Just HOW lazy are Great Danes? What to expect as an owner | Great Dane Care
Great Danes are often called "lazy" dogs, but is this really true? It's well known how much they like to lounge around the house and sleep, but does that make them a lazy breed?
While Great Danes certainly enjoy relaxing, in my experience I've found them very able, willing, and excited to engage in activities and outings. From simple things like following you around the house to outings like going to the dog park, on hikes, and many others, they're excited to join.
Of course, each dog's activity level will vary so your own experience may differ. Make sure to comment below to let us know what you think on this very important Great Dane question ;)

I love that Gus opened her eyes as soon as you said "dog park" hahah
Those eyes may be closed but her ears aren’t! 😂
That's my dog when I say Food.
hahahaha good catch!
And then she closed them again when she realized he was just talking to the camera, not to her haha. Our Dane does the same kind of stuff, though she's still a pup (11 months) so her reactions are more energetic. But she'll quickly figure out if we are talking to her or not, and she will act accordingly!
@@GreatDaneCare I agree. I got one he seemed lay back but not lazy 😂
me: 🥱 3am getting up to use the bathroom my dane : 👀 🏃
I've had Danes for years. They aren't lazy they simply practice selective mobility
Selective energy expenditure! 😂
ROFL!!!!!!! So true though. I have one and it is very very selective about mobility
Lol yeah when I asked mine to get up and go to bed, she had no energy. If I ask her about the dog park, she’s super ready.
Haha made me laugh.. ❤️❤️
My Koa is just that, "selectively mobile". Anytime I change rooms in our home, he pops right up to follow me no matter what's going on. 😄
Had a pair of danes years ago. 15 minutes of zooming in the back yard followed by 5 hours of rest seemed to be there pattern
It’s a good pattern 😁
Yes!! I have a 10-month old Dane puppy and she's exactly the same. About 15-30 mins of exercise results in several hours of napping! That said, she has PLENTY of energy for outings, games, meeting new people, etc. If it's interesting, she's all in!
That’s really interesting actually, I read that Great Danes require a minimum of 3hrs exercise a day?
@@rachaelburt1737 Don't know where you read that but 3 hours of exercise would be really bad for the bones and ligaments of a growing Dane. Count that source as a source of misinformation!
Both times "dog park" was mentioned, Gus opened her eyes...very funny.
Good catch, I hadn’t noticed that!
Great Danes were created by God for a specific purpose. It is a well known fact that couches like to fly away for parts unknown. There fore their purpose is to lay on the couch to make sure it does not fly out of the house.
It’s a tough job but someone’s gotta do it 🤣
Omg that makes a lot of sense! They truly are a gift from god!
And if its cold, they help with warmth, w/o even being asked. They are noble and good ball catchers too!!!
I love this channel!!!!
I always thought Danes were lazy until I had one. My Luna is almost 8 and still plays and run with the younger dogs of our friends, goes for hikes and loves long walks and even runs. I feel like Danes are a great adaptable dog and will adapt to your lifestyle just to ensure they get the optimal amount of time with you.
They just want to do whatever the family’s doing 😁
They are definitely not lazy. Mine have eaten half doors to get to me. 😂
Lol that is frightening
I've got a 1 year old Dane and a 5 year old pit I'm about to have treated for heart worms. Keeping them from playing won't be easy!
My Dane would just claw them down, she was that much of a giant baby.
Our Great Dane was lazy. He got up to eat, drink, poop and to follow people into other rooms. He had about 10 minutes of the crazies after his 8pm meal and that was about it. The rest of the time he was laying up against or ON somebody so I wouldn't of had him any other way. I was always amazed at how much muscle he had for as little as he did. Wish I could be that buff while being that lazy.
For all the reasons you said I agree, Danes are not lazy. They are easy going which can I guess be mistaken as lazy. They are thinkers. They think then respond. Great Danes are special and a huge commitment. Before getting your first Dane, research, research, research the breed. But the first question you should ask yourself is - Do I want my dog to be by my side constantly, 24/7? If not, don't get a Great Dane and spare yourself the research. Great Danes are companion dogs and they take that job very seriously. They are loyal, protective, majestic and Scooby Doo all rolled into one. With a Great Dane at your side you will laugh daily and your heart will melt with the love they give. When your Dane looks you in the eye they're looking into your heart. Everything about the Dane is giant, that includes their heart and brain. I found this quote when I was first researching Danes 9 years ago and have found it to be so true. "By the time your Great Dane turns one, they know they are human. By the time they are two, you know they are human." I so enjoy this channel, great info on Danes.
