I am adopting a Great Dane in the morning!!!!
« on: August 04, 2006, 03:41:13 pm »


Hi, I have been lurking for a couple months. Now I have found a Great Dane to Adopt! His name is Axel and he is 19 months old. I also have a 6 mo. old pit bull pup named Riley. Riley is amazingly smart.

OMG I'm SO excited!  Is this the Axel that was in the MommyofSchauze rs thread?  If it is, I'm so happy that we played a small part in you finding him!  If not, YAY for you and Axel anyway!   

Post tons of pics of your new baby!!!!!

This Axel contacted me after I posted a "Great Dane Wanted" ad on craigslist. I am in Texas. We are driving 1 1/2 hours to get him. I can't wait.

Yayyyy for you and Axel!!!  I just adopted Cosmo, a Great Dane.  He is six years old and is the goofiest dog.  I am happy for you both and look forward to pictures soon!!

Well we are home. Axel is a sweet heart. The people I got him from only had him a month, they got him from some girl who had him in an apatment and kept him crated all the time. The 2nd owners kept him outside in the Texas heat! He has a rash all around his neck causing his hair to fall out in small patches. Any thoughts? They were putting Listerine on it? Also he was neutered a couple orf months ago but no one bothered to have the staples removed.

Riley my pittie pup is freaking out. Following Axel constantly and licking his face & jumping on him.

No Pictures yet, we recently moved and some of the parts of the dig. camera are packed.

Axel is a huge lap dog :)

Congrats on Axel, I too live in Texas and Jake my GD is certainly not out in this heat during the day- and only out for a little while in the early mornings and late evenings. It would be great to see some pictures.
