{13feb2012: Obi}

I've mentioned before how great Kristie (Boo's mom) is. She always picks Darwin up for play dates, almost once a week) and she even watches Darwin when we go out of town. She helped Kona find a new, great home and also helped place another Dane that a stranger at the park asked her to help rehome, who Kona's mom took in!
Kristie learned of another Dane that needed rehoming and being the awesome person that she is she took Obi in to foster!

She had him less than a week and was able to place him in his new forever home of experienced Dane owners who are part of the Marymoor Great Dane group.
Before he went to his new home though, Darwin was able to go over for a play date to meet this handsome young fellow.
Here they are doing laps around the backyard (Darwin is the one making the monster noises per usual).

Here Darwin and Boo have a meet up to discuss what to do with this new guy, well Darwin does all the talking.

Darwin's laziness shows in this video. Obi keeps going, and Darwin stops halfway.

The blues separated themselves from the new kid for nap time.

But when Darwin was ready to play again she went over and tapped Obi on the head a couple times to get his attention.

Kristie had her dog trainer stop by to evaluate Obi, and while there he commented that Darwin was very regal, dominant and had a lot to say. hahaha. Very true, very true.

When we picked Darwin up that day we got a chance to meet Obi. Such a sweet guy. Around 2 years old, soft coat and so skinny, but he's got the Dane lean down and sucked up as much attention from us as he could.
His new family is lucky to have him and I'm hoping we'll get to see them at the park one of these days!
