The Adventures of our Family and Friends....

We are 1450 crew, a family of weirdos living on the Oregon Coast. We moved here from Southern Idaho in 2001 and love the area. We are most interested in ATV's, Geocaching, Camping, Hiking, Photography, and Old Cars. This is just an online Journal to keep track of what we do and when. Leave a comment if you like!

Crixus (at seven months)

Crixus is now seven months old and is growing leaps and bounds. Last weight was 110 pounds a couple of weeks ago. He still has a great deal of growing still to go! To date his destructiveness hasn’t been too terribly bad – he’s gnawed a leg on the coffee table, ripped a corner off the leather couch, dug a few holes, and leaves huge piles in the yard (if you know what I mean).

He continues to be a very loving dog and like most Great Danes he thinks he’s a lapdog. Of course now it hurts when he flops on someone. Due to his size he does get in more trouble than other dogs, but I think that is only because he’s more visible doing things.

He likes the beach and is getting to like water a bit more (he even cooperates when Bridgett gives him a bath now). It is a bit difficult getting used to another large body in the house along with the smaller Lasa Apso, and three cats… yes we have a few animals, but I don’t count the koi in the back yard pond.

It promises to be an interesting experience!
