A majestic, affectionate giant

The Great Dane is one of the biggest dogs in the world. Powerful and elegant, his athletic appearance hides a calm, docile and totally unaggressive nature. Despite apearances, this giant is not made for intense physical activity. Very attached to his owners and his own space, the Great Dane doesn’t bark much - but does need good training.

Tall and slender, the Great Dane is characterised by his great height: a male will reach 80 to 85cm tall at the shoulder, and a bitch 72 to 82cm. Weight varies from 50 to 80kg depending on sex. His specific needs are directly linked to this impressive body.
