today i saw a deformed great dane.

lots of people walk their dogs along ocean ave in santa monica, and dan and i have started taking walks there ourselves just for the sake of a little dog-watching. there have been some awesome sightings, but today we saw an amazing great dane. however, when he stood up, the lower joints of his front legs fan outwards and seem to bend the wrong way. it was very sad as movement looked difficult, especially for such a large dog. luckily, it looks like he has a good, caring owner.