I agree with you 100 percent...I worked from home for years and had two Danes at the same time. I had to put a giant couch in my living room, where I worked, because they had to be by me or my brother... They were ready at any instance to go for walks or to parties with us...I've had three more Danes since then... very smart dogs, super loving and funny...I just lost my 5th Dane , a female fawn , she died suddenly a couple months ago at 9 years old...Danes are so similar to each other but yet so distinctively individual to themselves.... Only downside is short lifespan... can't wait to get another Great Dane!
Kat and Dogs on Wheels I love this so much
❤️❤️❤️
You give a beautiful and honest review of ownership and care of a Great Dane. I was fortunate enough to have my Roxie for 14 years. She never chewed anything and was the most loving and loyal dog ever. Her only vice was stealing food off counters, easily rectified lol. She was by my side at all times.
14 SO LUCK XX
She sounds wonderful. I’m glad you got to enjoy so many years together!
I had my great dane Hope for 9 years. Definitely a joy to have and so lucky to see them live that long
The amount of 'laziness' or inactivity of one's Great Dane is often proportional to the amount of activity of the owner. If one spends hours online on laptop or phone, the Great Dane is content to simply lie nearby for the duration. If I'm going outside, my GD wants to join me-sometimes for a short walk, sometimes to get the mail, or sometimes she simply wants to 'help' bring in the groceries from the car. She always desires to be where the action is. Lazy dogs don't care nor wish to be bothered.
I am getting a Great Dane this weekend and I know how to take care of one because of you! Thank you for all your help
Aww thank you so much ☺️ Make sure to check out our website as well as it has a lot more puppy content!
Enjoy the ride
You will not regret it!! I've always wanted a Great Dane and finally got one in March of this year. My girl is now 10-months old and, oh my goodness, I couldn't possibly love her more!! They are a lot of work as puppies (but that's true for any breed - puppies require a lot of care), but the goofy personality and love you'll get in return is so, so worth it. Oh, and be prepared to never pee or shower alone again! We aren't kidding when we say they always want to be with you! LOL
Now that it's been a year since you commented how is your great dane ?
I call these "chill but will dogs" . . . They chill if you do and they will get up and go if you do. I also call the protective type of watching guarding and protection dogs that are not particularly suspicious and sociable enough and not hyper-reactive, don't bark unless there really is a reason to bark because of their intuition, "Chill but Will" dogs because their demeanor is chill: they're watchin'... they know what's going on, but they will take care of business if something about the situation or the person changes, Or if there is reason to be suspicious the dog will do whatever is necessary to put it self between you and danger and handle that danger so you don't have to you, to protect you, because they take it is their solemn sworn duty to do so.
my great dane "Olive" is watching this with me and she is staring at Gus, me and my family are cracking up right now!
She’s probably wondering when they can play! ☺️
@@GreatDaneCare yeah probably...
My Great Dane pup LOVES watching other animals on TV. Doesn't matter what it is - dogs, cats, pigs, lizards - she's all in. She will actively stop playing and watch the TV if I put something with animals on. It's a great way to get her to chill out when she needs a timeout. LOL
That comment about them following you even if it takes to get up from deep sleep is sooo true 😊
Great review, we have a Great Dane, Marmaduke he is 3 years old and a very active boy, needs to know what we are doing at all times, and still chases birds they fly in the back yard, they are very sweet dogs and very very protective of their families.
My family just got a Great Dane pup in December. I really appreciate your content.
Thanks Noah and congratulations on the new pup!!
Thank you foR this!
Great content and advice too. Thank you for sharing your experience ps love your vids very clear and to the point 🥰👍🏻
Glad to hear that you’re enjoying them Lina!!
Great Dane Care 🥰👍🏻
Totally agree!
I found your description quite accurate. Our Pepper loves going for walks and when we are somewhere that she can be off leash she runs and runs, I definately would not call her lazy.
Danes are the best! My Dane Lucy loves to take a walk--a little bit. But that is one of the reasons I love the dog. I am not a hiker, biker, climber. I am a lounger, a stroller, a meanderer. Lucy is happy to do all of these things. Thank you for your channel.
