[QUOTE="Rosielou, post: 1110054, member: 17488"] Thank you for the compliments everyone! Mine eats around 10+ cups a day because she is more active. If she was not, she wouldn't eat all that much. She's still pretty much a puppy, so she's still hyper. They won't mature fully until around 2, and eat less as they get older. Mine runs for a maximum of 45 minutes and she is done for the day and her energy is shot. I hear people who say they're the laziest dogs, and that's true for the most part. She leans on everything(mainly me!) and prefers to sit on me rather than the floor. Like MO_cows said, she backs up to me sitting on the couch or in a chair and will just sit on me anywhere. Her butt on my leg & front paws on the floor. I was laying on the rug one day and she sat on my ribs and I thought I was dying. I don't lay in the floor anymore. Honestly that's one of my worst fears before and after I got Lilah. I wouldn't trade her for anything, but sometimes I just wish I would have fallen in love with a different breed and a different dog who is expected to have a longer lifespan. Although, I do like to say that a Great Dane who will only live to be 10 will love more in those 10 years than another dog who lives to be 15 can in those 10 years. I have nothing against any other breed, I've owned plenty & plenty of mutts, but I don't think I can ever get away from this breed now. I will be devastated when she passes. I give my condolences to you, I hope you will mend soon. I pray for the person who decides to break into either mine or your house lol, because they would be goners! Mine is a huge baby but one night I took her outside to use the bathroom and something rattled in the leaves and she was full on attack mode. That's what I like about her.
