H_Hounds   10 #2 Posted December 27, 2011 Hi  I'm always up for a walk. I have two great danes and a cocker and two of them love other dogs. One of them is in season atm tho so I wouldn'tbe able to meet you for a couple of weeks or she might drive other dogs crazy!  I go on the Great Dane Owners forum a lot who organise loads of walks. You should see if there's one for German Shepherds and start an organised walk near you. People get really enthusiastic about their breed.  I think it's great that you are trying to socialise her too.  Terri Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
my eyes only   10 #3 Posted December 28, 2011 have you tried charnock park? there is nearly always someone walking there dog. when it is school most people meet up between 8.30 and 9am, and there is usually someone around 2.30ish in the afternoon. hope this helps.

Leesha   10 #4 Posted December 29, 2011 H Hounds, Firstly, Wow! 2 Great Danes!!! One is enough for me!! HaHa!  On another note, I don't actually know anyone else in Sheffield with Great Danes, so if you wouldn't mind, I'd love to meet up with you in the New Year for a Dane walk!!  Mine is a Harlequin (sp) bitch, 3 years old, (not done yet, will be at the end of Jan) and has a lovely temperament. She loves all dogs, big or small. We also have a Chihuahua and they get on famously, they couldn't be without eachother.  We rescued her back in May from a Puppy Farm, she'd been used as a breeding machine and was very malnourished and scared. But we've worked really hard with her and now she loves affection from anyone, she's very vocal, is starting to love food - she's still underweight, but has put on such a lot these past few months, but more than anything she loves to run around and play.  Unfortunately, when we go walkies to Graves Park, most other Dog owners are nervous of her because of her size and won't allow their Dogs to play with her. So to meet another Dane would be wonderful for her.  If you'd like, PM me your number and we can arrange something.  I have also noticed you're a groomer ... could I also arrange a bath for the Dane as she won't fit in our bath and she's scared of the hose pipe!! She stinks!! HaHa!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
H_Hounds   10 #5 Posted December 29, 2011 Hi Leesha!  I think it's great that you rescued a dane! They are fab. What an awful life she had  I'd love to meet up for a walk, I couldn't bring my harlie as she can be nasty with new dogs at first but my blue one loves them and is very vocal too  I know what you mean. People are terrified of Bella (blue) cos she is daft and bounds up to people barking but she doesn't know how to say hello properly lol.  I'll PM you so we can meet up! And I'd love to bath your Dane! I know what you mean about water, you only have to show my harlie a hose and she's gone before you can blink. Bella is too stupid to know what it is lol.  See you soon hopefully!  Terri Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
bogwoppit   10 #6 Posted December 30, 2011 Hi I live in Heeley and am always looking for peeps over this end to walk with (despite being really busy at the moment). Catlane/Gleadless woods are our regular spots. I have a labrador lurcher and a staffy cross, both rescues - let us know if/when you're planning to meet if you want us along Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
H_Hounds   10 #7 Posted December 30, 2011 Hi!  The more the merrier  Leesha hasn't got back to me yet but let me know when you're free in the new year and we'll get it on here.  Terri Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Leesha   10 #8 Posted January 3, 2012 Hello  So sorry I haven't been back on here!! Been staying in South Shields with the Sister in Law for New Year and my phone signal is rubbish!!  Anyway, I'm thinking if anyone is free on Saturday or Sunday? We could meet at the Pavillion in Graves Park and have a walk? I work Mon - Fri 9 - 5 so it's difficult to get out other than weekends. I do take them walkies after work, I just avoid parks as it's too dark!!  Anyone want to suggest a time etc? I can get there when ever.  Terri - I've text you, hopefully you've got it? Really hoping we can sort something out?  Leesha x Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
H_Hounds   10 #9 Posted January 3, 2012 That's such a shame. I have bookings on weekends so I can only do Mon,Tues or evenings. I'll keep an eye on here though as it would be great fun to get the danes together.  What time is it getting dark these days?
