Morning all. Yesterday I was telling you about my Great Dane puppy. My daughter had a get together with friends of hers the other day, and she had to leave my pup alone at home. Upon returning, the Great Dane had eaten my Bowling trophy!! And I'm assuming "swallowed" a wooden bowling pin. No....its not one of those you actually hit with a bowling ball, its like an award pin, approximately 6" tall. We can't find it anywhere so I can only assume she consumed it.
The damn thing was sitting on a shelf above the sofa, can you believe her?? She also ate a couple of DVDs. At least the cases. I realize shes a pup, and I have take all precautions as to her entertainment. Toys for Great Danes are very expensive, and she has had her share of them. You have to get them, otherwise the walls in the house start to look good to a teething Great Dane. One of my older daughters has a male Mantle Great Dane, and he literally ate the chair molding off the wall. She's had to replace the molding around doors too. :) I can't help but smile...does that make me insane???
There's something about these dogs.........I think its the kindness in their eyes....it must be. Why else would I not be burying her by now??
