Breeder of Great Danes demonstrates his feeding and training, a bit long but interesting to me at least and with some small amount of comedy. One of the females does a 32 inch vertical leap as feeding time draws near, a bit excitable but looks fun. Not sure I'd believe the long term life span expectations, pretty sure I'd doubt it actually, but what he claims to get today is interesting if it could be verified.
They own the couches, and you leave the house smelly......
I have four dogs ranging from 50 to 115 pounds, half of them mutts and none worth a dime to anyone but me. Three rodents for my youngest kid, a cat, and have over time taken in anything from broken winged birds to a hedgehog someone didn't know how to take care of as rescues. It's not as difficult as it seems with a little planning and basics such as air filters for the dander, and we don't have half the resources it seems they would.
Mine don't get on the furniture though. They are barrier trained in a similar way, if I tell them 'out of the kitchen' they go past an invisible line between the pantry and dishwasher and stay out. Won't go out an open door, and so on. Used to have one who you could lay a broom or something across the floor and he wouldn't pass it until told he could.
