Corgis and Great Danes?

We had ours done as a preventative, because I'd read so many horror stories about stomach flip, and didn't want to go through that. So we opted to go ahead when our guy was being neutered. That way he was already under (save money on anesth., bloodwork already done, etc.). It was NOT laproscopic, but was done with a laser rather than a knife. The estimate I'd been given was $750, but it actually came out to just over $500

, including meds...for the neuter and tacking. The actual plexy surgery charge was $250 (for just the straight-up surgery part...nothing else added on). I asked why I "came in under the estimate" and she said I may have been quoted the emergency price (which of course actually adds up to a LOT more when you figure in IVs and overnight stays, etc....can be well over $1000).

PS No comments needed from anyone about neutering at his age

It's what my vet and I decided together...

I have a euro/american Great Dane female will turn 2 in Feb. She stands 37 1/2 inches from the shoulders down. Her dad at 18 months was 38 1/2 Inches tall.
She was raised with min schnuzers and still thinks she is their size and lap dog.

~ stalking my son. She hates getting her pic taken.

To help stop them from getting the bloat ( stomach flipping) you can get their stomach tacted at time of spay or nueter. They also will not suck air as much when eating as the get full faster with a tac stomach. She has done great and I would not own a dog that carries the high risk of bloat with out getting it done.
It cost me a $150 more with the spay.

Now because the Corgi is bred for herding there is the nipping problem. Only Stubby does it. Manny and Missy do not. They were easy to break of doing that. Stubby just gets too excited and forgets.

they are a little dog that thinks it is the biggest dog.

My biggest complaint concerning them is Missy and Stubby get to messing around under our bed and unplug our select comfort mattress. Never know it until we want to change our setting.

Great Danes are a WONDERFUL breed of dog! They are very gentle and expressive. Ours is a female around 100 lbs, tall, and lean. She enjoys running on our land with our other dogs.

She is gentle with our cats as well as the rescue dogs/pups looking for homes.

No she is a Blue Harlequin
This a blue merle

this is the breeders site for anyone looking for very nice Danes. http://www.shafferdanes.com/index.htm

very nice Danes

Though this link may or may not produce good quality pet dogs. I am not sure that I would call them very nice danes unless you are strictly referring to their pet quality. It is disheartening that at one spot the author of the previous posted website says they sell "show quality" pups. Though the parents look nice enough in the photos, show quality they are not.

I do not know the people in this next link that I am offering. But one can easily compare the two different breeders from the two different sites, both breeding for pet quality while only one also breeds for Dane quality.
