aw, amy, i'm so sorry you lost your dane. of course dogs are just as important members of our families as our kitties are, and i bet that the cats DO miss him dearly, too.
if this is your first baby, i would probably think that you might just want to wait until you get used to what changes that brings to your life and routine!
at the same time, i'm thinking that, as others have said, you're open to an older dog, there are probably dane rescues that would be THRILLED to have an experienced home for one of their charges! rescue transport is almost always available for critters not in your own area, and i'm sure there's a number of folks on this list who are active in rescue who could help you find a responsible rescue to work with in finding a new addition....

Hi all,
You probably remember me posting trying to find a home
for a kitty a few weeks ago because I'm pregnant and
had a Great Dane with bone cancer and couldn't take it
in.
Well I'm just writing to let you know that we lost our
Great Dane this week. I've lost so many cats to
leukemia that I thought I was prepared for this but I
wasn't. It's awful. Rocket did everything with us,
even squeezed into our bed at night despite there
being no room with us and 5 kitties. Rocket isn't a
cat but he was as much part of our family as our five
kitties who now miss him terribly.
I also have one question. I'm heartbroken and I miss
him terribly and want to go out and get another one.
Whenever I lose a kitty, I always go find another one
to rescue. I'm not replacing the one that is lost but
it helps me move on. I'm expecting a baby Sep 6th and
everybody tells me I'm crazy to think about a puppy
but our house is so empty without a Great Dane and the
cats miss him as much as we do. Has anybody ever
raised a puppy and a newborn at the same time? Any
suggestions or thoughts? Is it selfish to bring a
puppy in right now?
Amy
