Where's the "love" button?!? What a sweetheart. I certainly see the shepherd, not so much the Great Pyre now from a less "smiley" position and no reflection of coat or snout. Great Dane? Hmmmmm, not sure about that one either. Are his legs super long when standing? He's definitely a bigger beast than mine. Miss Kitty (Pyre) is about 85ish, and largest standard is 75. I'll attempt a picture if I can ever get them to hold still.

PS An ill-kept secret... I like dogs even more than orchids.

So I actually don’t see any Pyre but people who have them all say it is in there. I dunno

About the dane, his legs are super long. GSD have that slipping back and it flows down into the tail, Pete’s haunches are HIGHER than his shoulders. and his tail touches the ground.
He don’t make no kinda sense.

Also, if you look at him in profile he has the lower jaw and lips of the Dane.

He looks like he's made out of spare parts left over from other dogs!

What a nice boy Pete is! Thanks for sharing those pics. BTW, we do have a pet-specific section of the forum. It's a sub-topic in the Off Topic section, called "Pet Forum" -- because dogs, cats, and other pets are never totally off topic!
