How Much Does a Great Dane Cost? Price Guide and Picture Gallery
The Great Dane, also known as the Danish Hound or German Mastiff, has a noble and elegant appearance, a large body, full muscles, and great strength. Among large working dogs, it is the only breed with a well-proportioned build that can easily travel long distances. So how much does a Great Dane cost? Here is a price guide with a picture gallery.
1. How much does a Great Dane cost?
Purebred Great Danes generally inherit good genes from their parents, so they usually have good looks, and their temperament is also more stable and mature, making them easier to get along with people. Therefore, their price is much higher than that of ordinary pet Great Danes. However, whether in terms of bone mass or bloodline, this kind of purebred Great Dane has more advantages, so the price is generally around 5000-10000 yuan.
Pet Great Danes generally are not particularly outstanding in terms of bloodline and appearance, but their temperament can still fully satisfy living with people, so their price is much higher than that of purebred Great Danes, generally around 1800-3000 yuan.
Generally speaking, no matter what breed it is, as long as it is a show-class pet dog, it will go through strict screening. Coat color, bloodline, appearance, height, weight, and even the dog's walking posture all have strict requirements. Therefore, the price of show-class Great Danes is generally relatively high, exceeding 10000 yuan, and if they are even more outstanding, it may reach tens of thousands or even over a hundred thousand.
2. Will a Great Dane attack its owner?
Generally speaking, a Great Dane is completely devoted to its owner and very loyal. It will never behave like a Siberian Husky or Golden Retriever, which will treat whoever feeds it as its own parent and casually follow people away. It will always stay by its owner's side. So if you want to raise a tall, mighty large dog that is loyal to you, the Great Dane is a good choice.
The Great Dane has a lively and loyal personality. It has high obedience and is very suitable for training as a guard dog; by nature it is brave, highly defensive but not overly aggressive. Owners need to train the Great Dane to obey commands, otherwise if it shows aggression but cannot be effectively stopped, that is very dangerous behavior.
A Great Dane usually only makes an attacking move under its owner's instruction or when forced by circumstances, so the owner must effectively stop it; the Great Dane actually also has a quite gentle side, and its emotions are quite rich. Do not misunderstand it because of its appearance. As long as its owner keeps it company and slowly lets it know that you are not dangerous, you will find that it is a very gentle giant, like having a giant's appearance while a child lives inside.
A Great Dane needs to be trained when it is young, and try not to let it develop the habit of jumping on people. If this behavior appears, it must be trained not to do it while it is still small, so that this situation will not continue when it grows up. The Great Dane is large in size, and if it jumps on people after growing up, it may knock someone down.
