Introducing.... Miss Callie!


Callie is a 10 week old Great Dane puppy. We bought her from a breeder all the way in Missouri! Lucky for us, we got a good deal =) Tomorrow we bring home this little rascal and start having all the fun (and work...).

Great Danes are known for their size. But there really is more to them! While they are lazy indoors, they are great playmates outside. While they are large and hardy, they are extremely sensitive. They are full of contradictions! Our family chose this breed because we wanted a guard dog that was more docile, a dog that would be friendly towards strangers but could protect us if needed, and we needed a breed that got along with cats. Plus, Great Danes are "Velcro" dogs which means every second of the day they want to be with you. Which works out GREAT because we don't want a dog that will sit at home, we want one that'll come with us wherever we go! So far we're excited because many of our favorite restaurants have patios outside that allow dogs. Woot woot! Another bonus, they don't usually have separation anxiety so we can leave her home while we're at work and school and not have to worry about her at all.

There are more reasons why we chose her, like her sweet personality and cute face, but that's the base of it all. I can't wait to see where this adventure takes us!
