I'm getting Crashbasket fitted for an articulated stifle brace.

http://www.orthopets.com/photo/index.html

These guys are in Denver. I'll probably arrive Thursday night, get his leg
casted on Friday, they will build the brace Saturday, he will get fitted and
adjustments Sunday and we will and leave Monday.

I'm probably going to be pretty hotel bound in the meantime since he's not
going to be extremely mobile, but I'm thinking about renting a minivan so
that he will have plenty of room and if it's not too cold, we could probably
grab a bite while he hangs in the van or something. He's short haired so I
can't leave him in the cold for too long.

We get to meet Crashbasket!! Count me in.

Right now it looks like Friday or Sunday could work.

We could order takeout or just have lunch at the hotel so the Crasher
doesn't have to ride around in the cold.

Cheers,

That would work. If we take him out in public we'll eventually get
surrounded by throngs of people as everyone who sees him will first say
"Wow!!!...that's the biggest dog I've ever seen" and then want to come over
and pet him (something he loves), ask how tall he is, how much he weighs and
those who have previously owned Great Danes will start talking about how
cool their Great Dane was and some of them will start to cry.

It always happens

I'll let you know where we're gonna be staying.

I'm pretty sure I could make it up that way Friday or Saturday - Sunday
might be tough
as I think I'm tied up that morning until 1 or so, and then again that
evening.

I would offer to bring our Newfy for a doggy playdate, but probably not a
good idea for Crash at the moment :-(

Regards,
Dedric

I'm sure Crash would love to play with your Newfie, but he's getting a bit
lame in one leg right now so maybe not a good idea this goaround.

I'm checking on doggie friendly hotels in the vicinity of the place we will
be getting the work done. I'll let you guys know when I know.

I want to see Macy's new studio while I'm there. Crash is a very well
behaved studio hound. He's right at home amongst racks of gear, although he
can create some pretty high SPL if he decides to offer up and opinion.

;o)

I'm way up for seeing John's new place, too. Still haven't made it over
there (except once long ago, the first time he ran that place).

Saturday I'll be in Boulder to try and learn something about EV
batteries at the next Denver Electric Vehicle Council meeting.

Cheers,

Well, I think it's very nice of me to invite us over there ;oD, but just to
be sure, I think John may need to weigh in on this.

Sounds great, John - next Friday it is!

So Deej, what's Crash's schedule that day? When do you want to get
together.

Cheers,

A few years ago I ran across this gal in Petsmart with three
Great Danes with her... one of 'em was absolutely enormous -
the others were normal, good-sized for their breed. She was
wearing a rescue service jacket of some kind & I asked her if
they were pets or working dogs; she said they used them for
finding people that were lost in the mountains up in Big Bend
Nat'l Forest east of here. I remarked that I hadn't known that
Danes were used for tracking, and she said they could track OK,
but they mainly used them because they're so robust & can take
that kind of terrain for long periods of time. So, the bigger
& stronger they can get 'em, the better for their purposes, I
guess... and that one pooch was frickin' enormous!

I saw a documentary about those dogs. During one part of it they had set
them on the trail of a little girl who had gotten lost in the park. One of
the dogs found her and stayed with her all night. the little girl said that
it was so noble of the dog to have curled up with her to keep her warm. Amy
and I laughed our butts off when we heard that. We know better. That dog was
cold and he was using that little girl for a heating pad. Ours do it on a
regular basis.
