Alright already! sheeeehhh ::)
I vote for Miss Addie
I know ~flower~ will make sure Addie fulfills her obligations as DOM
-
i vote for BERLIN.
-
I'm somewhat conflicted this month because of what happened to Addie and how partial I am to great danes.
But I already promised my vote to Chucka, and I try to stick to my word. Chucka is so damn adorable. His face is so expressive and distinguished looking. 8)
I know that both Sin and flower will fulfill their responsibilities with the DOM, no doubt!
But I will vote for Chucka this month with a promise to vote for Addie next month if she doesn't win this one!

I think I promised to vote for Berlin or Emmett or Chucka but I have to go back through my posts to see which one(s) for sure.....I agree, I would vote for Addie this month but must try to stick to what I said before! Berlin may need some encouragement though!

Maybe you guys should STOP PROMISING VOTES for future months and just vote in the month. ::)

I'm throwing my dogs hat in the ring for whenever, I know there's probably a whole lot of pets in front of mine.

Addie's story:
Addie was a dump in a shelter in Defiance Ohio. A person on a natural Dane group I was on posted about her and that her time was almost up. I offered to take her, get her into good health, and place her. So I drove to Cleveland (she brought her 3 hours to Cleveland to lesson my drive) and got her by the Hard Rock Cafe. :D She looked like crap. Underweight, flat feet, sores and bumps, complete with a head and chest infection with green snot. :P We stopped at a rest stop on the way back and I got her some Burger King and I was waiting for someone to accuse me of abusing her. We had a pretty uneventful ride home (I didn't get lost!! :D) and I realized when we got home she was so well behaved because she had chewed almost completely thru one of the back harness seat belts. ::)
Briona and Emmett weren't too thrilled to meet her. They would run away if she came near them but she didn't care, she was very friendly and had no problems with them. She went to the vet and was put on antibiotics to clear up her snotty infections and I put her on a raw diet. Because of her condition, infections, and being about 25pounds underweight, everything she ate came right out the other end. :-X I put her on cooked ground beef and rice for her first week or so. Boy was that a fun week. ::) She was crated when I wasn't home because everyone wasn't acclimated yet, and she wasn't really housebroken, I did a lot of laundry cleaning her bedding!!
Obviously Addie didn't get placed and she stayed with me. My friend on the Dane group knew she wasn't going anywhere and thought it was funny when I had originally said she would be placed. Her name on her collar when dumped was Salem, I started calling her Flipper at first because of her feet, but then settled on Addie.
Below are some pics of when she first got here.
Stay tuned for more installments............ ..... ;D
-
I'm definitely not disappointed, this will be a great thread!
My vote will still be going to Chucka next month. ;D
I love the pic of Addie that's in the banner I am using...great banners!
-
:)

:)
for some reason, that pic reminds me of the animated Jungle Book movie. Baloo & mowgli.

:)
That is one of the sweetest pictures I have ever seen.
Thanks for making such a nice home for Addie (and the rest).
-
I wish I had a better video camera, Addie and Tad were playing last night, it was pretty funny!! Tad was running around behind the couch and through the living room. He would go around one side of the couch and Addie would run to the other end knowing that was where he was going to come out!! Then they would wrestle around (Addie would roll him around with her head with Tad biting her lips!) and she'd paw at him. It's funny to see the look on her face when she is trying to get him! ;D And to see a big dog playing rough and tumble but gently with a little dog.
That's why they were all tuckered out, from their play session. :D
-
OMG Addie and Tad are so cute together...they make a great couple!
:D
-
I wish I had a better video camera,
We don't need high quality....just shoot the scene :D
Addie and Tad could surpass the wildly popular "Bear Pwns Getbig" video ;D
That reminds me, anymore on that Xanadu thing?
-

It's that it is too dark and my vid camera is too cheap for less than perfect conditions. :P I may be borrowing a vid camera for something else so maybe I can get some footage. One day I will splurge and get a better one. I will ask that cheap bastardo goatboy to send me one!! ;D
That reminds me, anymore on that Xanadu thing?
I got another note, the quality isnt' that good to use and they need the original or a better quality. I can't really get a better quality of it. :-\ I have all the movies on DVD but I don't have software to cut out parts off it.
-
Allrighty, Addie is going to have her knee debrided and closed tomorrow. :( Have a drainage tube for a few days also. The skin sloughing off has gone down to muscle in a few areas and while it could probably heal on it's own, that would take about 6-8 weeks if everything went fine, so surgery seems the best choice in helping it heal faster.
pics and more details are in this thread, but don't click if you are squeamish!!

An excellent idea. Maybe he can wrap it in your shirt and send them both along!

