I was very, very thin and couldn't walk very well when I went to Auntie Jean at Scottish Great Dane Rescue. She looked after me for a little while with my favourite vet, Geoff Appleton. He operated on me and made my eyes better. am not totally in control of my very long legs at high speed. I do like to run very fast. I can outrun Auntie Lynn's Collie and my Lurcher friends down the park. They get tired much faster than I do. Mum says I have to be careful so I don't hurt my legs. I am not allowed to climb steep hills.
I went on the Waggy Walk in Glasgow to raise £65 for Dogs Trust. There were about 200 dogs there. I liked them all - even the Collie who tried to bite me.
I have a very long tail - it is much longer than normal. I have hurt it a few times and my mum put pipe lagging on it. I do NOT like it - I ate it.
My nickname at training class is Miss Whiplash - because I am so happy that my tail hurts people when I wag it so hard.
I am a VERY friendly girl. Sometimes people are scared when they see a big black girl running towards them but my mum is teaching me manners.
