You might be a Great Dane Owner if...

1. Windex takes on a whole new meaning! ( You'd be surprised how high the drool gets on the back door!)

2. It takes only seconds for your dog to dig a hole big enough to put a car in!

3. Your cats prefer to eat their meals on top of the fridge.

4. You buy "Indestructible" dog toys every couple of months. (I've learned to laugh when I read the labels.)

5. The term lap dog takes on a whole new meaning!

6. It takes three attendants to lift your dog onto the vet table, but only if he is cooperating. (It's really quite funny when they have to trim his nails.)

7. Your garbage man refuses to pick up your garbage. (Ok this one is so true. Our neighbor has pick up service and the man, who is a huge black guy, runs to get the neighbors garbage an leaps into the truck. Also he no longer drives down and turns around in the cul de sac but puts the truck in reverse and backs down the street! haha)

8. When buying a vehicle your choices are only limited to extra large suvs or trucks, no matter how many kids you have!

9. You have a large screen television and still cant see it when the dog stands in front of it.

10. You have special towels to wipe his mouth after drinking water. (Yes we do!)

11. You have to endure the same comments and questions from everyone who meets him all while smiling with a response...How much does he eat?...You ought to buy a saddle for him!...Why didn't you buy a horse?Who's walking who?(The list goes on and it SO ANNOYING!)

12. You toss a ball and cringe when he almost hits head on the doorway!

13. You tell your dog to sit and he backs up until he finds a chair. (It's funny how this is true for all of them!)

14. You train your dog not to lick the dishes, the dishes are in the sink.

15. Ever knick knack in your house lies above the 5 foot mark.

16. Your dog has his own sofa otherwise you would have no place to sit.

17. You become friends with the person you purchase your dog food from because despite the fact you buy giant bags, you are still there every month. And you have single handily paid for their new car. :)

18. When walking your dog causes "little dog" owners to turn pale, sweaty, and pick up their dogs and run away.

19. Friends no longer stop by without advanced notice.

20. Your dog can hold an entire roll of socks and other things in the folds of his lips and still look at you with his head cocked in a look that says, "What? I'm not eating anything."
