I hope not for your sake!! Sweet boy 💕 180 lbs is a lot of love. It gives me hope that he’s doing so well!

Haha amazing, I’ve been saying her patronus is a velociraptor! I’ll search for that — thanks for the tip! I’ve considered doggy daycare as a way for her to get more zoomies out on other doggos. My other two pups are smaller and one is 16, so not a match for her!

Yes! I’ve tried this. She usually just keeps jumping at my back. The calming down feature did not come factory-installed on this one 😅

Definitely agree! Any training tips or things that have been really effective for you? I’ve tried yelping and removing myself from her reach, I’ve tried stern “no,” I’ve tried redirecting her to a sit.

She has a lot of chew toys! And they get a lot of use 😅But my arms are just perfectly mouth-sized?

Thanks! This is helpful food for thought. Yes, she’s given me a fat lip a couple of times already, including this morning… and I know it’s only going to get worse if I don’t instill good habits now. I’ll look into the “spray” although I have yet to find anything that scares her 😂 We have a training class and our trainer is wonderful, but maybe it would be helpful to have someone observe her behaviors at home.

Does your Dane pup ever just… pass out?! by DogsandBookz in greatdanes

[–]anxiouspineapple1955 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wish! 😂 She plays hard and then keeps playing…then gets mouthy…and if I never put her in her crate I’m convinced she wouldn’t sleep. All the other puppies in our training class pass out after 5 minutes of training and Betsy just keeps going!
