He must have been going after a cat or a squirrel.
The G Danes I see on the beach are magnificent. Often they are harassed by small dogs but remain dignified.
Goodness gracious doggie ping....
Aliens? Cult members? Bigfoot?
They are great dogs. I’d have one but they have quite short lives.
Gives one paws...
So far my Great Dane hasn’t done anything like that. All he does is lie around the house, insist on constant scratching, demand regular car rides, and slobber all over me.
Mine’s gotten up to five years and so far has excellent health. He’s an absolutely wonderful dog, friendly, hilariously funny, and a total love. All the delivery persons, trades people, and neighbors think he’s great.
I remember one of my classmates in college telling me a story of him coming home one day from class. The whole apartment had been flipped over, seat cushions pulled off the couch, chairs flipped over, the rug was pulled, curtains were yanked down. The student followed the trail of destruction and found the Great Dane laying on HIS king size bed, on his back, legs in the air, head on the pillow and snoring. I still laugh when I think about that!
My Dane’s paws are like pie plates.
A bit goosey is she?
I still smile when I think about coming home one day and the 10 pound bag of potatoes was spread all over the house. It wasn’t a Dane but a big Lab mix.
For later.

LOL
My dad had a couple...they'd kill you with kindness. Both never made it past five years.
In the 20 seconds he was unmonitored when I let him in this morning, My Lab/Pyrenees mix ate my g.d. breakfast taco off the table. I only realized it a few minutes ago when I saw the wrapper on the floor and analyzed the crime scene.
He left my coffee, though, which was nice.
My oldest son rescued a Rot/Shepherd mix a couple of years ago. She now weighs 90 pounds, though her target weight is 65. Funny dog, she plays fierce and nasty with the growling to go with it. Every now and then she'll break my skin, and she backs down immediately.
When my son moved out, he had to leave her behind. I joke that we got the best of both deals. Then again, was I really joking? lol
