Service Dog Blog: September 2015

This is Sir Lancelot. He was born July 28th, 2015 and he is a Blue Harlequin Great Dane. He is going to be my future Service Dog. As you all know, I currently have a Mantle Great Dane Service Dog named Adira Rose (Addy). What you don't know is that Addy is a temporary Service Dog to mind the gap while I found my long term Service Dog to replace my first Service Dog, Simba. Simba died of bone cancer almost a year ago now.. Addy has been my Service Dog for a little over a year, now. I originally bought Addy to add to my breeding program, but once I found out Simba couldn't work anymore, I started training Addy to replace Simba until I could get the right puppy to properly replace Simba. I have finally found that puppy. It took me about a year and 3 months, but I think I have found the perfect puppy to be able to be my Service Dog. He is an AKC Great Dane from Texas (I live in Illinois) and he is going to be huge. His mom is about 31-32 inches at the shoulders, but his dad is 36-37 inches at the shoulders. His dad is MASSIVE. Addy is currently 32 inches at the shoulders and almost a year and a half old. Sir Lancelot will definitely be bigger than Addy. His dad DWARFED Addy in size. I hope Lancelot turns out exactly like his sire. Lancelot is also a perfect color to breed with Addy. Since he is a male, he can breed without me having to worry about not having a Service Dog for many months out of the year, which wouldn't work for me. That's why I have to have a male. I also need a strong, tall male to be able to support me for those times that I need mobility support. Sir Lancelot will be trained for PTSD and Mobility and I cannot WAIT to see his progress.
