Great Video....Got your BOOK and I Love it. Reading and studying it. Please speak on what treats(training and otherwise) you give Gus who is Gorgeous. I never give my Dane Babies Rawhide or Pigears or any of that kind of junk. Thank you and Gus.
Having 2 Danes at any given time has been one of the best things in life for the last 30 years. Although losing a member of the pack has sad downsides, adding a new member has all the love and joy that reminds me daily why I'm happier than anyone else I've known.
We are picking our pupp in 12 days, so excited! Crate, bed, blanky, bowls, toothbrush, toys, chews, kongs, Kong brush as you recommended! All is waiting for our Loki!!!
That's me right now I have 2 12 week old boy from same litter but I did a year research on breeders she's amazing but wish I was warned about getting 2 from same litter but would never change it I love them
I got the only two females out of a litter of 13. They were the absolute best babies ever and they were so funny. Two completely different personalities but we never had them chew anything or get in much trouble cause they kept each other busy. I would recommend getting littermates but it’s not for everyone!
Your last comment is so true! We lost our beautiful, blue,Great Dane in February. Just a few day after her 7th Birthday. We weren't ready to lose our Mia. So cherish every moment you have with these wonderful dogs.
@@GreatDaneCare Thank you! Mia looked so much like Gus. At first it was hard to watch your videos. Everything you say in them are true! Gus is a beautiful dog! Enjoy her.
2 girls, a brindle and a blue merle from the same litter. They are something else entirely. We got to the point where we have one as an "outside" dog for a month or so while we house train the first one. And by outside, I mean our fully air conditioned garage and fenced in back yard. And once we train the first inside the house, we'll bring in the second. Cause trying to get them to mind while they're together is sooooo difficult🤣
3 weeks ago we adopted a 3 month old rescue dog. We were told she was a Great Pyrenees. Wrong...it is obvious she is a Great Dane. She looks exactly like other GD puppies on You Tube I see. So I have been watching your videos for information. As you stated, sure enough, she follows me around the house even when i move while she is sleeping. And her paws are huge. Thanks for the help in learning about this breed. I find your videos to be very helpful and informative in your organized and well spoken manner..
We got a 1 year old Great Dane female a few weeks ago from the shelter, and due to the sad story of her bother, we are getting her brother this weekend, hope it’s not too crazy!
I was fortunate enough to be able to take my girl to work with me or to be able to stay home with them. That being said there is never enough time so the one thing I would change is their lifespan.
Love your videos! Our harlequin puppy just turned a year old. Your videos have been helpful. One thing I wish you’d do a video on is the best toys for Great Danes. Hard to find a good list.
Your tips for paw care were great. I've started that and boy she does not like it! But I brush her while touching with my hand and heading towards touching with the electric burr eventually.
We LOVE our Gronk, but would not complain if he could learn to wipe his mouth after drinking. Man does our boy drool. Sometimes I wonder if any water actually makes it to his belly. It’s a good thing he’s so handsome.
We never recieved any info on our great Dane before we got him. They couldnt even tell us how old he was so our vet started all his vaccinations from scratch. Let me tell you it would have been great to know his temperment before we got him because he is wild. But we still love him. Also we are too afraid to take our great danes outside our yard as the neighbour across the streets dogs have already attacked ours. We dont want to put them through anymore trauma
Get pet insurance!! Danes can have a lot of health issues and their vet bills can end up costing their owners thousands of dollars. We did our research and found a reputable company that helped give us peace of mind knowing we would never have to let cost drive our decisions when it comes to our big fur baby!
We have Zeus on a kibble from Natures Harvest. It has supplements to help with the absent of grains. He also gets certain fresh fruit twice a week. A small mix of cantaloupe, honeydew and watermelon.
Getting an 8 week old GD puppy in a week. At what age should we start walking the neighborhood on leash? Assuming no more than about a half mile while he’s under 12-16 mos.
I’d start practicing walks right away so they learn leash behavior. You can slowly build up the distance earlier than a year, they just shouldn’t be forced to run on leash while they’re young
Great Dane Care thanks for the info! Wife and I got your book a few weeks ago too! We’re down in New Orleans so we’ll limit walks to early am and night time and slowly build endurance. Leash training in the backyard will also begin the next day! Thanks!
My Great Dane puppy is 3 weeks old. I visit her every Saturday at the ranch until I can bring her home at 8 weeks. I play with her ears. I put my fingers in her mouth and I touch her paws. Because the groomers and many CZcams dog trainers have said do this so they use to it. Wayne the breeder told me once she has all her shots. Is take her to groomers to get socialize with people handling her.
How do i keep mine from launching off of me or being a total nut case. Ive been raising dogs for 25 years and Coda is very sweet, but he gets into trouble being wide open. I have 3 other dogs and they all get along. He is very protective and runs out the dog door at 100mph. I did research before i got him.. hes a good boy.
Hello! I’ve been watching your videos for a few months now ever since we decided to get a Great Dane. We will receive our beautiful Dane on Saturday and are really excited. I have a question though. Our breeder is pushing a vitamin supplement called Nuvet. Do you have any experience with this? From my research I’m concerned it’s a scam that only benefits the breeders with a kickback. Any information is appreciated. Thank you
I have two months old great dane..suddenly from this morning he could not use his back legs properly.im worried,he is a baby...what could be the problem?can someone help
Hi, I am about to be the owner of a Great Dane puppy, we have a nice in ground pool, and we want him to swim- or at least enjoy the water. How should we introduce him to water?
Hey Zach! I just got an 8 week old Great Dane and he doesn’t seem to be food motivated. Can you please respond with some helpful tips on how to train him. When I tell him to come he seems confused even with his normal kibble he doesn’t seem to budge but will start whining. This is my first ever dog.

