Great Danes are wonderful and they can be big goof balls. We had two when I was growing up. One was fawn the other brindle. It was a lot of fun with those dogs around.

The fawn one used to tackle me when I would run from her. Once she had me down she would roll over on me and wait for me to try to wrestle her and get up.

The brindle would grab you by the pants and pull them down when you tried to run from her. Course when girls would come by I would always tell them, "take off running, she loves to play". One of those girls is now my wife. Good times.

They really are great dogs, extremely gently and very loyal. Although they will run into you and step on your feet ad what not. I almost always have a bruise of some sort form her, but it is never intentional. I was playing with her inside the other day chasing her and she jumped and hit her head on the top of the door frame. Only with a Dane. They are so athletic, and have no clue. She has run beside my cruiser on the farm at a sustained 35 mph!

Golden.... He's my buddy!

 

[household6]

My breed is Old English Mastiff. My beautiful Buddy died suddenly without warning in mid March. He was three and a half. Vet thinks there was a hidden (nonsymptomatic) heart condition. Buddy was loving, fun, protective and just overall the best dog ever! I have owned several breeds, always for their entire life span. My fav so far is the OEM. I am searching for a puppy but will be taking my time, looking for just the right one!

Yellow Labs. Once you've had one it's hard to imagine life without one. So much so, we got a second one to go with the first! Just lost our first one to Cancer at 10 years old, and are working on getting another. Her absolute favorite thing to do was going for a ride in the 40 with the top down, wind in her face, and slobber slinging all over anything behind us!

Wow, your parents must be doing something very right! Care to share the secrete?

Your 2 year old looks exactly like our Charlie, who we rescued. We also rescued an older golden, Kita, who was in pretty bad shape for her age as she never got any exercise outside the house.

We lost our Ruby (RIP) who we had from a puppy 2 years ago this past week to cancer. It was pretty hard for the whole family as she grew up with our kids and was just one of the family.

I'd really like to learn your parent's secrete. Goldens have a way of really becoming just one of the kids in your family.

i no longer have any dogs.

Of all the dogs i have had my favorite was my Australian Shepherd

the animal shelter said he was 1-2yrs but he was probably 5-7yrs old when i got him.

He was sweet, loyal, obeyed all commands, was a joy on the leash or even on the beach without a leash. Until he lost his hearing he was very good with staying right with you on walks without the leash.

He never barked unless another dog was bothering him. He did not chase other dogs or cats or any animals or even let it be known they existed until they got in his face. Even when he was annoyed past his breaking point he would only bark and walk the other way.

He was big so when he ran up to strangers they would sometimes get scared. Having only a nub for a tail i guess some people couldn't tell that he was excited for someone new to pet him. Even at the dog park he would ignore all other dogs and go from person to person for attention.

My son is almost 4. From the time he could crawl he would be all over Dingo. Dingo would move around the house to avoid him until my son was about a year old. After that point Dingo realized he couldn't out run the todder anymore and was subjected to much abuse like loud noises and sometimes hair pulling. Dingo took it in stride and never once growled at any person the entire time i had him.

I had to put him down about a year and a half ago due to old age and failing health.

He was almost deaf and completely blind. It hurt for him to get up and down but would still follow you from room to room around the house.

Was hard to let my friend go but it was for the best.

He was probably around 10+yrs old when he went.

I missed the puppy years. I don't care if he had eaten all the furniture in the house the mature dog i had as a pet would have been all worth the while. I hear aussies are very energetic when young. They need to be worked/trained/exercises properly.

I was 25 and single/active when i got dingo. Probably wouldn't be a good breed for a family with young children/inactive life style. If you dont have a few hours to dedicate to the dog each day....find another breed.

York really does look like your Charlie!

I really don't know why we have had such good luck with Shadow. He has lived outside all of his life, only goes to the vet if he is sick, we adopted him from a abusive home when he was 2, and he has been attacked to almost the point of death. I guess he just has very good genes and we have just been lucky.

For the past year we have been using missing link and it has really pep'd him up. http://www.amazon.com/Missing-Link-...GKIO/ref=sr_1_7?ie=UTF8&qid=1327939854&sr=8-7

I highly recommend it.

Really sorry to hear about your loss. Its hard to say good bye. I lost my first dog that I raised last year. Funky golden/chow mix.
