I’m a navy veteran I broke my back during seal training and I had the worst transition coming home my wife cheated on me while I was away so I started drinking real heavy and getting into bad bar fights 4-5 times a week I lost pretty much every friend I had made because I was just “pissed” then I met my beautiful pit/boxer mix she’s 70 lbs and she has changed my life 100%. It’s amazing how love will change your life entirely. My girl is a rescue but in all honesty she rescued me
I'm glad your life is back on track. Don't let one cheating b*tch spoil life for you. Crap happens (unfortunately I don't seem to learn so I'm back to living with an adulterer) but it's not always that way. I too am pissed a lot of the time but it's more towards myself for making bad choices - and I know that one of these days when I get enough money saved up to leave (and take the dog and cats), I'll move and become unpissed. My dog is almost always at my side and, like you said, he rescued me more than the other way around.
Best wishes to you Dr. Cooks.
Hope you’re fine. That sounds like a horrible and painful situation!
I thank God that He sent you that sweet girl. Praying that Jesus fills your heart❤️
❤🎗 THANKS 4 UR SERVICE SO SORRY 4 BROKEN HEART/ INJURY.I GOT 3 RESCUES & YES THEY RESCUE US EVERYDAY SIR!.THANKS 4 ADOPTING& GOD BLESS U &UR BEAUTIFUL DOG!
The c’mon hug game is the sweetest!
That dog burps like a human!!!!! I think he thinks he's human. He even sits like one. One day I would love to have a Great Dane ☺️
He is a hooman in disguise 😊 When he cozy up in the sofa like a lazy ass hooman.
2:29 lol
I would love to have a Great Dane too !
A Great Dane does not really believe he is a dog, rather he is a member of the family. He'll sit on furniture, he will sleep in your bed and if you aren't careful he will steal your dinner. But one thing is for sure he will protect you. They are also inclined to protect children.
That was loud 😂😂😂
It’s so amazing. I have one and he thinks he’s a human allll the way. He even likes humans more than dogs now🤣🤣🤣
I really love the comment section of the Dodo. People are just celebrating, appreciating the animals and the relationships....
me too its so easy to troll them
The fact that she named her dog after Wrigley Field in Chicago makes me smile. That was the team that signed her back in 2013
She wanted to be traded to Washington to be closer to her special needs sister Lizzie who still lives in Delware. Head Coach/GM Mike Thibualt helped broker the 3 team deal that send her to DC.
💯🎯🏀
Ooh how I miss my Great Dane. I had a brindle. Yes I couldn’t agree with u more on how loyal they r. Truly a beautiful amazing majestic fur babies they r.
Same. Mine passed away when he was only two and I had him since he was seven months old. I definitely feel like I didn't get enough time with him, but at the same time I know that I gave him the best two years of his life and that's enough for me.

This is the sweetest video of love and trust. He is adorable.
Awww that’s so cute, Animals are the cutest most amazing creatures ever and deserve love, happiness and more🐶🐱🐻🦊🐯
Thank you Father for creating all animals, especially DOGS! 💓💗💓
@@duckgames__ Just Like Your Mom
@@lakkhanmc8854 hahaha you got the whole gang laughing 🤪
Dogs have the best souls, but yet we euthanize millions of the each year.
@@lollyplopperblue6239 If they really are suffering I think it's for the better though
one time my girlfriend asked me who I missed more when I was on a trip her or our dog. I really loved my gf but I told her the truth I missed our dog more. The love a dog gives is unexplainable and they greatest love anyone can ever receive .
Then you didn't meet the right woman ma man
@@vapecat1982 Yeah. It would really hurt hearing that. :-/
@@vapecat1982 how wrong you are
@@MaynardsSpaceship no she laughed and understood
@@vapecat1982 she was not only my gf but my best friend too
Such a cute goofy boy. Love his stuffed animals (giant giraffe) especially him trying to take the toy from Rasta. And as everyone else has said, he sits like an absolute boss!!🤣🤣
It's so nice that he has companionship while his mama is away for games
Wrigley is a beautiful dog. Such a sweet boy!
