"The canine population of the United States is about 25 million.
Out of this, about 25 million can be classified as neurotic - a conservative estimate."
--Stephen Baker _How To Live with a Neurotic Dog_ (1960)

Kala

Mastiff / Great Dane mix

born June 26 2002

She almost seems to have a Mastiff head with a Dane body. She's taller than a pure Mastiff but not as wide - not as tall as a pure Dane. She is actually very slim, almost like a giant Greyhound. But she's got the big head :) Her paws are huge. At first glance she might resemble a VERY large black Lab. Once you get over this, you'll see that she is something quite different indeed.

So... have I mentioned that this dog can produce some serious drool? (yeah, that's a leaf in there...)

Finally some more recent pics from July 4 2004. These are fairly large so I won't in-line them. (Bert snapped the following 3 pics - thanks!)

Pics below are all from October 21, 2002 when she was 4 months old.
