Geschichte
The Great Dane originates from Germany where it was used in WIld Boar hunting. This powerful breed was able to chase and bring down the aggressive Boar and was popular with landed gentry as a capable hunter. The British called them 'German Boarhounds', the name Great Dane is a mystery as they have no links to Denmark. In Germany they are still referred to as 'Deutsche Dogge' or 'German Mastiffs'.
Verhalten
One of the tallest breeds of dogs, the Great Dane holds the record at 44" at the shoulder (2014). They are a regal looking, friendly and dependable breed who love human contact. Being big softies at heart, they often forget just how big they are. They will want to climb onto your lap and cuddle up for a sleep even though they really need their own sofa. Often called gentle giants, they fit well into family life and are gentle, loving dogs. Good with children, but they sometimes forget their size and can knock a small child over by accident. Their height allows them to access kitchen worktops, so everything food related needs to be put away. They do respond well to training and often compete in competitions. They are peaceful and content within a home, making them a great addition to a larger house.
For such a large dog, Great Danes only need moderate exercise. Their massive frame means that they have a slow metabolism, resulting in lower energy levels. A leisurely walk will be fine for this breed as long as you are there to pay attention to them; they'll be happy. As young Great Danes grow very quickly, it is important to limit walks to prevent bone/joint problems. They can suffer from Bloat, so early recognition is advisable to get them treated immediately. Great Danes have very short fur, so require only occasional grooming.

Der perfekte Familien- und Begleit-hund - Jenny,
Obwohl Ihre Größe doch sehr imposant und mitunter angsteinflößend sein kann, ist die Dogge bei richtiger Erziehung und enger Familienanbindung eine der friedlichsten und entspanntesten Hunderassen die ich kenne. Eine Dogge möchte am liebsten immer, wirklich immer bei ihrer Familie sein. Für Zwinger oder Hofhaltung ist sie auf Grund ihres zu dünnen Fells und teilweise fehlenden Unterfell nicht geeignet. Wir haben in der Dogge, ein perfektes Familienmitglied gefunden, welches sich auch mit den Kindern sehr gut versteht und ihnen sehr viel Geduld entgegen bringt.