He is gorgeous! There is lots of love in your home, and the way he sits on the sofa is amazing. Thanks for sharing.
I read somewhere that dogs look like their owners and I didn’t believe it, now I’m convinced.
Yeah that's a tall handsome woman
Big boy is such a momma's (plural) boy.... He literally seems very in tune to his people.... 🥰
Could you please watch the vedios I applaud, hope you enjoy them.. ,
So jealous of the girls. He's such a darling. God bless
I adore Elena Delle Donne as an outstanding basketball player and now I adore her even more as a dog Mom. What a beautiful family 💖
We had a St Bernard when I was a little kid in NH, but our family friend had a Great Dane named Zorro who was much bigger (our dog was a bit of a runt for his breed). We'd go to their house to watch the Wizard of Oz in color, and use Zorro for a bolster on the floor, lol. He was a gentle giant, of course. He & Rasta are lucky to have their Hoomans, lol!
U know ur. Lady was keeper when she loved ur dog too
Ok. If you add all 3 of their heights together, it’s over 18 feet.
It would be cool to seem them try stacking |

What a couple of sweethearts!! Kudos for not cropping his ears. 💜
Totally with you! I wish more people were.
There should be a big push in America - and any other similar country, but the USA tends to lead the world when it comes to fashion - to prevent ear cropping and tail docking unless for medical reasons.
E.g. a dog breaks its tail too badly for it to be fixed, or its ears are badly damaged by an attack. Sadly the latter happens 🤬😓.
Our first dog had to have a couple of inches off the end of his tail because he kept wagging it too hard and hitting it. It was already at a weird angle because he broke it by wagging, and he'd keep breaking it when it healed. That was until he kept cutting it in the same place and spraying blood everywhere (he had a fast wag for a big dog)! It took till he got an infection before we had the surgery done (he wasn't in pain before, at least nothing that bothered him. Taking the bandage off was the bit he hated lol). Fortunately he was a greyhound so a couple of inches off his tail was nothing, really. But if you crop a tail short for "fashion" 😡🤢 you are basically cutting its tongue out. It's their primary way of communication.
It's been illegal here for some years to alter an animal's appearance for non-health reasons. Lambs in some places, where there are predators and potential trap hazards (e.g. getting their tails stuck in a hedgerow), will have their tails docked by a rubber band being put on it not long after birth: doesn't sound nice but apparently doesn't hurt them and could save their lives. Not all farmers do it, only those with those conditions. I don't object to ultimately good reasons, I abhor absolutely all "fashion" mutilation.
Sadly the USA doesn't have the best reputation for the treatment of farm animals (blessings be on those who do the job properly, and those with sanctuaries 💞), and it's reflected in the allowance of "body mods" to pets 🤮. It's utterly disgusting and needs to be stopped.
CONGRATULATIONS!! SWEET PROPOSAL... INCLUDING YOUR BIG BABY DOG!! I'M VERY HAPPY FOR YOU ALL!!
This must be one of the cutest story I’ve ever heard in a long time.. definitely one of my top 10..
2:10 i love how she says "my friendship with wringley is different" you can tell these women LOVE that dog, and he loves them. one small happy family that i hope stays happy. the best doggie homes are the ones that dont just view them as 'pets' but companions :)
Everyday Wrigley must be asked "so which one do you love more?"
"My Mom."
Answered like a smart and ambiguously intelligent man.
Awe his little burpy barkss
They're both adorable together
Dogs are just angels on earth. Sweetest ever❤️🐕
3:06 that is one of the cutest dog interceptions I’ve ever seen. Which is really saying something, because there is a lot of cute dog interceptions due to the fact that almost everything dogs do is cute.
It’s so cute that he knows how to tease, taunt, tickle her. And I love his rough-play physicality.
Yet, he’s also tender-hearted and cuddly ♥️
I’d LOVE to have a doggy-friend companion like Wrigley, and neighbor-friends like the two women ♥️
My neighbor had a Great Dane. Libby was friends with my late dog and every time I took her out Libby was next door and she'd come over for a head pet. They're big gentle giants. So happy you have Wrigley.
