If I act like I’m crying my 10 month old Dane will go grab his toy and set it on my lap to try to entice me to play they are definitely in tuned with emotions it amazing

[@GreatDaneCare]

They’re more in tune than us silly humans!

8 things to love: EVERYTHING, EVERYTHING, EVERYTHING, EVERYTHING, EVERYTHING, EVERYTHING, EVERYTHING, and EVERYTHING!

[@GreatDaneCare]

Amen to that! 😊

[@FireCrow1961]

Just discovered your channel last week and immediately subscribed. I've had Danes for over 20 years so it's really nice to see a you-tuber who actually knows what they are talking about. I just lost my best friend Otis in November, he was a giant among giants. 225 pounds of pure love, loyalty and trickster. He died just shy of of his 11th birthday. I also had his litter mate Frisco who passed 2 years ago who was more normal size at 185 pounds. That dog was amazingly smart and my true love. Now that they are both gone I'm absolutely crushed. After crying for about 5 weeks we decided it was time to do it again. We just brought our new baby home on New year eve. The price of admission to living and loving these incredible souls is the heartbreak when they leave. My new girl isn't a replacement, she a new spirit, a new personality and I will love her as deeply as all my previous boys. Great videos, thanks.

[@GreatDaneCare]

I completely agree with that sentiment! We can never replace a great friend, but we can make new ones 😊

[@pandoraaaraseth1040]

YESSS, they are so gentle. My Elvis had a soft spot for tiny dogs, the tinier the better even though they all feared/hated him, he would accept them as well as cats biting on his lips, growling, scratching him JUST so he could be near them. He would sneak or ease his head in close to them and lay down taking all the abuse. Lol My poor sweet boy, I miss him so.

[@gerrifulmer2552]

Best and sweetest dog ever and always with you no matter what

[@GreatDaneCare]

They are indeed ☺️

[@texasrockshillcountry6574]

Absolutely!

[@texasrockshillcountry6574]

What a Sweet Puppy! Best Dogs out there! Love Them!

[@lizfoley-schwartz9392]

Our 1.5 year old Great Dane has all these qualities... To a T! The most friendly, bonded dog I've ever had! He literally dances with me when I play Fleetwoo Mac 😄

[@c.goldstr]

I recently adopted a rescue Dane pup (5 months) and he’s my first Dane. He’s an absolute goofball and I totally agree that they “need” humans! When I take him to the dog park he likes to make his rounds greeting the people there, then he greets the dogs lol. He his also very unsure about geese at the moment haha!

[@KH-tx6lg]

Dr. Pol's son said "once you have a great dane you never go back" I thought "nah" I've had several different breeds and I love them all. Turns out it true 😆 I can't imagine not having one now 💜

[@GreatDaneCare]

So true!

[@anitamoore6677]

We have a white Great Dane. She is deaf but if I could have another Dane that is sweet as our Lucy deaf or not I would gladly take them. She lays across my lap in my recliner. The only thing I don't like is she can't hear me tell her I love her. We talk to her as if she can hear us. I know she knows how much we love her with all the kisses and hugs we give her. I would never have any other breed after having Lucy. I'm 71 years old and Lucy and I hang out together every day.

[@detroid2699]

Aaawwww cute dane

[@chriswebb1111]

I lost my dad on April 12th 2022. Hudson my 3 yr old helped me so much with my grief. He would just lay on my chest and absolutely knew how upset i was and did everything he could to make sure i knew he was there and wanted me to be ok. Love my danes.

[@milfuentes]

❤😂 I so agree ! All of your videos are 100% super, very important also to make people understand before just buying one !My GDs,all of them ,over many years, would also confirm ...,all having been rescue cases

[@angelwillem3160]

All true!! I just experienced #4, I had surgery and was home for 3 weeks and my Great Dane Moose did not leave my side! ❤ Great Danes are the best!!

[@GreatDaneCare]

Such a good pup ☺️

[@jolenefader3358]

100% agree!! Whenever we go to the dog park, yes they play and have fun, but they always have to keep an eye on us! They continuously come back to us to make sure we’re good.

[@GreatDaneCare]

I like to think of them as “people dogs” 😁

[@DM-qo6qr]

Well this is going to make me cry. I thought my Luci was seeking me out for her comfort when at the dog park- now I’m starting to think she’s actually checking in on me to make sure I’m okay 🥺🥺🥺

[@karentiger8812]

I watch my 10 month old nephew and it amazes me at how gentle our 4 month old Great Dane is with him. I am still diligent of course, especially when he is playing with our older dog, but he seems to understand to be gentle with him (even if he sometimes knocks him over)

[@monicafiallo1344]

We miss u we need more videos how’s Gus ?

