Hi,
I'm Jeri.  I have owned Great Danes for 28 years, one at a time.  I am not a breeder, just a Dane lover.  My first dane,Miwok,  was a brindle who lived to be ten, My second dane,Maya, was a harl how lived to be twelve, my third little girl, Inca, was from a BYB and had congennital problems and only lived to be four.  My current boy, Modoc is a Blue from the UK so he's quite stocky and a sweet boy.  He has dog issues that we have been working with a behaviorist for and having some sucess but he thinks if you have two legs you walk on water, lol..  He loves humans.  We're in our RV on a road trip, with Modoc , right now but just wanted to introduce myself.  Look forward to meeting you all dog loverfs,
jeri

I'm not a Dane person, I'm Nicole. I'm a Chewfoundland person. hehehehe! My pooch is Cabeza, a Chow/Newf X and Mabel, a um...black fuzzy mutt.

Hi,
thanks for the welcome.  Well to answer some of the questions.  Yes we did meet in a different forum.  Glad to see you again.  Modoc travels great in the RV, he just lays on the couch and now and then gets up in the front seat to check things out.  We had to get a security check today coming over the Hoover Dam.  On guy checks out the bins under the RV the other comes in and looks inside.  They guy that came in ended up plying with Modoc for 5 minutes and never even looked around, lol.
.  We had a 6-7 hour trip today for our next start.  Wanted to leave early.  I took my shower but figured, oh well I can wash my hair on the road.  We have a generator so I can blow dry my hair while we’re traveling.  So here we are at 60 miles an hour..  Me with my head in the walk in shower full of soap and Modoc decides he needs a shower..  Shoves me out of the way and starts getting into the shower.  Soap in my eyes, clothes getting  soaked I am trying to turn off the water, screaming at Nat to take an off ramp ad get off the freeway.  He has no idea why.  He does.  He stops.  I’ve got Modoc out of the shower.  I am sitting on the floor laughing my butt off.  Oh well,, Nat needed to use the bathroom anyway and he took Modoc potty.  Now I know to close the door to the shower room or get my butt up earlier to take care of the vanity things, lol, lol.

Hi Jeri, welcome!  I'm dying to hear more about your travels with Modoc.  Have you ever read "Travels with Charlie"?  I read it many years ago and I've had it in the back of my mind ever since to take such a trip someday.  In fact, hubby & I plan to buy a motorhome when we retire and take the Pyrs on our travels with us.  We've been curious about the new global wi-fi that is out now, have you used it while traveling?  If it works, we may try traveling sooner vs. later b/c my husband telecommutes anyway, so if the wi-fi is reliable, we may just take the kids with us and go now while they can enjoy all of the sights, too.  BTW, your bathroom story really cracked me up, you & your husband must be really cool under pressure!  ;)  ;D  Please tell us more about your travels when you can.  I'm glad that you found BPO.
