I am trying to put up a pic....bare with me...

Here he is in all his glory!

Awww look at him, he's going to a big boy! Just wait till he's full grown and tries to jump in bed with you in the middle of the night!

Thats a nice looking dog. Your dog food expenses just went up. Dramatically.

 

[BLS Blondi]

Yeah, he eats a ton. He has been gaining 5-6 lbs. per week.

Nice, we had a Dane when we were kids. I remember running in the yard around the BIG piles the dog left, don't wana step in one of them!

Omg that is insane! 5-6 pounds! Take a picture every few weeks I want to see this puppy grow!

that dog might as well have an exponential growth curve

 

[OldHag]

awww when I have enough room (not so many pets) I would like a Dane. My friend has one, hes a sweetheart!! The biggest lap dog alive!

Awsome dogs

This breed is my dog of choice. The two i have had slept and ate alot and grew as pups but once they were past 18 months they do not eat a whole lot. Hell our current female Pit Bull eats more than my adult male dane ever did. Low energy dogs so they make excellent indoor dogs.

He is so cute!!!! How is he doing on training? How clumsy is he? I had a big dog a while ago and he grew so fast that he couldn't keep up with his own growth rate, he would trip over his own feet and fall on his face.

 

[BLS Blondi]

He is doing quite well so far. He is still too young for obedience training, yet he is almost completely housebroken. He knows how to sit, (and how to beg for treats--of course) and fetch, but he is starting to lose his milk teeth...yes TEETHING!!!!! This has been quite a terror, and despite the fact that he has every toy, bone, and rawhide that PetSmart has to offer, he still feels that nothing soothes his gums like the human hand. But we are working on it. I will post a new pic here real soon.
