Dog breeds: Great Dane
The Great Dane is a large dog breed that stands between 30 and 32 inches tall and can weigh up to 120 pounds. They have a short, dense coat that comes in harlequin, fawn, black, brindle and blue. If you have children then a Great Dane can be a great family dog, however, they should be supervised when playing together. Because of the deepness of their chest cavity you will want to keep them quiet after they eat so that their stomachs don’t flip. Other health problems commonly found in this breed include hip dysplasia, bloat, and heart issues. Because of their large size this breed often has a shorter life span. It is not uncommon for this breed to pass away from natural causes between 8-10 years of age. Consult with your vet about how to keep them healthy for a long life.
