The Great Dane, also known as the German Mastiff, is one of the largest breeds in the world. Despite their intimidating size, these dogs are often nicknamed 'gentle giants' given their loving and good-natured personalities. They are friendly, dependable, and pay close attention to their owners. They can weigh anywhere from 100 to 200 lbs and have a lifespan of about 8 to 10 years.

The cost of a Great Dane can vary greatly depending on the breeder and the puppy's pedigree, with prices typically ranging from $1,000 to $3,500.
Great Danes are often considered good family dogs due to their gentle disposition and because they're generally less active indoors despite their large size.
While Great Danes do require regular exercise to maintain their health, their grooming needs are relatively minimal, making them not necessarily high maintenance.
The average lifespan of a Great Dane is between 8 to 10 years, though some can live longer with proper care, diet, and regular vet checkups.
Some downsides of owning a Great Dane include their shorter lifespan compared to smaller breeds, potential health issues common in large breeds, and the need for spacious living quarters due to their size.
Great Danes are sometimes referred to as the "heartbreak breed" due to the relatively short lifespan and health problems common among these dogs, which can be tough emotionally for their owners.
