He is a blue, brindle, merle Great Dane.
After a ton of searching, we found Jack (formerly Chevy) in Indiana, so we road tripped as a family of four to pick him up and bring him home when he was exactly 8 weeks old (February 21st)!
Here are the photos we saw that sealed the deal:
This is what Jack looked like when we picked him up:
He was such a good boy in the car, but was a little quiet and nervous. Heoved sleeping on mommy's lap though. He still thinks he is a lap dog, even though he doesn't fit very well anymore...
When he got home, it took him a couple of days to get used to the place. He found a doggy door from the previous owners! But he never quite fit....
Paul made him his very own dish. Great Dane's can get 'bloat' very easily, especially if they don't eat with their heads at stomach level.
Jack's first few days home we had some excitement. Reese had the flu and I stayed home one whole day, it was the first time he didn't have to be in the crate all day!
Also, myself Reese, and Cole took him to his new vet. He is a friend of mine from running club, Dr. Harden at Clarke Animal Hospital. Everyone there LOVED Jack, but he didn't love being on the leash. He was very good though, even through the shots!
I think that catches you up pretty well. Jack is getting better at going potty outside and letting us know when he needs to go. He sometimes get left alone out of the crate for a few hours and does great!
More posts to come pretty quickly, as this big boys growth is a LOT to catch you all up on, stay tuned!
