My Mom is adorable isn't she?

She is really tiny, I am 7 inches taller than her

so she looks really little when we're together.

Yeah, I got that a lot, too, as Finn was growing. People were always so shocked to hear his age, because he would inevitably be smaller than their dogs. Now, he's actually a tiny bit heavier than he should be! He caught up with all of them, he just did it at a healthier pace! (He's actually gone from 88 pounds to 82 pounds since May, so, his exercise is helping a lot, yay!)

Aw, I am only 5'1 or 5'2, depending on if I'm standing straight.

You are tall! I'd definitely have to look up to you if we met!

Bailey is an extremely attractive dog, he's a great representative of the raw diet!

Thanks everyone! Bailey is a wonderful dog to be around, everyone loves him. He is a favorite around here, everyone has to stop and say hi to him before they head up to their apartment. The security guard comes to see him every night - Bailey loves him. Alot of people are intimidated by his size, even though I try and explain to them that he is a giant love bug.

I couldn't imagine not having Bailey in my life, I know now that I will always have a Dane. They are awesome dogs, the perfect breed for our family.