[@glendaayala5894]

Gus is the BEST. I ❤️Great Danes 2. I’m glad you are doing good 😌. God bless you and I go to pray for Gus 🦴 for provision hehehe 🥰

[@Bbelblelo]

gus is so beautiful ❤️ and its all true! my last dane Harper was so in sync w. me til the end, just so loving and sweet. and a huge goofball. I had her for 10 yrs and had to say goodbye in July and it's been really difficult and empty w.out a dane. I don't think I'll ever have such a sweet dog again. honestly I couldn't even watch these types of videos til now, i'm flying across the country for my new dane pup in a few weeks and I'm definitely ready to have a dane in my life again. it's brutal to lose them and I will miss her forever but it's also painful not to have one. I don't think I could ever have another breed, thank you for these videos!

[@tracytharrington187]

We have our first Great Dane and he is 7 weeks now. We are totally in love and shocked on how fast he is training.

[@GreatDaneCare]

The only thing more shocking is how fast they grow! ;)

[@Redviper-sv6zf]

I think Great Danes are the cutest dogs as well

[@mitalparikh3374]

Hey Zach you are a great dog owner . A lot to admire from u mate ☺️

[@Trufit99]

Love the videos really loved a lot. What size harness does your Dane wear?

[@EternalTransformationsTarot]

I just adore your channel, style, and information! I have a Tarot reading channel and my sweet Dane lab mix that I adopted stays behind me in the videos and I'm pretty sure half of my subscribers are only there for her! Lol thank you for all the great info it has been incredibly helpful in my journey of getting to know her beautiful spirit and how to bring out the best in her❤

[@ling7739]

Thank you🙏 I appreciate your information. I have two and I'm always eager to learn more. Even though they teach me😊 I had newfies for 25 years and they're great dog. However, once I brought a Dane into the family 🤗🤗

[@GreatDaneCare]

Glad it was helpful!

[@lawclerkthroughaservicedog7510]

Omg, YES, Gemini goes to people at the dog park as well! Velcro dogs! Amazing though! ☺️💜

[@annafields1242]

My just turned 10-month old Blue, Sydney - also a female, is already Gus’s size! Snuggling with her on the couch is a favorite. She follows me everywhere and can’t wait until I come home.

[@GreatDaneCare]

145 pounds at 10 months is a big girl!

[@noreavad]

Great first minute of the video. It felt like a disclaimer but it is quite important to state. ! Kuddo

[@michaelsilverman9686]

My female Blue Dane checks all 8 boxes! love your channel !

[@GreatDaneCare]

Glad to hear that you're enjoying it :)

[@jacquelinevaldez4710]

It's funny when I have conversations with my boy. He'll make a noise and I try to imitate it then the conversation starts...but I have clue to as to what we're talking about.

Happy New Year and wishing you all health, happiness, peace and joy. Keep thelove flowing xxx

[@GreatDaneCare]

Thanks and same to you!

[@nancyschwartz3500]

Hi Zach! Would you be able to provide any information on which dog boots and blanket jacket you use for Gus? We are struggling to find snow boots for our Great Dane and would really appreciate any information you can provide. We got a jacket that seems to be fine but I would love to learn of any additional jackets you could recommend. I read your article, “Do Great Danes Get a Winter Coat?”, in which you recommend Bark Brite dog boots. Are there any additional boots you can recommend because those don’t seem to be ideal for the snow? Could you specify what winter coat you use for Gus in the article? We live in Minnesota so our Great Dane, Mia, would really benefit from your recommendations.

[@trick351]

Glad you’re feeling better! Harper only left my side to eat and go potty for 4 days. Even laid by the tub while I took my bath. 💗💗💗

[@GreatDaneCare]

They’re such sweethearts!

@@GreatDaneCare I want more!!! The thought of losing her is just heartbreaking 💔🙏🏼❤️

Hi ! Would you be able to post a video on what are the first items you need to buy and prepare for to bringing your Dane home for the first time? I will be adopting my very first Dane and need help on what I need to get. From no dogs to a Dane. Help please 🙏 😔🥰 Thank you !!!!!

[@Tigerbuysplants]

Tiger my 9mo old farts a lot! and does a lot of funny noises when stretching or sleeping/waking-up from sleep, also makes funny chirping/whiny noises randomly

[@MrDizin18]

hi, i'm from brazil, and i have 2 great danes, what do you do with the exchange of hair? my dogs drop a lot of hair everywhere! =/ i dont know what else i can do with this "problem". can you help me? (I'm sorry about my english, i'm improving it!) i Love your videos and the Gus of course!

