| Overview: | The Great Dane is a huge dog with a sweet and gentle nature. He needs a lot of space for exercise, though he can be very calm and well-behaved indoors. |

| Character: | Great Danes are affectionate, calm, loyal, and intelligent. Although they do not bark very much, they make great watch dogs. |
| Temperament: | This breed gets along well with children, other dogs, and most household pets. They are usually wary around strangers, but are good with welcomed visitors. |
| Care: | The Great Dane should be grooming with a rubber brush during periods of shedding. |
| Training: | This breed grows quite large, so for an early lesson he should be trained not to pull on the leash. He's quite eager to please, so a proper approach should provide great results. |

| Country of Origin: | Germany |