I would NOT kiss that boo-boo!! :o
Hopefully this will be the end of this saga!! :-\
-
Yes!
What time is the surgery please?
-
Best wishes for Addie to have a speedy recovery, and hopefully this will take care of the problem!
:)
-
What time is the surgery please?
not sure, sometime in the morning I believe. She should be able to come home tomorrow as long as no complications. She doesn't have a problem going to the vets, she will walk right in, but now she won't settle down while there, she tries to get on my lap and whines and wants to go, and even her prong collar on only helped marginally today. Rubbing her ears didn't help either. She'll go and look at the doorknob and look at me like "yo, if I had hands I would so be turning that and out-a here!"

:)
Thanks Rip!!! I hope so too! And we still don't know what caused all these complications. I hope this is the last of them!!
-
Addie got the tube out today - Yeah! So far things look good, healing fine. There is a bruise on the inside of that leg I need to keep an eye on and for any more that show up, but that bruise has stayed the same size since I noticed it so I think it will be fine.
Her weight is staying good, she's about 116-118, so she hasn't gone back to sow-doggieness even without being able to get walked.
We go back Wednesday for another check. :P
-

having half the tissue in your leg cut off tends to keep the weight down.
so, they ask you to be a mod yet?
'cause I'm still boycotting this board. might be a permanent thing . . . like a hunger strike that goes on too long.

I don't think her leg weighed that much. :P
I-don't-want-to-mod. So go and have a pizza or something. :D

I may be getting a new MUCH better vid camera. My present to me for taking a class I really really want to drop. >:(

Awesome videos!!!
I can't believe how much energy those pups have! My dane would run around like that for like 2 minutes and then sleep for the rest of the day! :D

May we please have an A.U.D? :)

Addie's leg is healing nice. Despite most of the sutures having pulled out, the incision is still closed, so she doesn't need to be resutured. I hope that it doesn't suddenly decide to pull apart.
I think it was the right decision, it will heal much faster than if we left it and waited. She goes back to get her sutures (ha none will be left!) out on the 27th. Will discuss any testing we might want to do with the vet then.
She is going bonkos from no walks. She had her spay on 9/26 so if she gets the go ahead on the 27th for walks that will be a month!! Her big fun is going to the vet but then she gets there and is like "this is it? this is bonk!!" >:(
Will get some updated pics this weekend. :)
-
Thanks for the update! Good to hear she is doing so well :)
-
Leg is healing GREAT. All the sutures are out now, but it is holding closed so re-suturing won't be necessary. There will be nothing to remove next Saturday!!
:)
-
Thanks for the update and pics Amy. Her healing seems almost miraculous considering how it looked initially!
Did this used to be a part of that picture?

No!! lol!! This couch replaced that one (she pulled parts of it off but didn't eat them ::) )
I am happy how it has healed, I think she is too! :D

lololoz I laughed throughout almost the whole thing!
How long did you have Tad before you weren't nervous to let them play-"fight" like that?
-
dogs are smart . . . she pushed him on to the couch, when she could have sent him flying off it.
-

Once Tad wasn't scared of them he took to Addie pretty quick. It wasn't that long after that. I just kept an eye on them and she was always gentle with him. You can see she kind of "chews" on him but with her mouth left open. :D Or she will roll him over or try and squish him with her head sometimes. He cleaned Addie's eyes in that vid, and he does Emmett's. And sometimes their teeth!! ;D
He must not pull on Addie's lips that hard because she puts up with it! I love it when her ears go up when they are playing, she looks really cute!
Did ya notice Emmett just laying there? ;D
-

Please try to get a vid of that ;D

Yes, at first I thought Emmett's body was Addie's body!

Addie had her last leg checkup Saturday, looks great, healing fine, got the A-OK for walks now!
I will take her back in about a month or so and get some blood tests done to see if she does have an underlying condition.
-
omg that was really cute!!
:D
;D
Addie got a lil overzealous with Tad yesterday, I had to put a stop to it. I don't think she would of intentionally hurt him, but she was pretty riled and might of accidentally done it. Tad had jumped on my lap for safety but then hopped off and proceeded to bite her in the leg so I guess he wasn't tooo scared. ::)

When he bit her did she just look at him or did it hurt her? Please try to keep the video camera in hand at all times ;D

They ignore him. He likes to bite everyone in their legs, except Emmett, I don't think he does that to Emmett? Must be he likes to bite the girls. ;D
I will take more vids once I get a program to compress the files, they take up too much space on my computer and I can't even email them. >:(

does he bite your legs? you really need to get (at least) a couple more dogs to test your theory re "sex-based discrimination in undersized canids."

He likes to bite my toes!! :D
No more room so that study will have to wait! ;D

Flower, Addie has been a great DOM. Thanks for all the pics, videos, and updates!
:)
-
Thanks RIP!! Once I get a compression software thingy I will take more vids! I have an editing program that you can add music and splice scenes and other stuff but I doubt I will EVER be able to figure that out! ::)
Yesterday was cop day on our walk. First one pulled over and got out to see the dogs (I was like "please don't knock the cop over ::)) and then later on another one stopped and asked how much food they all went through.
Addie is really happy to be able to get out now (and so am I!!) :D
