Honest, I didn’t mean to. Mom took me to the dog park to train me outside of the park. Then, because I was really good and there were only nice doggies in the dog park, she let me go inside and play with them. She was being really careful because when I was little I was attacked by mean dogs several times. Anyhow, I met some new friends and was having lots of fun running around with them, and in general, just being happy puppies.
While we were racing around, I decided to head back to Mom to check on her. All of my new friends were following me right on my tail. I was running fast because they were a lot bigger than me (!!) and I wanted to show them that being a lightweight (105 pounds) has it’s advantages. Anyhow, Mom was busy talking to her new friends and didn’t see us coming and we all crashed into her. It was kinda cool because I learned that when you hit Mom hard enough she actually knows how to fly! Wow! She flew right over our heads. I think my friends were impressed.
Mom wasn’t able to stand up for some reason, so I stayed right by her. I was worried about her because a bunch of people ran over to be near her and I didn’t know them, so I was staying by her so she would feel better.
Now Mom can’t walk anymore, and she can’t even take me for walkies or play with me. Dad said I have to be extra careful around her for a long time. I miss our walkies!
Oh yeah, we were just getting ready to go on a trip to help our family out. Mom’s going to have to drive over 2,000 miles with her big boo boo, too. At least Dad will be there too, so he can play with me when we get there and at rest stops. He’ll be in a big truck and Mom in a car. The others in our family will be in more cars.
Mom said we probably will not be able to post any updates while we are gone, so this blog will be on vacation until we get back. I’m looking forward to telling you all about my lonnnnnnng trip when I get back, tho. This is my first time going on such a long trip.
♥ Behr Behr, at Mom’s side protecting her from more boo boos for now.
Note from Behr Behr’s mom: the people at the dog park added up the dog’s weights and figured I had been hit with almost 500 pounds of fast moving fur coated football players 🙂 Tackled by a line backer, maybe? Anyhow, I have partially or completely torn all but one of the tendons in my knee, and the MCL is partially torn loose from the tibia bone. Not only that, but the kneecap is damaged and cartilage torn off of the back of it and the top of the femur bone. Ouch, with a capital “O”. I’ll be getting it fixed after I get back (doc said they can’t do anything right now anyhow because of swelling and other issues). Meanwhile, I’m stuck in a metal brace and limping badly 😦
We’ll update when we get back.

Boy was I super excited when I found out my brother, Guy, was coming to visit! He is in a temporary home right now, and the owner had to make a trip down to where we live, so she brought him for me to visit with. We don’t know what happened to his ear, but it makes him kinda cute anyhow.
We met them at a semi-private dog park so we could run and play together. I also got to see my grandmother!!! She used to look SO big to me, but I’m almost her size now, except I’m skinnier right now. She is a blue dane, turning grey. Does that make her a “Grey” Dane? (who is still great!!)
Guy had a home, once, but something went very wrong and he ended up homeless. His coat is still on the mend, so we are guessing he was maybe left outside, too. NOT a good thing for a great dane like us. Other than that, he was in good shape. He is super friendly and is much more calm and gentle acting than I am, but then again, I’m a Behr “Bear”.
Here are photos of us running around and playing with Guy’s piggie toy. He still loves toys, like me! It was sure fun playing with someone my size. Mom didn’t have to always worry about me accidentally hurting him like she does with some of my smaller friends.
Yikes! He’s after me! Run, Behr, Run!!!
Woo hoo! Guy knows how to play leapfrog!
It was such a treat to see my fur family. We had SOOOO much fun playing! I went to sleep that night dreaming of them, and Mom said I was barking and running in my sleep all night. That’s ok, I was reliving all of the joys and fun of the day. I’ll probably relive it over and over, too.

Yay!! The city we live in just opened it’s first dog park, and just after I finished my puppy shots. Good timing! Mom and Dad took me over there to check it out. Since they have separate park sections for big dogs, that’s where I went. I was scared of all the big dogs running around and barking, so I stayed glued to Mom and Dad and my cousins (both human and fur).
Finally, someone my size came over to meet me, and we quickly became good friends! This is Butch and me. He’s a full grown boxer. Gives you an idea what my size is at 17 weeks.
At least Butch didn’t laugh at my flying nun ears. In fact, his looked pretty silly sometimes, too. 🙂
We raced around a whole bunch. Wow! The rules are different here, and I’m actually allowed to bite!
Help, Dad! Butch is biting my face!!!
I think I’m going to have to keep coming to this park so I can play rough and run without being tied to my parents with that silly leash of theirs. My kind of place
