Birthday Poem to my Puppies...
|
Before you were a twinkle in your mama's eye
Before you were the dream of a breeder's heart
I knew that golden would be your color
....true would be your spirit
....kind would be your barks
....loyal would be your hearts
....loving would just be your ways
Now has past a year since your birth
....You stand proud in your respective homes
....Your golden color shines in and out of the ring
....Your soft spirit and gentle barks and loving
hearts and all your special ways are seen by all
who know what a Great Dane is meant to be.
--Penny Mikeman--

Jackson is now going to try his hand at handling the danes in the ring
Here he is with our Veteran "Dani"
Our children are an important part of how we rear our puppies & dogs. They are hands on and help in every aspect of socialization for the entire litter, sire, dam and all our danes. We believe it is important for dogs to respect children and children to respect dogs.
Here is my son, Ross who is 8 years old holding "Moose" while mama, Sabrina naps and the other 2 pups nurse. And a few minutes later Jackson's leg makes a good pillow for momma while he holds "Gus" and the brindles chow down.
Magnum with Jackson & Ross
Magnum was 16 weeks
Jackson was almost 5
Ross was 3.
Jackson, Morgan with niece Charlee & Ross 1997
And here is Ross at age 4 stacking Pinki age 2 (1997). At first Pinki was like "who's this short person stacking me, then the professionalism in both Ross & Pinki shine through in picture 2.
I firmly believe that training for kids & dogs BOTH to be well acclimated to one another must be done at an early age. I for one get totally annoyed at people who ALLOW their children to be frightened of dogs in general. My dogs are gentle and when approached with kindness will return the gesture.
Then here we are staying home on Father's Day 2001:
Magnum gets Father's Day left overs and a special E-card from son, Armani.
