They do have some rowdiness during puppyhood, but if u spend some time correcting it, after a year and a half, you would end up having a gentle companion, who is smart and will steal hearts around ...

Great Danes are intelligent dogs and are VERY big. My dog on the other hand, he's a dwarf sized Great Dane. They are escape artists and can manage to get their small bodies under a fence without struggle. Be sure to keep things out of reach from them that can be torn.

Great danes are great dogs! They are very lovable, playful, and most of all lazy. A lot may think that they would not do well in apartment/condo living, but they suite both condo.s and apartment's great. Due to their health, they can't do any excercise directly after eating. Always wait at least an hour to take him/her out for a run/walk/jog. They are mostly suitable for apartment/condo living under the circumstance that they are walked daily for at least an hour. Great danes are kind, caring, and most of all gentle giants. I myself own two healthy great danes and I am very proud and could not wish for better canine companionship. Usually, great dane puppies don't damage furniture, but then again a puppy will always be a puppy, so you must watch out for your furniture. Hope this helped!

Well it depends on how you raise a dog. You can raise them to be mean and vicious or you can raise them to be nice and friendly. If the dog senses that their owner is being harmed its more likely for them to protect their owner. So it really doesn't depend on what kind of dog it is

The Great Dane can serve both as a watch dog & a guard dog. Itz giant siz makes it gentle and also terror in look and can run 1/3 the power of the tiger...........Itz totally a gentle Giant in home and Giant Predator at Farms during hunting.........

They are very loyal and protective towards their family, but are not good watchdogs for property. As an example, a few months ago my niece was walking my five month old Great Dane when a group of thugs began calling out to her and approaching her on the sidewalk. One bark and they scattered in five directions and have not been seen since.

Yes, most breeds of dogs are good guardians, with some individual dogs (not breeds) being better than others.
