Kayman, the Great Dane!

Kayman.
Kayman was born on Feb. 26 2012.  I got lucky when looking for a Great Dane because all I was finding were pups that were anywhere from $500 to $1000.  I checked out all sorts of kennels and different adoption websites looking for a pure breed.  At last someone contacted my craigslist add in reference to me wanting a pure breed Great Dane.  They had 2 pups left and needed to get rid of them before they got much older.  I offered my price and they accepted it...well under what I was expecting!  I drove to a farm that had 5  adult Great Dane's about 45 min away.  The mother came up barking her head off and I about turned around and headed back home...then the dad came to the other side of the door.  He weighed 165 lbs. and was 7 years old. He was huge!  Once I got out of the van they immediately gave me a sniff down and were the most friendly dogs I had ever met!  Kayman came running up to me right away and I knew which one I had to take.  I really liked the spotted one but Kayman's black and white spots were much prettier! Here are some pictures to detail him growing up and getting used to some special additions to the mix!  The boys, especially Brayden, have fallen in love with having the woof woof around!  Kayman has responded amazing towards the boys!  Thanks for checking this out...there are some pictures of the boys to make everyone happy! Sorry for so many pictures!
By the way, we have joined Instagram so that is probably why there are not as many posts here on our blog!

Brayden comparing paws

He likes to sit indian/human style sometimes


He sort of fits in the SUV

Picture time!  

Brayden's favorite playmate besides Cooper

Here, eat a stick!  

Im guarding them with all my life! 

I'll just lay here while you trample me

Ok, enough already

We all STILL fit in the SUV

Smell the flowers!  

Im lazy!  

Whenever the window is down...My head is out!

My new dog house!  It's a bit small

Traveled to see mom in Illinois

Met mom for the first time

Uncle Chet tagged along

This is where I first learned how to play catch

I was a little less than 130 lbs. then

Helping mom n dad move in!

Look how big I am now!  
Sign reads: No Horses On Bridge


I love walking along the bridge!  

Im extremely lazy sometimes!

I have 2 pretty good friends to keep me busy

These guys always pester me! 

Im smiling!

You aint going anywhere!

Dad made my dog house look hideous! 

I guess I have to pose

On the bridge again

I got this

Need a saddle?
