Bella, the Dog of the Day
Name: Bella
Age: Eight months old
Gender: Female Breed: Great Dane
Home: Boise, Idaho, USA
 
   Bella might possibly be The World's Largest Lap Dog - she has no idea just how big she is. She's eight months old now, and weighs in at a very solid 90 pounds so when she tries to cuddle up it can be a little strange! She's a very smart girl who graduated last week from training school, and even finished 3rd in class.

    When I mentioned that Bella doesn't know her size, I wasn't kidding - her favorite toys are ones that get lost in her giant mouth, and her best friend is a miniature dachshund. They make quite the pair on walks around the neighborhood! Bella's most precious possession is the first toy we gave her - a stuffed red lobster which she carries around and even sleeps with.

    Our only disappointment with our new princess was when we realized that they don't seem to sell the girly rhinestone collars for dogs her size. After searching everywhere, we finally decided to make some ourselves and they only add to the attention she already gets. With those long legs of hers, she gets quite a few comments!

    Bella has definitely become our oversized "baby" and we're very proud parents- and absolutely love to see her get excited and go into "buckin' bronco" mode (watch our for your toes, though!). She makes every day complete, and now we can't imagine life without her silly antics!
