Noted in passing: need big sofa if that's going to be his normal bed. He is adorable

Our Danes are that way. If Im playing with one of them the other will climb up and set on my lap to get the attention instead of the other. The personality of a Dane is like no other dog.

I like it when the sofa dog kind of falls over at the end of the video like a giant sigh!

LOL! Danes are the best! I to cracked up when he plopped over having a little hissy fit.

all dogs get the jealous stuff going, danes just do it cuter.

I have a lap rottweiler, a lap shar pei and a lap dobie/gsd mix, and whoever has the lap is in trouble or I am in trouble so I make them take turns.
I have to give the sofa dane credit for staying on the sofa. Camelo might have, Bronx might have, but my Cici the wild dobie mix would have chewed the other dog's ears off... (she is still a puppy of just over 1 year)

OK Theo is my sidekick and he rides with me everywhere I go. We are inseparable. I wont stop into a place dogs are not welcome so he doesnt set in truck. He goes in with me tagging along at me feet(not bad for 6 weeks old pup) I had to go to Udall today and the wife rode along. She said she doesn't understand how I can keep the wild devil calm while riding. She was amazed at what she saw. I'm not sure how long we will be able to ride like this as he grows but this is how I do it. He loves his back paws rubbed. so the first pic is of Theo and I driving down the road all is good he is setting up like a kid and I am rubbing his rear paw. The second pic shows what happens after a little bit of this. He will get so relaxed he falls out asleep. wife was amazed that this was the key to him riding in the truck with me. Its amazing how well we have gotten to know each other in the week and a half we have been together

I've Dogs and truck seats go together nicely. I've truck trained all my pups, takes a little while, but that one on one head in lap time is worth learning to lay down and stay out of the mirror. They just love it. My rotti loves to ride but I got him at 18 months and much bigger and he has yet to lay down, he stands along the seat back and looks out the window now. I did manage to teach him that and sit... And when you eat fried chicken livers in the cab of the truck with the dog and they don't beg or try to get the leftovers off the dash, your dog is trained!

The brother of our dog Katy, just never got the riding in a truck thing down. He's a lab/chessie mix and almost the size of a dane. If his owners are taking a 1/2 hour drive or a 9 hour drive, he still pants and shakes himself into a dither. He pants and shakes when the compressor is on, he pants and shakes when the lawn mower is going, he gets sick with thunder, the shot of a rifle. Other than that he's the nicest dog you ever met. Turns out all the pups from his litter are the same way. Hunters came and picked out their lab/chessie mix pups thinking that these dogs would be mighty hunting companions. Turns out they are all a bunch of cuddlers. They're just wired that way.

I fostered a pair of nice little rottweiler mix girls, one half shepherd, the other half pit from the look of them, in early 2013. Both got carsick within 3 or 4 miles. Some dogs do, and they do not always outgrow it. Since I will be truck training all my dogs, I just found them homes with someone that had 20 acres and didn't plan on driving with them, they trained to be service dogs for grandma.

I have never seen a white Dane before, I love his face and tail markings.

Riverrat · « **Reply #78 on:** September 26, 2014, 12:53:16 am »

He is a result of a breeder somewhere down his blood lines of breeding 2 harlequins together which will through a mutant gene causing the "piebald" color AKC does not recognize this as a color for a Dane. They can be registered but you cant show them. Piebalds usually have hearing or sight problems. He is partially deaf but has good eyesight

Jen · « **Reply #79 on:** September 26, 2014, 01:15:15 am »

Does he have blue eyes?
