HAPPY BIRTHDAY DUTCHESS & DUKE. B-DAY PARTY YOU ARE INVITED!!

FIVE YEARS AGO TODAY 2 LITTLE GREAT DANE PUPPIES WERE BORN.DUTCHESS IN THE BACK. DUKE IN THE FRONT.8 WEEKS LATER WE ADOPTED THEM.ORIGANLLY WE WENT ONLY TO GET THE LITTLE MALE PUPPY .THE LITTLE FEMALE WITH THE STAR ON HER CHEST HAD OTHER THINGS IN MIND, SHE FOLLOWED ME AROUND FROM THE TIME WE ARRIVED THERE AND I JUST COULD NOT LEAVE WITHOUT HER.SOMEHOW SHE KNEW SHE NEEDED ME AND I KNEW I NEEDED HER.SO THAT COLD SNOWING NIGHT WE ENDED UP LEAVING WITH 2 GREAT DANE PUPS.WHOM WE NAMED DUKE AND DUTCHESS.TODAY THEY TURNED 5 YEARS OLD. DUKE ON THE LEFT ,DUTCHESS ON THE RIGHT.
AT 6 MONTHS OF AGE DUTCHESS GOT VERY SICK.THE VET SAID THERE WAS NOTHING ELSE HE COULD DO FOR HER. SHE WOULD NEVER MAKE IT TO HER FIRST BIRTHDAY!I WOULD NOT GIVE UP ON HER AND TOOK HER TO A SPECIAL VET IN ANOTHER COUNTY.
SO WITH ALOT OF COMPUTER RESEARCH AND HELP FROM OTHER GREAT DANE OWNERS OVER THE INTERNET THROUGH OUT THE COUNTRY,WE FINALLY GOT SOME ANSWERS AND A CURE FOR DUTCHESS.
HERE IS DUTCHESS WITH HER BIRTHDAY BURGER.NOTICE HER SCOOBY DOO PINK SCARF?BELOW IS DUKE IN HIS SCOOBY DOO BLUE SCARF.THEY HAD SCOOBY DOO PARTY HATS AND PARTY DECOR.I BAKED THEM A VAN CAKE WITH CREAM CHEESE ICING.

Jen, That is the sweetest post I have ever read! Oh your baby dogs are so adorable. Is Dutchess now cured, or does she need ongoing care for whatever she had? Poor baby.

Looks like we are getting a new puppy Friday. Dan has been bugging me for a new puppy. A co-worker has a female pitbull on hold for him. I'll post pics this weekend. Chloe, our last pitbull, was the best dog either Dan and I had ever had our whole lives. I hope that this new lil' girl will be the same. Hope you are feeling better. hugs, Ellen
