Meet Falkor


No! Not that Falcor....


THIS Falkor!

Falkor is an 8 year old 'teacup' Great Dane who has come to stay with us for a little while. Her Mom, "E", recently moved to Sandy Eggo to help her sister, "D", out by being a nanny for her 3 year old niece. Unfortunately, the place D lives doesn't allow animals, and its a litle tough to hide a 90 lb Great Dane. Even one as quiet and mellow as Falkor.

Me & Mom met up with E & Falkor last month at a Great Dane meetup. At the time, E had another fostor who was watching Falkor, but over the weekend that fell through. So, now Falkor is gonna stay with us for a little while.


She's super sweet. Phoebe kitTON is fascinated by her, and is already trying to play with her. Fergie, on the other hand is terrified of her for some reason. You'd think by her reaction that she'd never seen a Great Dane before in her life! So far, Fergie is hiding in the bedroom...but Mom thinks she'll come around. Especially when she sees how gentle and calm Falkor is. (Unlike someone Mom knows!!)

I really like her, but wish she would play with me more. All she does is growl at me a little when I try to play. Mom says at her age, ladies prefer to be ladies and not associate with young houligans like me. Whatever! I'm just gonna keep tryin...I know one of these days she'll be persuaded with my good looks and charm!

She is probably very confused as to what is happening in her life. Be gentle with her and go slow in the playing thing.

Aww Falkor!
I hope her mom's housing situation gets straightened out, but in the mean time she's lucky to have you looking out for her!

I've never heard of a teacup dane before - but I've definitely had one. Our own Duchess was barely 100lbs! Welcome, Falkor, you are a sweetie!

Mom calls me a teacup rottweiler - I only weigh about 85# and my brothers are about 110. Falkor is gorgeous! Be gentle, Murphy, she'll come around :-)

Oh, Falkor is a lovely mature lady. I'm more like her now too - I'm not so keen to play with other doggies now, like I used to when I was younger. When I was 18 months, I would play with anything that moved! Hee! Hee! But now I'm pretty selective...

Slobbers,
Honey the Great Dane