I completely agree.
My jaxson was the best friend ❤ one could ever ask for. We walked miles every day through the woods and he was totally in his element and was NEVER lazy. Best friends a man could ever ask for. Never left my side.
Definitely not lazy. This is the first Dane I have ever had and love every minute. She loves to play with my horse she is very respectful and they have fun, but still under someone's watchful eye. It's funny watching her chase the rabbits also. She is just 6 mos old and quite the character. Love your channel. Very helpful.
Debbie Fallon where are you from ? lol
We have a dane who will be 7 this September. I would agree that they're not lazy. They're reserving their energy for the fun times with their people! My Apollo does have a bedtime that he has set himself. He used to stare at us until we went to bed, but now he just gets in his bed on his own when he gets tired.
Yup, Gus something similar at night!
What I found out after owning a couple over the years is that they enjoy going with me and get involved in any play that I introduced them too. On the other hand they are all about comfort and enjoy resting and sleeping as much as they did playing. It's up to you as the owner too pick what activity (and trust me sleeping is definatly an activity as far as they are concered) the will engage in. Love them always and they will reward you with some of the best experiances you could possibly have.
Gus is a sleepy baby, so cute!
So sweet! Gentle, sleepy giant!
I have a Great Dane lab mix named Sammy, he is definitely not lazy, he does sleep a lot, but when he's outside, he has lots of energy and plays for hours. And yes, even when he's in a deep sleep and I leave the room, he gets up to follow me every time. Best dogs ever. So sweet and kind. Definitely a gentle giant. He loves people and other animals, especially cats
They are energy efficient.. if they could fit my home i'd love to have one of these giants...their energy and love of sleep is my vibe
That makes two of us 😄
I love your videos. They are so well done you stefan excellent speaker. You present very well
Thank you so much, I’m glad you’re enjoying them!
What I loved about my Danes was that if I just wanted to hang out at home and watch a movie, they would cuddle with me. But then the next day if I wanted to go on a long hike, they were just as happy.
Our once is kinda lazy but do like to go for a drive and a walk. Theyre buzy till round 4 then it is resting time. Love them. Veronica
Everything you said is so true, my grandsons Pepper is very much like you said,
They are not lazy they are really good at relaxing!
That’s a good way to put it 😁
I love my Great Dane!!!! She’s so beautiful and elegant!!!!!!
This is all so true! We had to say goodbye to our 175lb 9 year old male pie bald and we are devastated! We are on the search for a new adventure if you may know where we can go. We live on Long Island NY and so far I don’t see anything local
My great dane knows when im going to come back to the room i find and always has to be in a room with someone on the same couch or the one next to them.
Fully agree!!Everything you say is so much great dane!
They’re the best ☺️
i agree with what u said! I wish people would educate themselves about this breed before they purchase it.
Just got my new puppy. Blue dane. Your video is spot on. My first baby was a black lab great dane. This one is pure akc dane. Gus is beautiful and yes.....this one is like velcro but like Houdini. Into Everything ;)
I've had a black male and a blue male... They both had a decent energy level (even as puppies), but if they played hard, then they needed a good 4-5 hour sleep before they were willing to even go out for a pee. My blue boy loved being around us but loved that we went to work so he could have peace and quiet. If you were home sick for a day, he would look at you with resentment because he couldn't get his 'beauty sleep'. I have a female harlequin now, it was exhausting for us through her puppy stage... She was go go go all the time and destructive if we left the room for a min or 2. Now that she is 2, she still has more energy than what I'm used to, but she has calmed down drastically. 30-45 min at a dog park, playing with other dogs, she will be out for the rest of the day and night. Have to force her to go pee before bed. You know she's tired if she doesn't follow you around the house, hoping to get snacks
My big boy is a good mix of both. 🥰
I’m getting my first Dane this year she’s going to be harlequin female, i can’t wait for her to cheer my life up.
Awww such a cute Dog, I really want one 😍
Lol!!! Mine definitely is! 22 hours a day sleeping just ok different locations around the house.
