Life, the Dog of the Day
Name: Life
Age: Two years and eight months old
Gender: Male Breed: Great Dane
Home: Columbus, Ohio, USA
 
   Life is the best dog in the world. He has a lot of energy when he is outside and he likes to smile a lot. He is so smart that he knows what I am thinking just by looking at me. I don't walk him on a leash because he is totally obedient and has the best disposition. We use voice commands and hand signals. Life is a big lover. People get tense around him because he is a big dog, but once they meet him they fall in love with him. Life is also a great protector. He never fails to alert me to anything that is amiss. He sleeps with me and kept me warm through the cold winter. He likes to take me on long walks around OSU so he can meet all kinds of people, and sometimes other dogs. He is the first dog I have ever had. I got him when he was 8 weeks old and I would never give him up under any circumstances. People are not used to his color, which is called Blue Merle. People ask all the time if he is a greyhound or a Dalmatian, I don't get it. People think that having a bigger dog means more trouble, I think just the opposite, it means more love. I am always proud to walk him and knowing that he is the best dog in the world always puts a smile on my face.
