Getting a Great Dane tomorrow...
 
I haven't had a big dog in about a decade. Anyone here have any experience with Great Danes? I've read they dont typically live as long as other breeds and vet bills can get ridiculous but I've wanted one since I was a little kid.

Smooth Fox terriers are the worst

Actually I did some research when I was in an apartment. Great Danes and Mastiffs are surprisingly good dogs for apartments.

Colleague of mine bred them back in the day. They are very docile dogs, big couch potatoes. Unfortunately yes, they aren't long lived compared to other breeds.

I know they're a much easier target at 500 yards than a pitbull.

They seem nice

I’ve got a female. The dumbest dog by far I’ve ever known. Sweet. But ****ing stupid

Had a Great Dane in the family when I was a teenager. She passed at 7 due to cancer.

Disposition wise she was a great pet, mello to the end. She was a big dog who’s sholder measured up to my hip. Not the most intelligent dog I’ve had, but had a heart of gold. It was my step fathers choice. Lots of slobber and big shits... being he oldest, I had clean up duty.

Best dog I’ve ever had (6) was our golden lab. She grew up with our kids, lived for 13 years. Putting her down was so hard, we have not been able to muster up to get another, yet..

Hope you have a big house and yard.

I have a dane and a daniff (mix between a Great Dane and an English Mastiff). The daniff is, by far, a better-behaved dog. Every dog is different, of course, but mastiffs are more laid back overall, and mixing the two breeds seems to have produced the perfect dog.

We love our dane, but we won't get another pure one. For us, it will be daniffs from here on out.

All of this, plus BTW, I have never known him to be " Great "?

Just think of the size of the turds you're going to have to pick up.