We have a 7 month old and he is all up in my business. Still working on training but definitely not lazy
I just found your channel. We got our Great Dane puppy, we have been wanting for 2 years, finally last month. He has been a hoot. He sleeps so much but has rambunctious bouts where he gets the zoomies and flops all over with his giant feet. He follows me around most of the time when I get up unless it is during his afternoon nap. He is the perfect dog to take places because he is super quiet unless playing with our other dog and is super chill and happy to get pets from everyone. So far I agree that he seems to be happy to do anything if it means he can be near us. Can't wait for him to get over his shoe and paper fetish though
Our 2 yr old Dane plays fetch for about 30 - 60 minutes a day, runs around the yard in a zoomie fashion and goes on a 3km-4km walk. She has way more energy than we ever anticipated.
She sounds like a fun one!
Love these videos. :) All my Danes have been very active by most any breeds standards, as they train horses with me, up trails, through brush, even 10 hr mountain trail rides. My last girl, Sage, even at 32" especially was a devoted assistant trainer and would follow me and every horse I worked with for hours and hours in a day...she was pretty ripped in shaped. I lost her at 10, and she slowed to easy walks at the age of 8. Pretty much every individual is unique, but being bred to hunt large game in tough country and looking at their sheer physicality of build does lend them to a life of action. great channel...:)
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it 😁 I’d love to watch your Danes help train the horses!
Okee dokee...lol kzhead.info/sun/mdCYdK-efIKZjKM/bejne.html
That is awesome. Do new horses take time to get used to the Danes running around with them?
Yes...some horses really are triggered by the Danes. Not sure if they are a pony or a dog I suppose. I love them in the bush and on the trail as they really help with de-spooking the horses. Let's face it...if the horses can handle Monterey dogs crashing thru the brush...they can pretty much handle anything. Hahahaha
I have a great dane who is active and always ready to go on walks.
Mine is sound asleep on her blanket❤️ But she was hit by a car and has had her femur plated and pinned. She has a big excuse. 8 weeks post surgery, she is more active but the leg is still fragile. Anyway, this is not a lazy breed 😁
Oh no poor girl...hope she heels well and is back to full health soon!!
My vet thinks she will. She’s 2 and a very “chill” girl. Only at 109 lbs she thinks she’s a lap dog!
Omg...i wish your pup speedy recovery ☹
She opened her eyes when you said "dog park"! Then like "oh yeah we making a video, I sleep now" 😇❤️😂
Part of my job involves supervising doggy play dates and daycare. Theres a specific activity that we do all the time that involves coaxing dogs through agility obstacles slowly- hoola hoops, expandable tunnels, over different toys- and no matter how lazy or shy a great dane- which we see all the time- is, they're SUPER motivated by the affection of people and toys. Even if you're not Their Person, they love people and they know that people love them so they'll do just about anything to get those pets. But, if you're just going to sit with them and stroke their ears they're more than happy to just lay there with their head in your lap, or scheming to find a way to get their entire body on your lap.
My Bentley is far from lazy...he is pretty much active all the time, in fact I have to keep him involved with activities just to wear off some of his energy (although he is only 1.4 years old and has not been fixed yet), so he requires a lot of my time, which I love. He sticks to me like glue so he is my best friend in every way! So, no they are not lazy!
Well mine is neutral she is still a puppy but she seems to understand my lack of going out but I still take her out on walks and play with her and she seems content
Yes. My dane follows me everywhere and she can look like shes totally asleep. And she loved being in agility class...😃 We have a group 15 dogs that we love playing with and going on walks with off leashes for everyone❣
Zach, can you please link the breeder you got Gus from. Thank you!
Can you do a video on your dogs feeding schedule and how much she eats?
My Dane Duke was ready to sleep but ready to go anytime I left the house. He loved to play and ride in the car.
Quite literally just along for the ride 😉
I grew up with blue, harlequin and fawn great danes. They are wonderful dogs and aren’t lazy at all, but they are more chill. The lounge around and hang with you until it is time to go outside and play. Our blue dane, Baron, loved the water. When we took him to the beach, he would jump through the waves and then race around the sand dunes just to repeat the process.
Love mine
I have a Great Dane/German Shorthaired Pointer mix as my service dog, and the GD in her is SO obvious. She LOVES people, loves making friends (she thought a groundhog was another dog and tried playing with it - we ended up in the vet E.R. for that ha!), and she's content to sleep for hours or work for me for hours. Making sure she gets moving throughout the day helps ME get moving. She has SUCH an amazing brand of humor!! Does Gus like to talk to you guys too? (Addy likes to grunt/groan in various tones for things, and throws her front paw or butt at people who need to be petting her lol!)
