See if that works

Wow, she's a monster! I love it. I'm guessing she's a jumbo pekin?

She may be. They were pet store ducks the kids picked out. I keep looking through pictures i have already and in none can you really see her size well. In a couple she looks the same size as the runner and I know she is way bigger than him.

Are you sure she's not a mutant cross with a goose? LOL WOW! She's bigger than my dog! 

At the very least, wipe the poop off your feet before getting in the car.

Lol, that just means your dog is too small... Kidding. I wondered if you could possibly cross a goose and a duck to get one that size myself. And I thought holding my pekin was tough. She's big for her breed, but this girl is...

1 husband, 1 son, 1 daughter, 1 cat, 3 dogs, 6 ducks, 7 turkeys, too many chickens of all ages and stages, and bunches of fish... Do you wonder why I'm nutts?

No....it means my dogs are just wusses.
One is a 70 lb black lab border collie mix. The other is a 24 lb border collie greyhound mix. She's tall but skinny and energetic.
When we were chasing them earlier to contain them in the duck pen I hollered at my kid to grab her...the big dog looked at me, I swear she smiled, then calmly raised her paw and smacked the duck to the ground and held her there with a paw in the middle of the pekins back.
I was trying not to laugh but that dog was so proud of herself, even if it was only about 5 seconds she held her down.
