Sarah,
You know so much about Great Danes I thought there was no better person to ask my questions too. I will ask my breeder as well, but I would love to know what you would suggest. I hope you don't mind!
My puppy is coming home tomorrow in the morning and I have the food and raw bones and such. We were looking into buying him elevated food and water dishes, but is it really neccesary when they are puppies? I have heard they should have them so it puts less stress on their necks.
Breeders often say that tennis balls are a no no for Great Danes. Are there any other types of balls I can buy? I have seen giant tennis balls, but they are too huge.
Chew toys... While I will be giving raw bones, I want to get some extra safe chew toys for him. I love Kongs, but what others do you think would be great for him?
Harness or collar? Martindale, plain or prong? 4' or 6' leash? I am so confused about this! I would rather not use a prong, but have heard many great things about them. The leash length breeders recommend is 4', but I love having a longer leash.
One more - Neutering... I want to wait until he is atleast 18 months old (unless stipulated in the contract to be done earlier). So he doesn't end up looking like a "bitchy dog" - sorry for the expression. What is your opinion on this?
Thank you in advance...
My breeder sent this the other night...
