Another important thing for us with a "big" dog (not nearly as big as a Great Dane, but still a large breed) was getting a food dish that was elevated so she didn't have to bend down to eat it. That can prevent bloat, which can be dangerous for dogs. <br /><br />Isn't it funny how some of the biggest breeds, who you'd think would need a ton of exercise (Great Danes, Greyhounds) are also some of the laziest? hehe!<br /><br />Thanks for sharing this :)Caitlinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12624818442174838361noreply@blogger.com
