enjoy! :D

What a cutie! And boy oh boy is he growing something fast or what. I've missed seeing Gracie & Beanie, it was so nice to see more of them. Thanks for the pics! :D

You know - I'm not very fond of Harlequins, but you do have one handsome hunk there! His sire is one of the best looking Harlies I've seen, so I can imagine Jake is going to be quite the looker!

Beanie probably isn't going to be too happy when Jake is 10x his size lol. He's the perfect size for Beanie to play with right now though. ;)

they are really a bunch of cutes, why do they cut the ears and not leave them as they are when they are born???

Great pictures! How tall and heavy is Jake now? He is such a BIG boy! :D :)

Crazy-Cat-Lover, i'm not sure how tall he is, but he's he's weighing somewhere around 50lbs!

poofy, Jake is going to be a show dog. there are two different kind of ears accepted at AKC dog shows. cropped or natural. i prefer the cropped look.

Those are really good pictures of some beautiful dogs. :D You can really see the muscles in Jake where you are trying to stack him. I never realized Danes had that much muscle. Are they pretty strong dogs?

That dog doesn't even look show marked! He won? Wow. That's cool though, more and more natural eared dogs are winning and that makes me really happy! :D

Uhoh.. bummer to hear about his ear...
but he sure is cute!! :D

I chose to keep my Dane puppies ears NATURAL! I love their floppy ears, besides -- I couldnt put a puppy through the pain of cosmetic surgery. :(

Cute Pictures, but sad to hear about his ears being cropped cause they look good :(

that is something, i have to admitte i like the up ears sigh.. :)

Nice to see Beenie and Gracie!Jake is so cute. I dont mind cropped ears,if she likes it thats her decision. :)

there's nothing wrong with prefering cropped ears. :)

.sarah, the dog isn't show marked. he may have won only because he was the only dog in his class. who knows what the judge was thinking. :confused:

Awww, look at that BIG puppy! I love his pink and black nose! Do you think it will stay that way?

i have no idea. thebreeder and i were talking about that yesterday. i hope it turns all or mostly black, but he'll be just fine whatever color his nose is. :)

How nice it is to see your whole crew, they sure are sweet.....Poor Jake, I hope everything goes well for him this time ;)

His nose has a good chance of turing all black. Cracker's was all pink when he was born and slowly over time it turned all black, mostly by the time he was one. If not he's still cute just like it is.

He's growing up to be quite a handsome boy! :) Sorry to hear about the re-cropping though. That must be a huuuuuge pain for both of you guys, although I really do like the look of cropped ears!

You probably already know this, but I just want to comment about the hindlegs. They're a taaad bit too forward. You probably already know, though ;) How's he doing with the freestacking?

AWW great pics lut!!
You pups are too cute!!

Gracie you are getting more and more beautiful with each day.
Beanie you are such a fluff ball, I just wanna give ya a big hug :D
Jake you have the sweetest face!! Your going to grow up to be a great show doggie!!

thanks everyone! :D Gracie and i are leaving for a dog show in Chicago today. we'll have more pics on monday or tuesday!

Giselle, i'm fully aware that his back legs are a little forward. :) that was one of our first training sessions. not too good. he's getting better though! his freestacking is getting better everyday. Jake is with the breeder until monday. he said he'd work on stacking and freestacking him.

Well I must say he's growing into a handsome little (little? did I say that:D) man!
I'd love to meet him, I bet he's just a big baby!

Sorry to hear about the re cropping but I'm sure they'll look good.


It's so great that him and Beenie play and get along so good like that. I'm sure when Jake gets bigger he'll be careful with his little brother;)

Ohhh and that gorgeous Gracie! She has one of the most adorable faces I've ever seen. She's really looking like a young lady now:)

Aww Jake is such a handsome boy and Beanie and Gracie are as cute as ever!

Your pups are adorable!! :D Jake is getting so big! I'll love to see him growing up!

maybe we'll make it to a PT meeting sometime! i know i'd LOVE to meet Bon! ...and Honey....and Roxy! :D

He's growing more and more handsome every day! I commend you for keeping up with the mantinence of cropped ears! I wish Jake was coming to Chicago too. Then again I don't think unentered dogs are alowed at the bench, are they? I'm looking forward to meeting you and Gracie. :)
