Introduction

  • First emerged in German show ring in 1863.
  • The Dane is a very large dog requiring skilled ownership. It is generally gentle but its size and strength requires a strong commitment from the owner.
  • It is good with children and other dogs and does not require a lot of exercise or grooming.