I owned a blue Great Dane many years ago....Jason.....who never thought he was a dog but a human, always thinking he was unique....that is until I stayed on a caravan park. It was there that I met two blue Great Danes, mother and daughter Coral and Lulu ....they too thought they were humans, as they would casually sit at the table whilst dinner was being dished up, eye balling each spoonful served onto the plates.
How regal they were.....bless them.
Bless you too dear Jason....you're alays in our thoughts...forever in our hearts....💕💕💕💕🐕
I love that they're a perfect matched pair. Mom and Dog are perfectly proportioned for each other and it's so adorable, especially when you can't tell that he's not a retriever/lab until you see him and mom next to an actual retriever/lab. Just too precious!
also, the alone-togetherness with new-mom when OG-mom is away is just too kyoot!
greatdane are the gentle giant of dogs they are sweet and beutiful and very loving.
This is why dog's are just the best. So effortlessly loving. 🥺
What a wonderful relationship you have! So precious. 💕💕💕
He's gorgeous, you have a great bond, they big come a huge part of our lives, great video thanks 💖😁
Omg what a big baby love!!!!!!! The hug game is the sweetest!!!! I am convinced that daneys do not posses the ability to be mean at all! No matter what!!! Such an awesome breed!
You can really tell that all 4 of you have this really tight knit, beautiful, loving bond with one another. ❤️❤️❤️
I was watching this and my cat was napping and when the dog in the vid was barking she was like
Oh no
They found me
My cats jump up to watch the tv is I have some shows like The Zoo, Dr. Jeff, etc. on!
Great Dane's are the best. My Harley has been an absolute gift to me.
Bringing smiles to people is truly noble work. Thank you
I had great dane aswell... for 13 half years. She was my sister and grew up with us. I miss her.❤
Absolutely awesome when your dogs toy is a mini giraffe, love this sweet ole man!!!
Wrigley's hug game made me tear up, it's so incredibly sweet. What a lovely, lovely creature.
Could you please watch the vedios I applaud, hope you enjoy them......
what a gorgeous stunning furbaby..and family forever
Makes me miss my Great Dane all the more.
My daughter had her's on her 21st birthday
Hello stevi
Hi how you doing wanna text ?
Would have loved to see more of the engagement part as that was the heading. They are such a great family!!
A gentle giant with the soul of a puppy. How good is that?
A friend of ours had an absolutely HUGE great dane, totally deep black, the only thing lighter than pitch black were his eyeballs, his teeth, and his tongue. He was aptly named Midnight.
Our friend's living room window was fairly high off the ground. Whenever Midnight heard our friend's car pulling into the street he ran to the living room window and placed his head on the window sill. Nope, he did NOT stand on his hind legs for that, he simply DROPPED his head while on all fours onto the window sill, and watched the car driving up the street and pull into the drive way towards the garage. It was always hilarious seeing that huge dog's head on the window sill.
Only when our friend emerged from the garage did Midnight give ONE single, deeeeeep throated bark, and sped to the front door. With one lunge he placed both front paws on the shoulders of our friend, who was 193 cm tall, or 6'3" and gave him a slobbery kiss. No stretching of his body, just simply straight face to face. Saddly that was more than 30 years ago, and Midnight passed away quite some time ago. But I still remember that incredibly gentle giant of a great dane very fondly.
God must love you very much to bring this beautiful gift into your life. What a giant furry piece of pure gold you have there and my sense is that you're so grateful for him as well. Wonderful clip.
What a good boy. A dog is not just a man's best friend
Love the dog, he´s adorable !!
also he is so funny
Dogs are so wonderful.
Oh he is adorable!! With such a big dog, it’s funny to see him act like a lovable puppy! He would brighten anyone’s day!😄
I have a friend with 2 Great Danes and they're just the sweetest. I love them so much 😭
Careful putting anything on a coffee table with these. That tail will clear the whole table 🤣
Wrigley is a gorgeous Great Dane, so big and playful. You both are very lucky and Rosta is too. Awesome family. 💗💗🐾🐾👏👏
So beautiful & precious & adorable. ❤️👍🙏Also thank you for helping people , charities & helping animals. GOD bless you .
