What Great Dane should you get?

Answer 1

A Great Dane is a Great Dane no matter what.

I think what you might mean is which great dane should you choose from a litter. It all depends on what type of a dog you want, and how much experience you've had with training dogs and great danes especially. Generally speaking it is better to get the one which is cautious when you first come to say hello, but will within a few seconds come to greet you. It is best not to get the first one to come up- they are usually extremely confident and will tend to be overly difficult to train, especially for a first timer. However, it is also best not to go for the adorable shy little one cowering in the corner, because they tend to be very nervous, and without professional training, their nervousness can turn into anxiety issues, which can also lead to aggression.

In other words, go for the one in between the two, and this rule generally applies for most types of dogs. Of course, you can never quite tell what kind of a personality the dog is going to have at a young age.

You should also know that great danes are a massive load of money, and require exceptional amounts of patient training, but not huge amounts of walking. When trained correctly, great danes are amazing pets for anyone, but when they are not trained properly, they can suddenly grow rather fast and rather difficult to handle.
