Still Waters Posted August 14, 2012 #1 Share Posted August 14, 2012 It's quite a tall order but this lanky pooch has just one ambition - to become the world's tallest female dog. Great Dane Cooper stands at a staggering 36.5inches tall soaring above the current record holder who is one inch smaller, and has been entered in to the Guinness Book of Records. Now the five-year-old hound is waiting for the judges to crown her with the prestigious title of world's tallest female pooch for herself and her long legs. http://www.dailymail...36-5inches.html 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meryt-tetisheri Posted August 14, 2012 #2 Share Posted August 14, 2012 Cooper has such soft kind eyes! I have a huge soft spot for Great Danes, they are quircky, funny, stubborn and very gentle; particularly with children ( of course under supervision when children are young). Females in particular tend to 'mother' children, they make excellent nannies! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ealdwita Posted August 14, 2012 #3 Share Posted August 14, 2012 (edited) Strange that. I always thought the term for a female canine was 'b****'! Nope, thought not! At least not on this site or the Daily Mail anyway! Edited August 14, 2012 by ealdwita 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Princess Serenity Posted August 15, 2012 #7 Share Posted August 15, 2012 My uncle had a great dane named Sebastian. He was the gentlest and kindest dog there ever was. I used to call him "The Gentle Gaint" because to a young girl he was a big dog. He's been gone for years now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taun Posted August 15, 2012 #8 Share Posted August 15, 2012 I am a huge fan of large dogs... but unfortunately it seems the larger the dog, the shorter the life span... It's just not fair... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mnemonix Posted August 15, 2012 #11 Share Posted August 15, 2012 Why? Because they're big dogs? I'm just not used to being around them I suppose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keel M. Posted August 15, 2012 #12 Share Posted August 15, 2012 Because they're big dogs? I'm just not used to being around them I suppose. They're almost always the gentle giants. Until they step on a toe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meryt-tetisheri Posted August 15, 2012 #13 Share Posted August 15, 2012 Because they're big dogs? I'm just not used to being around them I suppose. Generally speaking, large dogs are more confident, a lot less excitable or nervous than smaller dogs. They are less likely to snap or bite. Great Danes in particular are very gentle. I had more trouble with a tiny Maltese than with any of the 3 Danes we had. However, never show fear in front of any dog, even a Chihuahua! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