I love you both, keep smiling guys 🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶
I've had Danes all my life. I just lost my 12 year old girl. Have fun with him. They are the best friends! Thank you for sharing.
The tough times are when you leave. -sniff- And they're both curled up comforting each other while their favourite person is off away 😊
He is gorgeous and you guys are so blessed. Beautiful relationship you guys have and it shows in how much her adores you too. Keep up the awesome work.
Love Ella and her career. Only fitting that she has a big beautiful dog. Love them both!
My great Dane is such a lover boy sweetest thing ever keeps our boxer on her toes lol
That big boy is the best! You girls are the best! Thanks for giving all the love he deserves! Love wendy
This the most wonderful video I have seen with a dog loving its person I have ever seen.
your relationship all 3 of you is beautiful
So sweet! Love your family ❤️
The giant stuffed giraffe as a toy 😂🥰
Absolutely beautiful story. Thank you two for sharing it. Love & respect from Hermitage PA.
Adorable dog. And congrats to these two beautiful women for getting married
Imagine the cuddles. Awesome. You could wrap yourself around him
He looks like a cool dude in the thumbnail 😊 Best wingman.
He's a big boy. Congratulations to both of you on your engagement. Love from Canada 🇨🇦❤
I now have my third rescue Dane, Jackson and like the others he is truly loving and adorable. I loved your video and my Jackson does everything Wrigley does. They are so funny especially when they reverse to sit on the sofa or chair. He's just wonderful and I know the kind of love you're talking about, my Jackson drools so you're forever cleaning it of the walls ceiling and every where else in the house but I wouldn't part with him for the world. Love and blessings to you all x
FAntastic... so much Love! Thank You ! Blessings! 🙏🙏💕💕💙💙
That way that Wrigley looks at her is so transparent with unconditional love.
Being a dog mom, I feel exactly the same. Coming home from work who sits by the window looking out to wait for mama? My Labradoodle. Dogs only know unconditional LOVE
So adorable!! 🥰🥰 He’s so darn cute!! I love him in his jersey. I really think I would love to have a Great Dane.
❤️❤️❤️
To be honest when I watched the video and the way the dog was "sitting" on the couch I realized it wasn't much different from how my older brother sits on the couch either.
🤣🤣
Dogs are just the best. My boy is my soul mate ❤
He's a goofy giant! How fun, I'm always impressed at how big but gentle Great Danes are
I grew up with a 210 lb Great Dane. They’re wonderful dogs. I live out in the country, Texas. Coyotes. Starbuck protected the whole farm. I miss him.
Wrigley's Spearmint Gum is absolutely a dream
That burp tho 😅
I know!! XD
Oh, you haven't experienced the other end!!! Dane farts are disgusting.
I'm sure her one fan was fully supportive.
Great Danes are so special but I'm sad that they dont live very long lives Ive known two Danes in my time and they were both just utter goofballs with hearts as big as they were
Beautiful story beautiful dog beautiful mum
They are so loving and loyal.💞💞💞
What a lovely family my favorite basketball player has ❤️🙏🏿
That's what I like about dogs, loyalty.
Omg using his paw to try and get the toy away from his big sister is hilarious. I’ve done that too with my big sister
Wrigley is a majestic boy. Beautiful
My Greatdane died last month so seen another Greatdane dog happy is seriously amazing. ❤️❤️❤️
What a awesome friend you have you both are a whole
Hes definitely a little person ❤️❤️
Love this video. Also love the lack of negative comments. All love is good love.
Lots of blessings to the entire wonderful family. 🙏🏼💛
This is so sweet I can feel my heart melt!
Great Danes are amazing dogs. This was a great video to watch.
You'll never find someone that loves like a dog, it's unconditional. If you do, hold onto that person big time !
