Meet Our own deaf
Dane  Ambassador
Lilly
Adopted 9/30/06 !!
Just an update on Molly (formally Lilly) As of the 30th of September we celebrated having her for a year.  Again she is my heart.  We did try a 2 year old hearing female dane but after 10 days it was obious that Molly is to be an only child at least in her size.  The other dane was very food aggresive and jumped Molly from behind so of course Molly got the brunt on it.  So we returned the hearing dane and Molly was more than happy to have the house to herself.  She does tolerate the Macaw better and I don't worry about the 2 unsupervised.  She is definately a mommies girl, and at my feet no matter where I go.  Again she is wonderful and we love her dearly, she was worth the time and drive to pick her up (16 hours).  She is quiet the hit everywhere we go.  She had her first boat ride to check crab pots everyone loved her life vest.  Thank you so much for letting us adopt her.  Lori.

Here is a recent picture of Molly and me.  She is a wonderful babysitter for my great niece who is 4.5 years old.  She is still just a mommy's girl and I hope that never changes a little selfish on my part but she is my heart.  She is able to graise at Joes (MaCaw) food without having to dodge him when he is on top of his cage, but she won't eat the fruit and nuts in her own bowl.  She is always waiting for me when I get home and definately knows what days are my days off, she knows if I'm going in the truck so is she.  Again thanks so much.

Lori

Lilly was surrendered to us by her owners, a family that loved her. They were moving to TX just needed someone to take care of Lilly until they found a home down there. We agreed to take her and hold her for 90 days, so they could come back and get her after they were set up. Unfortunately things did not go as they had hoped, and they are not going to be able to come back and get her. These people really did love Lilly to bits, and you can tell they did an excellent job with her. She is a real princess, with a lot of attitude, who talks up a storm. But she is also very well behaved and a real love bug. Pretty much her only bad habit is getting into the trash cans in the house and chewing up Kleenex, paper towels, and such. She is house broken, and does just fine in the house, though without a comfy bed, like most Danes, she will get on the furniture. She likes to sleep in the bed with you, and will cuddle if you let her, but she is also happy to sleep down at the foot of the bed. So far all the dogs here have liked her. IN fact she has an uncanny ability to make friends even with those dogs whose social skills are not good. She has been able to make friends and play with pretty much everyone, even Tug, and that is saying something!

We spoke to her old owners in TX and they have authorized us to place Lilly, as they are not able to come get her and they would rather see her settled in a good loving home, so she can get on with her life.

"I like dogs better [than people]. They give you unconditional love. They either lick your face or bite you, but you always know where they're coming from. With people, you never know which ones will bite. The difference between dogs and men is that you know where dogs sleep at night." - Greg Louganis
