Post by oldcoot »

Catherine had a friend in Charleston who told her about a lady rasing GREAT DANES. Going our of business. Shde took Cathderine to see and she fell in love with Greta the great. Both her parents were SHOW DOGS wirh a lot of ribbons.
She is pure bred and registered........

She knew OC had wanted a dog far so long, she bought this dog at a resonable price ??? And since she works all day and at night sometimes she knew she could
could not leav her in the house, so she made a deal WITH OC & JOY REALY EASY LIKE. wE KEEP THE DOG DURING THE WEEK she get her on the4 wdeek-end. Some week day nights too.....

Greta is now 6 months old and weighs 77 #. CATHERINE Is RESPONSIBE FOR ALL vET BILL AND FOOD, EXCEPT what Joy gets for her Ho-Ho- H0

Take a look at this Lovable doggie............
Uh oh forgot how to do this. I have the pictures ready to post, just can't figure how to upload BOO HOO Tell OC how :-? :-? :-? :-?

WOW She is a big un :D They are such gentle giants, I am so glad you have her OC! You can pat her and love on her and don't even have to bend down from your chair!! With training she could do alot of things to help you. Teach her to fetch when you need something or drop something :lol: :lol: She could even get stuff off of the counter or out of the fridge she is so tall!

BTW: I am so glad you are home and better! It is wonderful to see a post from you :beer:

Take care

She is a love !! OF all the dog's we have had she is the most affectionate we have had. She loves to be patted and Catherine says they are called Velcro dogs because they st9stick so loose too their keepers...........

If Joy or OC leave the room she follows which 9ich ever one leaves....Next Friday she gets to be "fixed" Part of the agreement Catherine ha with the kennel is that she would do that She was the runt of thews litter, and they were afraid she might not produce large dogs.

OC;s other daughter, Laury ( the one who loves horses, has the cutest Boston terrier that can give Greta great fits. S he is so fast and jumps so quick, but after a awhile they play together really good.

Below are several pictures of Sophie Laury's little doggie :beer: :D :D :D

Nice puppy. :)

My neighbor has one that's spotted (black spots on white)... I think it's called a Harlequin Great Dane? everyone thinks she's a Dalmation until they realize how big she is. She sure is a nice dog!

Ohhhhh, how very sweet they both are!!!! Greta is such a great name for that girl!

It would be so much fun to watch them play...especially because of their size difference. :lol:

So glad to see you posting some photos, OC, and very glad that you are home again.

Hope we'll see more of these as Greta grows up!

Greta is a real pretty pup! Love seeing her picture. Sophie is a cutie too. Love watching big & small dogs play...they look comical. That's for letting us see your baby!

:-? :-? she sure is affectionate !!@! And she IS getting larger. Weighed in for her fixing" at 85 pounds up from 77 several weeks ago, Wednesday. Kinda poky yesterday, but today almost back to Normal - Joy nurses good.......

She played a trick on OC today. He was in his big wheel chair, leaned way back, had counter weights so it won't tip. Greta Now tall enough to reach my pockets in that position,
I felt her nudge me but kept on eating my sugar free cookie. Not be ignored, she leaned over and took a cookie from OC's pocket Shirt. Joy just about split her sides at that.

Yes greta has been great for us both........Coot

Lucy You LET Greta goes where she wants. Joy has scratches on her arms where she tried to get her not too. That is one huge dog, but so lovable and friendly. OC never knew that about Danes...............

These are pictures of our Daughter Catherine playing with Greta
