Naw, my male is about 5 inches shorter than this one and weighes about 175. The height of this dog is what is really amazing!!! The weight not so much, he is just overweight and probably needs to drop 35-40lbs. I expect my male to be around 200lbs when he is 4.

I have heard this dog was supplemented with elephant milk his first year of life dont know if that is true or not.

He sure is purty. Never was a fan of the Blue color, but I wish he was mine.

If you could afford to feed that dog after hauling decoys you could probably just buy a 4 wheeler.

I dont buy that he eats 110 lbs a month...unless they are feeding him some crap that is mostly corn. I have 5 danes and feed a 200 lbs a month on average during winter, less during summer, and all of my dogs are in tip top shape.
