I learned of a great story when we were in PA. My grandparents had a lot of different dogs over the years, mostly hunting breeds. Well, I guess one time my grandpa had brought home a Great Dane. His buddy had to get rid of it. Dog was around a year old, full grown, beautifully trained. Walked nice, heeled, you stopped, he stopped, etc. Someone had put a lot of time into him. Anyway, my grandpa and uncle went to pick him up. He took up the whole truck.
They brought him home and apparently my nana literally locked herself in the bathroom and refused to come out until he took the dog back! So he reluctantly had to. but it worked out because I think the original owner, friends daughter maybe?, had moved and could have him again and wa a happy to take him back. 
But I just love that story because it is hilarious and I had never heard it and it cracks me up thinking of my grandpa bringing this huge Great Dane home and my nana freaking out.
new favorite story. 
maybe I need glasses
