I don't want a great dane.
Not again.
We got one after our rottweiler passed, and called him G-Force. He was the most gentle soul one could find in.a dog, and after a year or so he was tall... very tall. His demeanour was such that he actually seemed to understand me, we just clicked. Was the most awesome dog ever. Loved to play around, prancing like a horse and making u-turns at speed that left patches of grass flying. What a joy he was. Until his stomach and intestines twisted around, as they are prone to do in great danes, and we only noticed his pain the next morning. It was too late to save him, and after only 4 years we lost him. It really hurt, particularly knowing that he could've been saved had we noticed earlier.
Nope, don't want to go through that hurt again. Greatest dogs ever.
