Kate the Great Dane
Puppy
Breed: Great Dane
Kate's mom says: Kate is one clever four-legged "fur daughter." Sometimes she comes across as being sort of slow, however she has methods to her madness. In the morning before she'll go outside, she'll look at me and then flatten herself out on the floor for her "rubbins." That's what we dubbed her full-body massage. We're not sure how this started, but she won't go outside until she's been massaged. To make sure Kate was good with having her feet handled, I started trimming her toenails very early, at three months. Then I'd file the rough edges with my emery board. Now when I file my own nails, she sits and gives me her paws to be filed as well.

Oh what a beauty! Actually, she sounds very smart an certainly knows what she wants! Kate the Great! I love the pic of her in profile-- she looks very stunning and she is so good having her nails done-- she likes to be pampered! The last pic is just great- I love that beautiful face. She looks so tall and lean and regal in the 7th pic- she is truely a beautiful dog.
Her head looks sorta small! Hello gangly stage Kate!
It happens to be that she has my name, and I couldn't be anymore happy. she's friggin' adorable! I want to hug her!

oh god its killin me she's so cute! such a elegant lady she is! with the most adorable ears and expressive eyes...can i have her? lol, just kidding :)
Kate, you're such a beautiful girl!!! I want a Great Dane at some point. Big dogs are the best (we have a St Bernard and 2 Great Pyrenees). In our house "rubbins" are "lovins" and our puppies require them at almost all times. They are quite spoiled. All great dogs are!!! You are such a wonderful snuggly baby girl!!!!!
Kate is a beautiful girl! I love uncropped ears on a Great Dane and hers are certainly spectacular! I also love that she asks to have her nails filed. I wish our dogs would do that!
Kate's a beautiful and smart young diva! I have a niece who has a four-month-old Dane puppy, and she is having a very hard time keeping weight on him. Would you mind writing to me privately so I could ask you some questions? (Click on my member name to send me a message.) Thanks so much!
Kate is tremendous!!! She looks as though her ears are quite expressive. Must be fun to watch! I would give her rubbins' any ol' time...that could take a while.
All of you with puppies out there should use Kate's Mom's tip about trimming nails early. Kate's Mom is so smart!! I wish I had done that, then my dog wouldn't have torn his toe nail. He's better now but I sure couldn't file them!
Kate, you are adorable! Such a big puppy should get more biscuits!

Rubbins!!!!...lol...too cute,I love it!!...a beautiful girl who will grow into a beautiful lady! Wishing you many many years of happiness together!!
Oh my, what a beautiful girl. I just want to hug her. She has the kind of face that can be silly and goofy one minute and beautifully regal the next. I bet she keeps you busy (and happy). Wishing you many, many years together.
She is absolutely beautiful and good on you for not having her ears clipped, her floppy ears make her that much more loveable.
Kate- you are one precious pup! My girl Nala likes her nail "done" as well. She prefers a light pink glittery polish. I wish you many many years with your sweet baby.
I *love* the language that we create in talking to our pups! [url=http://dailypuppy.co m/index...]India[/url] gets "walkies", carries around her "lovey", takes "bafs" (reluctantly), and gets "kibbles". (Not all original language, clearly, but also not English :-)
Kate is an enormously lovely pup!

I love the ears- thank you for not cropping. She is truly a beauty- sensitive, regal and powerful. What a combination!
What a gorgeous girl! She looks so very soft and velvety -- particularly her ears! Give her some lovin' and rubbin' from me. What a pretty pretty girl!
What a beautiful girl! I think what makes her so loveable is how she can look totally regal in one photo and then like a silly puppy in the next one! I just love her "mask" and her big ol' paws!!!!
Kate is absolutely adorable. I would love to wrap my arms around her neck & plant kisses on her nose. Danes are great family members & I hope some day to be able to have a Dane in mine. Enjoy all the years of love she has to give.
love her-- don't crop the ears and I would laugh every time she wanted to have her nails filed--that is great.
OOOOooooo!!!!!!!!!!! She's so sweet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What unusual ears, though. She looks a lot like my Lab-Dane (we think) mix, Murphy. I'm sure he would be mooning over her if he saw her. Hooray for not cropping the ears!!!! Murphy gets "rubbins" too, although we call it "a ruffle" because his fur sticks up! It's great for cheering him up when he's "gwumpy!"
Kate, you are adorable in both your silly and regal poses. Kate's mom, thank you for not cropping those gorgeous ears. Hugs and kisses.
We too had a fur person called Champers. He was a Great Dane and when he passed away, at the age of 10 years, part of us went with him.
Everyone told us that dogs were afraid of hoovers. They had not met Champers. We had to lift his tail to vacuum around him, and he LOVED to have the brush part gently brushing his back. I would say that they are uniquely loveable fur people.
I so envy you with your fur daughter. She is adorable.

