Great Dane Discussions / New here-just adopted Star
« on: November 27, 2005, 07:30:54 pm »
Hi! I've been lurking here for a few months, and finally got my first dane! Her name is Star and she's five years old. We adopted her from MAGDRL yesterday, and already she's fitting nicely into our family.
The rest of the family includes my husband, two kids (5 and 8 years old), a chow/akita mix named Max, and two cats. So far, Star is not eating much, but loves to lean against you and get belly rubs! She is drinking some water, so I'm thinking the loss of appetite is due to the stress of a new home. She does prefer Max's dog food to hers (and Max likes hers better), and she lights up when there's people food around! I'm not too concerned, yet
We are looking forward to getting to know her more, and I hope to learn lots from you on this board!
