Sorry I’ve been gone for so long. We had computer problems, and it wasn’t my fault! I’m not allowed to touch the computer all by myself anyhow, so Mom has to do all of my typing for me. Besides that, my paws are way too big for the keyboard. Why don’t they make a keyboard for us danes? That’s what I want to know.
Anyhow, in the meantime, I’ve been learning some new things. Remember how I told you I love to pronk, like a gazelle? Well, this is really cool! I’ve figured out that if I slow myself down while in the air , and change the angle of my leap, I can actually HOVER!!! Yipeeee! I’m an official HOVER DOG now!! Those silly flying nun ears of mine make great wing flaps, too.
Check out my photos, and you’ll see I can hover at a pretty good altitude for a dane puppy. Maybe even as high as Falcor in the “Neverending Story”, but I’m cuter!! OK, so my landing is a little sloppy sometimes, but I’m still learning how to get the angle of my ear flaps correct for a smoother touchdown. Hey, I’m just a pup.
Actually, mom said I’m not supposed to be jumping around so much, but that maybe when I’m a little older I will be able to compete in jumping. Now THAT’S something I’d really like to do! Maybe I am part antelope afterall. Hmmmm. Would that make me a “dane-alope?”

Wow Behr you hover great. I have a post on my blog from last weekend when my mom went to a Polo match (without me!). She took a picture of a horse hovering! It’s the 1st picture on that post and if you click it you’ll see it big. You kinda look like that horse!

“Behr Behr the pronking Dane” has a nice ring to it! Pronk is one my human/s favourite words. There are just not enough opportunities to talk about pronking.:-)
Sorry to hear about the ‘puter problems. We were beginning to worry about you.
Two weeks ago we met a gorgeous Harlequin Dane puppy named London. She was so pretty and she had pretty pink lips and a beautiful pink harness exactly like yours! The human did not have the camera that day but she was so happy to see another gorgeous Dane in pink.:-)

Wow, Behr Behr, you are really high up! Congrats on your new hover-bilities!

Thanks for the compliment. Actually, I’m well over 5 feet high in the air in this picture. My mom was originally somewhere in the photo, but she didn’t want to be on my blog so she cropped herself out of the edge of the photo. If she stayed in the picture, tho, you would see how high I am off the ground in relation to her. I love to run around her in big, wild circles, leaping in the air. I sometimes leap like that when Dusty’s mom comes over too, ’cause sometimes she brings Dusty and I get excited to see her. I also leap like this (but not as high) when I know I’m going to get my foodies.