9 week old Great Dane pups here. Had them since they were 6 weeks old. Notice that each week they sleep longer. Easy to potty train and really smart.
How many 9-week olds do you have?
Great Dane Care two. I have a couple videos on my KZhead account if you’d like to see them. The first is when they were six weeks old running in my yard with my son, the second video they are 9 weeks old playing with their toys.
Oh my goodness all these cuties are not lazy. They are just babies ❤❤❤❤
These are all super accurate. My 8 month old pup Athena loves to sleep but as soon as I try to go anywhere, she has to follow. Then as a pup she gets stir crazy, so walks and dog park are super good for her as she loves to socialize and make new friends and play. Her favorite things are chasing and kangaroo boxing... lol
Chase is one of Gus’s favorite games too 😄
Lovely
Deacon is our fourth and no, they are not lazy. Just not a yappy little ball of fur...lol. Right now as a puppy...dear Lord, a 5 month old is full of energy.
I am a Tarot Reader on KZhead with a Great Dane mix who is probably responsible for half of my subscribers lol… I Always appreciate your input and every video I've watched has taught me something important! My dog is a labradane but has mostly Dane traits
Everyone loves the pups!
Having many different breeds from Kelpies and Shittzus to English Mastiffs, id comfortably agree with this. If you're thinking 'all dogs breeds get excited when you go for a walk' then id like to introduce you to the English Basset Hound. Unlike its smaller American cousin, the English basset has about a 15-minute window walking before they give up. Im not just talking 'sit down because I don't want to walk', im talking '65pounds of melting into the pavement whilst everybody laughs'. Great Danes, however, have these bursts of 'Crazy Energy' where they go nuts for 20minutes and can play for an hour or two with other animals before exhausted. I refer to this as 'puppy mode' which seems to be a thing for my Dane even though he's really old now and a cancer survivor. Every now and then he just goes mental and runs head-first into a door. He's old and grey and still loves to play. So if you are a lazy person, Great Danes are a good option as long as you have room for them to run for 20minutes. They love to play fetch with themselves by throwing and catching the toy on their own. They really take minimal effort, lots of love and even more food. The biggest mistake you can make is letting them get away with something. 'you can sleep in my bed just tonight' on the first night i had him has resulted in 9years of sleeping with an elbow in my ribs. Every time a friend wanted to meet him, he struts into their house with no manners, climbs straight on their couch and stretches out. If he can fit, he will sit. So they sleep a lot and eat a lot but im not sure if Lazy is the right word... perhaps 'easily satisfied'.
I was kind of concerned that my dane was sleeping too much. Good to know that 16-18 hours of sleep isn't abnormal.
My Dane Seven is like Gus he sleeps when I’m not doing anything....he loves to play with his brother Monster (my pitbull) outside, as well as his ball, which is a basketball!!! I don’t think he’s lazy at all!!!
My dog is super energetic, and loves playing tag.
Gus loves to be chased 😊
My dane is definitely not lazy. He loves to run, he runs so fast. He goes and goes and goes and then sleep and repeat.
Yk being big n general is hard takes more energy but honestly there are alot of pros and cons to being big
I have a question, is it better to use a normal, around the neck leash or a harness? Like taking in to accounting the dogs safety.
My Great Dane is 2.5 years old. She still has so much energy. In the winter time we’re getting 1 hr a day of exercise with walks and the dog park. In the summer it’s about 2 hours. She’s constantly letting me know that she’s ready for ANOTHER walk by touching her leash. She runs in the apartment to chase her toys.
Good video but even though the great dane is lazy, it will be in full swing when ordered. And it's full of power even then . And what is that color.I wonder.KZhead distorts ..
My Great Dane Thor is a beast lol literally he is always moving it feels weather he’s up or downstairs he’s always moving so they are not lazy dogs they just love to cuddle their humans
They do love their humans!
