Do you own a Giant Breed? LOL

[HarleysMom]

Here is a list of possible ways to determine if, in fact, you do own a Giant breed or not.

If the sound of running water makes you jump up and yell, "OUTSIDE! "Your dog is a Giant breed . . .
If you tell your dog to sit, and he backs up until he finds a chair, your pet is a Giant Breed.
If it takes 3 people to get your dog on the scale at the vets, and your Vet has to coerce his employees with cleaning the dog room, in order to assist in helping. They know full well they will need a change of clothing after being slimed in this endeavor and . . . your dog is a Giant Breed.
If you walk your dog and everyone knows him by name, and you have no idea who these people are . . . You own a Giant Breed and your mailman has been slimed by your dog.
If you can carry on a conversation with a dog's muzzle firmly in your crotch . . . your dog is a giant breed.
If you take your dog with you in the winter instead of a shovel, and your dog is capable of towing a stuck vehicle out of a snow drift. . . you own a Giant Breed.
If your dog can hide an entire coke can (among other things) fully inside his lips and give you that innocent look that says, "What? I'm not eating anything!" It's not a fur-ball caught in his throat - it's the cat. Make him spit it out immediately and you own a Giant Breed.
If you carry a tape measure with you when shopping for a new vehicle . . . you own a large breed, if you purchase a 4-door pickup - sport utility vehicle - or any other large vehicle for transporting your dog - he's a Giant breed.
If you keep at least one color-coded "drool towel" in every room of your house. If every purse you own looks like a diaper bag to hold drool towels and snacks . . . you own a Giant Breed
If you are hiking with a friend who later suggests that you ought to have an environmental impact study done on your dog. Or your doggie disposal bag is a 30-gallon trash bag and it's full after one outing - you own a Giant Breed.
If visitors enter the house holding their privates protectively and wearing a rain coat - your dog is a Giant Breed and drools big slime wads.
If you take your dog for a ride and he rests his head on your arm, causing you to make random right turns, your dog is a Giant Breed.
If you have given up on water dishes and you just use the bathtub, your dog is a Giant Breed.
If you have to move over when brushing your teeth because your dog wants a drink . . . you need your own bathroom and you own a Giant Breed.
If while stopped at a stop light, everyone stares as your car rocks back and forth because the dog is panting out the window, you have a compact car and you own a Giant Breed - you should have taken a tape measure with you car shopping.
If you avoid the dogs on your way out the door, so they won't smear your makeup or slime your outfit - you own a Giant breed.
If you've learned to force a smile when asked, "do you have a saddle for that thing?" You own a Giant Breed.
If the monthly dog budget exceeds your home mortgage payment, you own a Giant Breed.
If your veterinarian has been able to put in a swimming pool, build a large home, buy jet skis and a personal plane, you own a Giant Breed.
If you have had to train your dog not to lick dishes, and the dishes are in the sink . . . You own a Giant Breed.
If the donuts you put on top of the refrigerator are gone when you get home and your dog has powdered sugar on his nose, you need to find a hardware store and get those child proof locks for ALL of your cabinets - and you own a Giant Breed.
If your dog can see what you're cooking, and he tries to assist you in the preparation by licking the spoon - you own a Giant Breed.
If ALL of the delivery people tell you to meet them at the end of the driveway - Your dog is a Giant Breed that drools a lot, commonly known as slime.
If you purchase a large screen TV and you still can't see the program when he stands in front of the television - try a ceiling mount and yes you own a Giant Breed.
If the first warm days brings out shampoo and the hose to give your dog a bath outside - to avoid the increase of flood insurance on your home - yes you own a Giant Breed.

If you answered yes to any of the above questions - Then, yes - a Giant Breed owns you, and you too have my sympathies.

ROFLOL!!! That is so cute and funny. Gosh, I don't own a giant breed. I just have a little Doberman Pinscher and some of those things I can even relate to. I can only imagine the horrors of a giant breed. LOL.

Thanks for sharing that cute thing.

[britishbandit]

OMG that is SOOOO FUNNY......LMAO....and SO TRUE!!
There were only a couple that didn't apply to my "beasts"...haha.

[bigdoglover]

THat was great!! Elite can rest her chin comfortably on the kitchen counter and table while either standing or sitting. It's too funny...and the towel part...so true!!

[Mellie]

Thanks for that! I feel like it is talking about my Saint.

[Want a Doberman]

LOL that was good...now I know what to expect when I get my great dane! uh-oh....

[Carrie]

Elite can rest her chin comfortably on the kitchen counter and table while either standing or sitting. It's too funny

How tall is Elite at the withers? Lyric is 29" and rests his chin too and looks up at me and watches me put my make up on by way of the mirror. LOL. In the kitchen he does it too, but I half heartedly discourage it. I mean, I already get a little dog hair in whatever I'm cooking, so at least can we please keep out the Dobergerms? Of course, he has tight lips, no slobber from this boy. LOL..... He's like a kid...."watcha doin'?" LOL. And he's not even a giant breed....OMG...I can only imagine.

[annie_so_pink]

LOL Wesley is only 50lbs and yet, I answerd yes to some of those questions! Evidently, Wesley is a giant breed!!!! LOL

[Mellie]

Carrie! I thought I was the only one that just accepted my dinner will always come with a few dog hairs. Yum! That is too funny.

[Carrie]

LOL Mellie. I bet most dog owners have dog hair in places they'd rather not admit. I mean...I'm almost a neat freak, keep a fairly clean house, and still....they stick to things by way of static electricity. Did you ever notice that? Like on the metal things....stove. No matter how many times I wipe off the stove, there's that one little 1/8" hair still there. OH! It's my sponge. That's the problem. LOL. And I have short coated dogs. Oh well.....

[RobHedrick]

Ahaha! That was funny. Thanks for sharing. LOL.

[fireworksinjuly]

My boys do fit a few of them, Bud fits most of the drool ones...

Mellie...Carrie.... I know how you feel. But rather then the 1/8" hair mine are about 4-5 inches long and very white!
When we went to Hawaii I washed clothes then packed them in brand new suit cases...we still had Kino hair with us in Hawaii.

I have to wear black pants to work for now (until I start the new one). And they are always covered in white dog hair.

[Kris]

That made me laugh and think"haha! It's not just me" about a few of them.

[Steve #1]

It's a little scary how many of these apply.

You mean to tell me that it isnt normal to have dog hair in the food
We always assumed that it was natural herbs and spices that little extra that made our food better.

Harleys mom I LOVED that description.
