How did you manage to find a Daneador? My older dog was advertised as a Daneador, but turned out to be a Pitador. My younger dog is a 110 lb. Great Dane.

A Daneador? never heard that before - will need to look into it. He’s a rescue dog. Our previous rescue was a husky/Australian Shepheard/??? mix. (I loved that dog - very smart, great guard dog, great playmate with the kids)

The folks at the shelter said “Oh - I think he’s black lab and springer spanial mix - so he shouldn’t get too big.” (I can’t remember if they said spanial or what - but it was a dog similar in size or smaller than a lab.)

A friend came over (dog person) and said “Oh - he’s part Great Dane!” My wife and I about died. We told the shelter folks we didn’t want a huge dog. Thank goodness he didn’t get the size of a Great Dane. He’s around 70 lbs iirc with a very tall and sleek build.

I just mentioned to my daughter as he bounded up the stairs: “And to think when we brought him home he didn’t know how to go up the stairs!” They found him on some country road and had spent most of his young life in a crate I suppose.

I had to look up what a “pitador” is. At first I was thinking he was a “pain in the ass” labrador! Now I see a pit/lab mix.
