When Briscoe got to us you could see every rib and every joint of his spine. He was 13.2 pounds. Now he is a healthy 15.3. With sooooooo much more energy. Zoey is overweight and just over 20 pounds. We're working on it.
Last time I was able to coerce the goddess to stand still on the vet scales, she weighed 125 pounds and had maybe 5 or 10 to go before fully grown. Not the biggest of Danes, but on target for a female. Her dog buddies weigh 10 and 15 pounds. The cat weighs 20, a huge black Tom.
I was brought up with Great Danes from a young age.
My first dog was for my 4th birthday and was just a mere spaniel, but when I was 9 we got a male Great Dane which towered over me and my parents have owned one ever since (except their last rescue dog which was supposed to be a Dane cross but turned out not to be, just some small bullmastiff cross, well small to my eyes anyway). As the saying goes, once a Great Dane owner, always a Great Dane owner. I absolutely love their uncropped ears. They are the most delightful things to stroke.
