Description: Bubba owner was not able to keep him due to moving to a small apartment. Bubba is sweet and well socialized. He is a big boy and was raised with a small dog. Below is Bubba's description by his previous owner:
Bubba is a mixed breed of-Labrador, German Shephard and Great Dane. He is two years old as of this past February 2013 and about 81 pounds. We would like to find a loving home with large spaces where he can run and play, socialize etc. He has the most gentle and kind spirit. He loves everybody. He enjoys playing with other dogs and really loves chasing squirrels. Actually, he is not a bad tree climber :-). He is house broken and listens to commands pretty well. He is a people dog. He loves to be loved and to give love. Oh and he loves to bury his bones. and believe me, he remembers exactly where he buried it and later on goes to find it. He is a wonderful family dog.
*** According to dogbreedinfo.com, the history of Great Danes go way back. Incised on some Greek money dating back to 36 B.C. is the image of a dog very similar to the Great Dane of today. The Great Dane is known as the "Apollo of all dogs." In 407 A.D. German Gaul and part of Italy and Spain were invaded by an Asiatic people (the Alans) who brought with them powerful mastiff-like dogs. In Germany especially, where these magnificent animals capable of overcoming bears and wild boars were much admired, a process of selective breeding was begun. The dogs were crossed with Irish Greyhounds, and the issue was the beautiful, large, thin, agile dog known today as the Great Dane. Despite the fact that they are called Danes in English, these dogs have nothing to do with Denmark. The Great Dane is a gentle giant. Dignified, kind, sweet and affectionate, it is playful and patient with children. It loves everyone and needs to be around people. The Great Dane does not bark much and only becomes aggressive when the circumstances require it. A steady dog, responsible and dependable. Brave and loyal, it is a good watchdog. They need plenty of exercise - at least a good walk a day. The expected life-span is about 10 years, although some live 12-13.
