The Great Dane

Great Danes are eager-to-please, friendly, easygoing, and gentle with children in the family. They will bark deeply when someone comes to the door but aren't usually aggressive.

Introducing them at an early age to a variety of people and situations will help them become flexible and adaptable. Obedience training is very important for such large, powerful dogs. Training should be firm, calm, and gentle. Some can be heavy droolers.

They can live comfortably in the city as long as they get enough exercise every day.