Daneiacs!! I love it!
Most certainly a bunch of Daniacs 😁
This is a great video! GD's are a special breed for sure. I wouldn't trade my Apollo for a 100 of another breed. :)
I know I love them 🤗

Thanks Robert and congrats on the new pup!
This is wonderful information. I love your Dane she is Beautiful! So shiny 😁
Glad you liked it and thank you!
gus seems like such a sweet heart 🥺
She’s a “great” Dane 😉
We got a 1 year old Great Dane female a few weeks ago from the shelter, and due to the sad story of her bother, we are getting her brother this weekend, hope it’s not too crazy!
Oh it will be, but good on you for getting him out of a bad situation!
Awesome video
I was fortunate enough to be able to take my girl to work with me or to be able to stay home with them. That being said there is never enough time so the one thing I would change is their lifespan.
Great Danes are one of the two dog breeds I want to own in the future so thank you!

Thanks! I haven't made a video yet, but you can take a look at our article here for a toy list - greatdanecare.com/best-great-dane-toys/
Ohhhh, thank you! I'm having a hard time with this also.
Your tips for paw care were great. I've started that and boy she does not like it! But I brush her while touching with my hand and heading towards touching with the electric burr eventually.
Affection and treats help 😉
Great video, my puppies are 3 months old already. Definitely a challenge but all together very fun, thanks for great advices!!!
Challenging but exciting times!!

Who did you get the Great Dane from?
Get pet insurance!! Danes can have a lot of health issues and their vet bills can end up costing their owners thousands of dollars. We did our research and found a reputable company that helped give us peace of mind knowing we would never have to let cost drive our decisions when it comes to our big fur baby!
My 1 wish would be to eliminate torsion or any other factor contributing to the shorter than average lifespan of the Great Dane.
My Dane has to have a grain free diet as he has allergies to different types of grains so you might say that he is also gluten free.
For dogs with allergies, it’s completely appropriate. Putting them on a grain-free diet for no other reason is the bigger issue
We have Zeus on a kibble from Natures Harvest. It has supplements to help with the absent of grains. He also gets certain fresh fruit twice a week. A small mix of cantaloupe, honeydew and watermelon.

God. I want one so bad but I only live in a 1200 square-foot condominium and I’m afraid it wouldn’t be large enough for my big baby.
How do i keep mine from launching off of me or being a total nut case. Ive been raising dogs for 25 years and Coda is very sweet, but he gets into trouble being wide open.

Our one 6 month old GD Ted, is a handful. Two would be insanity... the good kind though.
Yes, more than a handful! Haha

Also he isn’t very toy motivated either.
The best breed . The only thing I´d change about them is that I wish they lived longer.
Hi! I'm new to the dane world, doing my research at this point. Gus has such a great temperment, has she or will she be having any litters?
Gus was spayed a couple years back, so unfortunately she won’t be having any litters. Thanks for the kind words about her though!
5:40 umm there are 52 weeks in a years my guy
hi
I wish my dog likee me more than my wife.
You’ve gotta sneak in some extra good will with the dog then 😉