[@faithmiletello1483]

Hi Zach! Needed a tip, we are headed to Colorado with our Dane (never been in snow) do you take Gus out in the snow? Is she okay to take walks and such and does she get cold? Want to make sure ours is comfortable and we get the right gear! Thanks!

[@GreatDaneCare]

Yes, she goes out in the snow and loves it! For short outings you don’t need to worry about much unless it’s REALLY cold outside. When it’s super cold we’ll put dog boots and a horse-like blanket jacket on her

[@nathangarcia4522]

I agree with all of this as my daughter and I are watching with our own 24 week old blue boy Donar.

[@GreatDaneCare]

Sounds like great company to me 😉

[@nathangarcia4522]

@@GreatDaneCare it certainly is. He often watches TV too, does Gus?

[@GreatDaneCare]

Not really, but she definitely wants to hang out with us while we do

[@nathangarcia4522]

@@GreatDaneCare the funny thing is it isn't always dogs or animals that hold his attention. It is often random sitcoms or sports

[@kirstenreneefrancis8702]

Great Danes are the best dogs 🥰.

[@vaporoustick6782]

We were thinking of adopting a Great Dane and a weiner reimer. We already seen the weiner reimer and it’s friendly but will a Great Dane be friendly to it they are both puppies that each live with a lot of dogs.

[@CodingAbroad]

I know it’s not best to leave a dog alone, however sometimes it’s unavoidable. How many hours max would you leave gus alone?

[@Lgarto]

I probably shouldn’t joke about this, but I will often make the crack that my little Dane wants to get me sick. She goes up to almost everyone at the dog park for a quick scratch and maybe to lean against them for a bit. But heaven forbid that any other dog comes up to me for a pet; she then wants my undivided attention.

[@GreatDaneCare]

Definitely attention hogs at times 🤣

[@hectorzamudio7344]

Hi, I was wondering if you had any insight on an issue I’m having with my new Great Dane puppy. I got her from a puppy store 2 weeks ago and got along with our other dog great. The problem is that she is very scared of everything and especially my wife and I. She acts like she’s been through some trauma because of how sacred she acts of us but the thing is she’s very friendly with literally every other person she meets. This is very heart breaking for me and my wife as we try really hard and do nothing but show her love but she’s scared of us. Is this something that happens with Great Danes? We are feeling very bummed out and wondering if she’d be happier with someone else. Thank you

Gus looks more like a grumpy teen

[@KickArs]

Have you ever mentionned that when they go from pup to adult size people should expect since they grow so fast that they will pee and poo at least 4 to 6 times a da?. Dog pads is a must for at least the first 6 months. My gf was surprised how much Brindle peed and pooed. I told her that they grow so fast that they must but it's only while they are growing up. He's going to be 2 February 3th. Drake my other dane died 4 years ago for a twisted spleen. What are the odds? Anyway, they are the best dogs ever.

[@cdezzz]

I’m not trying to be offensive, but I’ve had four Danes all raised from pups. We’ve never used dog pads, we’ve had them all trained within two weeks.

[@KickArs]

@@cdezzz No It's all good. I work on a 8 days away, 6 days home, 8 days away, 20 days home schedule. When i was home it wasn't an issue. Just when my gf had to go somewhere, the pup needed to go often. As you know they grow quite quick so nature demands. As to how fast they learn to go, it was just about the saem as you.

[@starfoxloves]

My blue's dad had an episode of splenic tortion also, while the breeder's son was babysitting him. Bless his heart, he managed to get him to the vet in time 🙏 It's not as common as stomach tortion (i.e. bloat) but it does happen! Something Dane owners should be aware of!

[@KickArs]

@@starfoxloves If I would of known I would of saved Drake. it took a week for him and under the knife to figure out that it was a twisted spleen. I search the net like crazy but there was always one symptom that didn't fit. Of course, after I knew, all the symptoms were there. The vet never figured it out either probably because of the other vet that just kept Drake under surveillance for the whole weekend without doing a darn thing. Anyway, More people should know about it. I'm happy that you were able to save your blue's. Never again will i be fooled by this.

[@GardensLadyBug]

My girl has been great with my grandchildren and seems like she can't wait to meet the newest baby from outside her crate. Her biggest issue, at this point, is not realizing how strong her pushing, nose sniffs are. She alerts me to my grand son's dirty diapers and has toppled her little man, whom she adores.