This is so TRUE!!! My Dane can be snoring so loud you can't help but to think he's totally out of it, BUT, if I make a single move, he's up and ready to go wherever I do. When I get home from work, he has the biggest party for me, running through the house, bringing me his toys and chew bones, whatever he can find, but he won't do that for my husband. 🙃
My Great Dane is not lazy 😂 he loves to run loves to be active and I got him when he was 2 months old, he was always playing and running. I’m usually the one who wants to sit and relax but what does he do he comes brings the ball jumps around and bite my legs so I get up and play with him 😂 til I’m tired lol
We are VELCRO dogs, right Gus?! We HAVE to be with our people! Of course, I get to be with my girl all the time, but would definitely be that way at home no matter what! And don't forget our zoomies! Great Dane zoomies are NUTS, I'm told! ☺️💜
Definitely a Velcro pooch!
@@GreatDaneCare Right?! :)
@@GreatDaneCare RIGHT?! I mean, I have a good reason to always be with my girl, but I'd be with her as much as possible no matter what, it's just what we Danes do! :)
Take it from a 6'1" 260# guy,Danes are not lazy.Bigger means more energy expelled.Rest is essential.Thanks Zach!!
Great Danes live to have fun. My Oscar loves his walks and play with the ball. But my guy has now started to frighten other dogs. We have to keep him on a leash when we walk him. When he see another dog or cat or bird he pulls so hard that we cannot handle him. How do I go about helping him to calm down
I've had great danes off and on through the years, and hands down the Great Dane is my favorite. You're talking about are they lazy or not. Even if they are sleeping, they will be there at lightening speed if you need them. Story from high school. It was Halloween, I was a senior in high school. I decided to stay home and pass out candy. My folks were at the party and my brother had a sleepover. Anyhoo, the doorbell rang, there were 4 guys probably freshman year of college. Their intentions were clear, and they wished to do me harm. I told them they needed to leave immediately. I told them they did not want to even consider touching the screen door or I'd call my dog (she was asleep where they could not see her). Her name truly was Tiny, even though she was quite large. They started laughing and reached for the screen door, and I yelled Tiny as loud as I could. I didn't even her name fully out of my mouth, when she hit the screen full-throttle on her hind legs. Those trouble makers took off in 4 different directions - never to be seen from again. Miss Tiny just went back to napping. :-)
Your Dane 🐾🐾🦴🦴 is beautiful. Nice video 🦴🦴🦴
Thanks and thanks 😊🙏
My Dane looks like yours..he's 1yr 7 months...and definitely not lazy.
Do you have any advice on off leash training ? Or when you personally thought your Dane was ready ? :)
Work on getting a REALLY strong recall first. If it’s available, practice in large enclosed areas so that it gives the illusion of being open, but those outside fences prevent any disasters
they’re no more or less active than the human who owns them, it’s that simple. you’re lazy so don’t expect your dog to not be lazy too, after all it’s up to you to exercise them
16-18 hrs? Oooh, this is sounding pretty goood…
My first two where just like Gus, my puppy will likely be the same. We have 35 acres and horses, self exercising just doing chores.
That’s plenty of room to run and have fun!
Being that great danes always want to be with their owners is it okay to raise one when u only live in an appartement ?u will ofc take care of them and go for a walk 3 times a day
I get my first dane may 1st.
Woohoo 🎉
I have an extremely active Great Dane that wants to play 24/7
I find my girl plays hard and rests hard. She loves to take naps, pushed up against/on me and is ready to go at moments notice. There are days that are not good for being outside long. Those days I can expect the zoomies 3 to 4 times a day for an average of 10 to 20 minutes. Then it's back to resting.
Those are some long zoomies!!
@@GreatDaneCare LOL She's young.
She must be, Gus has the endurance for a whopping 2 minutes haha
Hi, new subscriber! Need advice. I'm picking up a female dane tomorrow. She turned 1 on January 17th. Shes only 70 lbs. Should I be concerned about her weight? She looks very healthy and parents are on premises. Will she grow until that 18 - 2 yr mark? Shes been eating Pedigree food. Not my choice. Slow change to new food or totally switch? What food do you recommend? Thanks in advance!
Thanks 😁 That’s a lot of questions! Rather than try to re-write our website here, you should just go check out greatdanecare.com for all of these answers 😉
Your description is spot on. My grand-doggie Lucy (#Lucybthegreatdane) is a couch potato until she decides it's time to play, and then she is very verbal about telling us what she wants. Two years old and full of energy. We can't go to the bathroom without her following us in. They are truly "Velcro dogs"...totally attached to their people. I've had dogs all my life and I must say Danes are unique.
I have great dane its kind of like a mix breed hes mother is a dalmatian and the father is the great dane