Oh thanks GOODNESS you did crop the ears! I luvvvvv big flompy great dane ears. She's a beauty!
Excuse me-- thank goodness you did **NOT** crop the ears :-) There is no reason to change the beauty that nature made!
She reminds of the movie The Ugly Daschund! She's too beautiful! Better watch out though, next thing, she'll be wanting those nails painted!
The very first thing I thought before seeing the comments is I LOVE HER EARS! They are so expressive and soft and perfect for her face. Thank you for leaving them alone. They make her extremely beautiful!
Yes, I too want to congratulate you on your decision to not crop the ears. If God didn't want big floppy ears, he wouldn't have made them! I work in an animal hospital that is against ear cropping, but in the past I've seen the procedure and after-effects first hand. Its just too much pain and uncomfort to put an animal through for nothing! ...And just look how beautiful she is with those ears!
I think Kate is stunning in her beauty and intelect. I love the picture where she is laying with her stukked dane and yes getting her nails filed lol!!!! Give Kate hugs and Kisses from me!!!!
[color=blue]AWWWWWWWWWW! Kate is stunning. What a beautiful, precious face...looking at her brought tears to my eyes because of the love I have for dogs...all dogs; all breeds. I've never had a Great Dane but love them. Our home is way too small for a Dane but had I the room, I would have one. I saw a lady at my vets office one day that had a Harlequin Great Dane; I never realized how large a dog they get to be. Her dog looked like a pony next to her!
I just fell in love with Kate when I saw her pics...she is a very beautiful girl. Give that sweet baby big hugs and kisses for her Aunty in New York![/color]

What a cutie! She looks like she's going to be huge! And I LOVE the coloring on her face - it looks like she stuck her nose in a can of black paint :) I want to run and play with her!
DANES RULE!!!! My precious baby Tank passed away four years ago and we still miss him. I wish you many happy healthy years with Kate!
She is just lovely. I'm so glad you did not crop her ears. I have a 7 year old great dane named Charlie who is the love of my life. He is also a fawn and has been the greatest joy of my life.
What a beautiful, sweet face! Love those floppy, silky ears. Give her some extra "rubbins" from me today! :)
Your Kate is really a lovely Dane Baby. Very clever indeed!!! I also have a Kate, a blue Dane, 5.10 yrs old, who is quite clever also. I love, love, love my Kate and I love your Kate too. Danes are so beautiful and large and loving. My Kate never learned the grace of having her nails done. I tried and tried but she still won't allow anyone to touch her "tootsies" because of a bad scare at a 'Petsmart' in Wilmington, NC experience with a groomer.
Your baby is great & I would love to hug her. Miss Katie sends hugs to her also.
Elizabeth & Miss Katie=O)

Kate is absolutely gorgeous! I too like her floppy ears. Her paws are jagnormous!!! Give 'er lots of rubbins from CA!
There is something seriously wrong with a person who does not go gaga over a great dane puppy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And a doggie that likes a pedicure? Well, I just can't say enough about that.

Kate is so beautiful!!! Her mannerism regarding "rubbins" and nail filing is extremely cute. She makes you want to run out and own a Great Dane.
what a cutie patootie! I have a german shepherd, that loves plastic bottles! it's mher favorite toy...
have you given any thought to painting her nails. she would look great wirh a sparkly pink polish
What a funny dog! I loved the pictures with the water bottle, and the look on her face when she was getting her nails filled, was priceless. She is a pampered pooch for sure! 11 buiscuits for humor and cuteness!
Now I know why the English aristocracy had Danes. So beautiful and Kate is no exception. And that black muzzle just adds to her gracious poise look.
As to the body massage and nail situation, Kate, tell Mom you want a full-day at the spa. I see seaweed wraps in your future!

What a beautiful baby! And such a little miss! I love that she gets manicures on demand...what a great gal!
Don't You Dare crop those ears !!! To me, personally, Big Dogs just seem to be better. Maybe it's the way their paws look too big for their legs. I'm not sure.
She is gorgeous. Her face so beautiful. I thought it was so cute what you said about doing your toe nail together. Im sure you put some nice pink polish on them when your done. In her eye's you can see that she is brilliant. You can tell she is a female because she looks so eligant. Good Luck! I wish you many years of LOVE and Fun. Patty
Also she is so much more beautiful without her ears cropped. Thankyou for not partaking in this cruel practice.
I love pic 7 & 8. She is sooo regal. Kate is beautiful. I'm very glad you didn't crop her ears.
Oh, I have a 3-year-old Harly Dane, and Kate makes me miss his puppy stage. But truthfully, Kate is quite dignified, and Murray was always a bit of a a dopey boy!
Thanks for all the nice comments on Kate, aka Katie, Sweet Girl, Mom's Baby Girl, etc. etc. She is spoiled indeed! And we couldn't love her more.... ---Kate's mom---
Wow.....what a truly gorgeous specimen! I do think that she is the epitome of what a healthy, lovely great dane is supposed to look like.
Aww, I love great danes. Personally I want one with a harlequin pattern. But Kate it oh-so cute as well.
Kate the great is gorgeous! Quite a stunning face. Love the photo of her with the bottled water & having her nails filed. Who doesn't know a girl without a manicured "paw" clutching a bottle of water? LOL, I'm guilty of it as well. Kate is so sweet and photogenic. Love the big puppies [especially Great Danes]. They're little lap dogs trapped in a big dog's body. I could hug her & give tummy rubs all the time.
:-}
:-}
wow she has gotta be part horse! just kidding... this breed never fails to amaze me! i love when they are puppies because they are so clumsy!!!! enjoy!
She's such a cutie !
I lost my beloved Leo last week. Passed away of renal failure.
I coudn't go on without a Dane... Got myself a girl, Maggie.
Just can"t say no to those big blue eyes !
Danes are wonderful with children and get along so well with others pets (as we do at home with Charlotte the Golden and Pantoufle the Mini Schnauzer)
Oups, I forgot. You might try the Dremel Minimite to do Kate's nails.
You put a sanding tool on it and it does wonders. Especially when the dog is older and much bigger. Easier on your back too !
Enjoy your time with Kate.
Danes are angels.
