Sorry to hear this John. It’s bloody hard when the time comes, but you know he’s in a better place.
Instead of keeping him going for yourself, you’ve put his quality of life first.
He’ll always be in your life, little things will remind you of Billy at the most unexpected times. Cherish the good times.
Sorry to hear, this,TD. They're part of your family. RIP, Billy.
Condolences John Mate, R.I.P Billy Boy [emoji3590]

Yes, a flashback to happier days in 2012 when I was still happily married with Furkids. The ex wife used to also run Great Dame rescue NSW so we had a few danes , sadly Scooby signed his own warrant though, when he bit the ex wife's new boyfriend on the arse while he was shagging her ( while I was away on a Middle East deployment in 2014) Clearly the divorce followed. (i did not find out about the all the details until a year later after she had been paid out and moved out).Quote:

They are kind of like cats in a way. In the warmer months they will climb all over me and stalk me in the yard when they are hungry, but once you have fed them, they are not interested in you again until they are hungry again.
Here's a picture of our dog Scout at 12 months.

Word of warning, tucker wise [emoji51]
Haven’t fed any of our faithful pooch’s over the years ‘PAL’ tin cans for a very long time....disastrous ramifications [emoji23]
Usually a mix of quality loaf or meat scraps topped up with Supercoat suitable breed dry food these days with success[emoji106][emoji106]
Local IGA was out of Supercoat ‘Large Breed’ last week so cheapskated with a bag of ‘PAL’ dry instead.
Let’s just say I may need to replace the GQ utes interior linings tomorrow as they are horribly stench impregnated with old Pal/Mates arse odour now.......never again buying anything PAL [emoji2961]

Back in the Day when life was still Good, the wife (now ex wife) used to run Great Dane Rescue NSW, and we had afew Danes of our own, plus the Boxer, and a managary of rescue Danes and Dane Crosses over the years.
Now the staple for their diet was Blackhawk Kibble grain free(so we alternated the lamb and rice, chicken and rice, Fish and Potato...they would not touch the kangaroo ...the rescies did, ours were too fussy). There are different varieties for puppy, adult, working dog and dogs needing diets to loose lard.
https://www.petcircle.com.au/black-hawk
The trick with this is to get a really decent 25 Kg drum with an air tight lid, that keeps the kibble crunchy and fresh for 30 days.
We would also supplement with turkey wings, thighs and drumsticks (local butcher would put some aside in bulk for 3 bux a kg for us), chicken frames and chicken wings (all uncooked, as cooked bones splinter and shatter and are no good for doggy digestion system) and marrow bones.
They never got the taste for roo or bunny, so we kept it on what they would eat and kept them healthy with shiny coats.
Now the trick is to get a great scoop (a diagonally cut in half 29 liter square drum with a long handle on it worked here) and long shovel, a 63 liter bunnings bin with lid and top quality glad garden bags (do not skimp on bag quality otherwise bin day when transplanting the baggy to the big bi is a tormenting experience). Once a day mine sweeping and clearance into the baggy lined bin, and sorted.
Plus keeping plastic shopping bags for poop patrol when doing walkies. Just passing on these tips as the dog rocks here were industrial scale:toot:

Haha he really does not stop, and I promise you, it's not for lack of training, have spent a decent chunk of good coin trying to train him up, he is just extremely selective when he chooses to utilise that training [emoji35]
Still, a great boy around kids, extremely protective of family, less of land, which I'm ok with. I 100% trust him around my kids and that is all that matters. He will slow down the older he gets, and the kids will get bigger and keep his over active personality amused, it will all work out.http://www.nissanpatrol.com.au/forum...2021/07/22.jpghttp://www.nissanpatrol.com.au/forum...2021/07/23.jpghttp://www.nissanpatrol.com.au/forum...2021/07/24.jpg

Our new family member, renamed her "CHOOKIE", was Cyprus??? American Bulldog, 2YR rescue, had her a week or so, still wearing the protective vest from the Vet post de-sexing. She's 40 kg, gentle as a kitten, came from a family with a young child, but timid and a vocal growler so needs a bit of socialisation and confidence. Instantly protective of the house and anyone inside it, takes about 10 minutes to get her used to a new person, so her size and demeanor on first greeting can be a bit intimidating. Previous owners are moving back to NZ and can't take her.Attachment 84421Attachment 84422Attachment 84423

Foolishly I gave him some reprieve Friday night from his enormous plastic cone of shame by removing it and letting him sleep off the good Vet drugs [emoji23]
Awoke early Saturday to a bed spread full of self removed staples and dog goo [emoji51]

Well sad and unexpected update. The wife was sitting on the edge with Chookie as she is a very powerful dog and came to us with some engrained character traits that were a lot to handle. We decided to visit my daughter in Bruthen and took Chookie down there, and they have an aging great dane who is the gentle mouse of the world. We introduced them to each other between a chicken wire fence and it was wagging and squealing from both sides, so brought together for the greet, and within 15 secs Chookie had the old bloke by the throat and then tore a piece from his ear by the time I could separate them. The great dane was bleeding like a pig, so rushed into Vet/surgery and has returned home with two open gashes and drains in his neck and a chunk missing from the ear. Whatever was said between those two was instant dislike and savagery, so its a side of her we just cant manage. We have contacted the rescue agency and a new home is being found for her now. Breaks my heart to be honest, as her other sides are sweet and gentle/playful, and the barking and growling can be resolved. I think she has been abused during her upbringing from a pup and she needs some specialist attention to correct this i am sure. Its going to be hard handing her over I can assure you, but you just can't tell what baggage is going to come with a rescue, and this is our third, but nothing ever like this.
