I love my shepard..always have had one. But I would have loved a Dane..my vet at one time said they had a lot of health issues even from good breeders. Do you fine that to be true?

Hi Pam and welcome. Great Danes are great (no pun intended). My niece has one and he is HUGE. I took a pic of him next to a Chihuahua (I think) just to show the size difference. It was pretty funny. I'll see if I can dig it up. They are really gentle giants.
Shizzle -- stemming from my son's and nephew's obsession with the DVD "Malibu's Most Wanted" several years ago...they watched it so often, even *i* soon knew every single line from it. i used to be "Fo Shizzle" on other forums (yep, i'm too lazy to even come up with a new name for each one), but that caused confusion because some would refer to me as "Fo" and some as "Shizzle", so i eventually shortened it.

The dane you see is a Mantle. The harlequins look similar to Dalmatians, in that they have a white body with black patches, not spots.
Some have health issues. I had one come down with hip dysplasia at a young age. Thats about all. Of over 100 puppies I've bred and places, about 5 had reported issues. It does happen. The biggest disappointment with Danes is that they only live 8-12 years.
My mom bred shepherds. They were from a schutzhund line. Many were placed as police dogs and such. I had 2 of hers. They werent for me. Intelligent, but too active. I like a calm lazy dog that doesnt require too much indoor space.
Thanks for the warm welcome.

I had a German Shepherd not too long ago. He's gone now. I got him when he was 6-8 wks old and he lived 14 yrs. That's a long time for GS. He was not only intelligent but very loyal & obedient. The only time he was rowdy was when he was playing with my smaller dog. I really miss him.

thank you ladies...This is a nice place, I need to stumble in here more often.
My treatment is over for now. The growth rate of the malignant tumor stopped and my body needed a break. It isn't completely gone and we are monitering it and the benign tumors closely, but at this point I get a break and can enjoy life a little again.
