Finny celebrated his first birthday yesterday! He had a stomach bug in January and didn’t put on any weight, but he’s sitting at 130 pounds right now and he’s finally feeling better. He’s a water dog and absolutely loves chasing leaves in the river & going to the swimming pool. He still loves his people and thinks everyone who visits our house is his new BFF. He is super smart but so stubborn! We’ve ramped up the training since he can rest his head on the bar-height kitchen counter and get into everything. We love our big goof to pieces!  Chilling in the bathroom while I get ready for the day. I fit between his front leg and the bathroom cabinet. 😆  His “pleeeeeeeeease pet me” face. ❤️  His spotted nose is still my favorite. ❤️  He likes to rest his chin on the kitchen counter and get head rubs.  Our cow-horse in the river, running around like a lunatic and loving every second of it.  Enjoying a sit on the couch… but mostly on a kid. 😂  Reminding me that he would like 1000% more attention today and every day.  I call this his “match.com profile picture”. 🤣  Our water loving boy in the lagoon with a stick. We were at a restaurant and he entertained the other guests for 15 minutes by running through the water and acting like the happiest dog ever. A few comments we’ve heard lately when we take him into public: “That’s a BIIIIG dog”… usually said by someone driving and shouted out the car window. “Do you have a saddle for your horse?” “How much does he eat?” “Oh wow, you have a beautiful dalmatian!” “Is he a Great Dane mixed with a Dalmatian?” (No….) “I bet he 💩 a lot” (yes… yes, he does. 😆) “Did you know he would get this big?” (Yes, we did!) Finny is quite the celebrity in our town and he loves all the attention he gets! Thank you for following Finn over the past 10 months. He is a joy (and so much work!) and absolutely spoiled rotten. ❤️ |

He's so very handsome, and couldn't be more opposite to my tiny Jack Russell Terrorist who was named Finnegan. I also bet you don't call him him Finny Mini. 😁

No, we don’t call Him that but I love the nickname for a small pup! He is Finnegan, Finn, Finny, Finny-boo, Big Goof, Cow-Horse, and Finn-Finn.  If I’m annoyed with him, he gets Velociraptor and “you pain in the ass…” 😆 |

But also Finn, Finny, Finny Boo, Finny McFinnfinn, and Finnegan Begin Again. I miss him. |

Such a cute pupper! My DD just melted. She would love to cuddle him. Although he out weighs her by a good 20 pounds (and he's probably taller than she is, LOL)

Although he out weighs her by a good 20 pounds (and he's probably taller than she is, LOL) He’s over 6’ tall when standing on his back legs. I’m 5’7” and he towers over me! Finny would love to nose boop your daughter then sit on her lap. 😊 |

Enjoy your harlequin DANE! |

He is beautiful! My brother's third great dane looked just like yours!
He is so photogenic! Your pictures are beautiful!
Non dog related question - what is the paint color in your bathroom and kitchen? I need to repaint and want a light color with some beige or grey!

Wow, he is a beauty. But I truly can't imagine having a 130 pound toddler. LOL I love your posts about him, though.

I have an extra can of paint in the garage and I’ll check the name when I get home! It’s a nice, warm gray. |
