyone!! I sorry I haven't been on in awhile but things have been busy. I just started school in Oct. So now I am a full time student with a ful time job. All my free time is put toward the dogs and my homework so I haven't been on the computer in a while. But in 13 more months I'll be a LPN and then i'll do the LPN to RN online at my own pace. There's so much new stuff here I'll never be able to read it all, but welcome to all you new people and hello to all you old ones. I went to a friends house today and she had Toesters mom there (what a small world) she was there to be breed to her male. She was so pretty. Onyx and Thor are so big now Thor's 130 and 10 months and Onyx is 110.5 at 9 months. Thor has learned to open the fence so now it stays locked and Onyx is a jumper but only when she's left out for too long. Well gotta go now got lots og homework to do but I'll be back on later.

Isn't Toesters mommie beautiful
