Yeah we are right over the bridge well after the bay bridge and then the kent island bridge anyway. The name of the town he lives in is Grasonville. I am going to try to find a job so I don't have to go thru bridge traffic everyday it is not so bad in every other season but summer but still don't want to deal with it. And no I did not no there was a dog beach in annapolis. Do you know if sandy beach on the other side of the bridge can have dogs too? I always wondered. I also heard there is a bunch of people that get together in Annapolis on Friday nights with there dogs not sure of the specifics though we have never gone.

Its mostly farms around his house but we the bay is 15-20min walk away and woods are about the same and we are about 1 1/2 hour drive away from ocean city. There is a trail that will take you past farm lands thru woods all the way down to a small beach near the bridge we have never walked it cause it would probably be a all day thing but we will in the fall.

Pierre lives on the eastern shore in Maryland out in the country sort of lots of space his back yard is huge and as soon as Spike can learn to not get in the inground pool he can go out by himself for now I have to keep him on the leash just to keep him out of it and it is not even open this year the pump broke so the special pooltarp is covering it that supposed to be able to hold like a car or something and Spike seems to think it is a game to walk in the middle and sink a couple feet and watch me panic and there is a actually a dane kennel not far from his house when I take Spike for walks I always walk past the house the dogs are beautifull and I have been hoping that one day the people would be outside so I could meet them but so far no luck but it is nice to see what Spike will look like. Part of their fence is 6' and they hang over it is at least 3 or 4 of them and they are massive.

I put in my 2 week notice today and in 2 weeks we are going to live with Pierre. I cannot wait. I told Spike and he already has his bags packed and sitting by the door. He loves his Daddy!!!LOL Including his daddys big back yard! The only thing is he is going to be an only dog for awhile till we are both ready for another dog. I cannot wait to move our stuff and not have to worry about going back home on Sundays.You see we live a little over an hour apart. I have not found a job yet but I think I would like to start taking grooming classes. or there is this little pet shop that me and Spike like to go to by his house and I think I would love to work there.
Well we will see what happens.
Just wanted to share the good news!!!!!

Some guy once yelled at me that just because a certain thorobreed(sp?) dog (yes he said thorobreed dog) is supposed to be skinny to race that it does not mean that I should starve my dog to make him look like that. I did not understand what he meant at first but I figured it out once I got home I think he thought Spike was a greyhound and that I was not feeding him enough to keep him skinny on pupose. Little does the people that just because they are skinny does not mean they do not eat. Spike eats like a horse.

Thanks guys. I think he is about right not to big not to small it seems like he is in the middle of the chart. I am 5'2" so I guess he is about 29" tall and I think about 90-95. It just seems like as soon as he gains some mass he grows another inch and looks skinny again.

Spikes tennis balls are usually whole but bald as a babys butt.
He will just sit and pull the fuzz of if you let him. I stopped giving them to him. Still don't know why he does that.

General Board for Big Dogs with Big Paws / Re: Halloween Costume Ideas/Pictures please?!?!?
« on: August 26, 2005, 07:56:38 am »
I was thinking of a few ideas for Spike this is his first Hallows eve Spike does not seem to mind having things put on him as long as it is not in his eyes.
1. dress him up like Scooby pretty easy just a aqua collar and a Scooby tag but I was going to dress up like Daphne.
2. Get a saddle and bridle and me dress up like a cowgirl
3. A ballerina (but Pierre has vetoed that idea)
4. A prisoner with the stiped shirt and a plastic ball and chain. and me as a guard
5. old lady in a moo-moo like Scooby had on in the second Scooby movie.
As you can see Halloween is my favorite holiday even before Christmas. I am 26 and still love to dress up even if it is just to had out candy.
I'm just a big kid!

Great Dane Discussions / Dane Growth chart question?
« on: August 26, 2005, 07:17:34 am »
I was looking at Spike and was wondering if he is in the right size for his age.
He is 7mth old the top of his shoulder comes about to my hip and weighs about 90-95lbs.
Is he a little small or have I just been looking at to many pics of full grown danes?
