First year of the new Road dog..starts now (pics)

[RDMcG]

Here we go...the very first pic of what I hope will be my faithful companion for many thousands of miles across the country. I will not meet her for another six weeks or so, and have to pick her up in Provo, Utah. As she grows and changes...which she assuredly will, I will post a progression. Her breeder sent me this pic. Hard to believe that this will be a Great Dane............

Many levels of squee right there

[RDMcG]

Many indeed...I have to drive her nine hours back from Provo Utah to Scottsdale AZ in December...I will have to put plastic everywhere in the Jeep and stop often. Danes do grow quickly though, apart from the brain part, so will be fun to see the progress

[RDMcG]

Admittedly, very fierce-looking at this stage.....

[Jasandjules]

Lovely !! They are such funny dogs.

[FailHere]

Hmm, Great Dane + road-trips, makes me wonder; do you drive around the country in a multi-coloured van, with a group of friends, solving mysteries?

Cute puppy by the way.

[RDMcG]

four weeks till pickup now..

Here is her birthday pic...aged less than one day






and last week....

[Animal]

Amazing! Please keep the pictures coming...

[RDMcG]

Definite growth spurt now.....

[RDMcG]

A few seconds of video from the breeder....not sure if this link will work as never uploaded an iPhone vid before...

[reaper668]

Video works great. Cute pup. Looks like you're going to have your hands full soon.

[backwoodsman]

Wow, looks like you got the best of the litter.

[mrmaggit]

Definitely the stand out pup.

[RDMcG]

Growing quickly now...pick up on Dec 22...

Lovely pup!

IIRC, it was you that posted the thread on your last dog ? I rememeber a pic of a really grey old dane and it always comes into my mind as I look at my own hound aging.....

[Stu R]

Congratulations, looks a beaut.

Fair old trek to Utah! It'll be 4ft tall by the time you get home! Best use the Porsche

I thought so.

Very sad but beautifully put.....

Growth continues...this was weaning week.. The adult dog is not the parent . Pick up Dec 22, by which time she will possibly have doubled again....the ears will NOT be cropped...

[Turn7]

growing fast!
