Huge Puppy



















Here is the latest picture of our puppy - Sergio Brutos. He is only 7 months old here, but look at him, is really huge.

He is still growing bigger and taller. And I can't wait to see him on the time when he is bigger and taller than me.

What breed is he?

Great Dane, the same breed of today's tallest dog - Gibson (search for "tallest dog in the world" at Google).

What does he eat?

When he was much younger, we feed him with milk (powder milk - bear brand, alaska or nido) mixed with his dog food. After we saw an episode in Oprah about dogs (featured Gidson too), we learned that feeding your dog with dry dog food is not the best way. Oprah said indicated that raw meat is the best and the next best is feeding the dog with cooked food (similar to what we eat). So, for now, we have been feeding Sergio cooked chicken (adobo) with sliced carrots and potatoes, mixed with cooked rice. We give him Centrum vitamins too, though, his vet ( Dr. Egos) also prescribed him an appetite vitamin.

How is he treated?

Although, he is kept in his own dog hut with its own yard, most of the time, we do release him and let him run and walk outside his own domain but inside our bigger yard. He is free to go inside the house and run around inside the house. He is already familiar with what's inside the house thus he doesn't knock off anything anymore. Once he is tired of moving around, he will just lie down anywhere in the house. The one in the picture is one of his favorite places, though most of the times, he likes to lie down across our bedroom door.
