Aren’t Danes just wonderful! I’m on my third one. Such goofy, sweet dogs. The size is the protection. My current one went way over size and scares everyone that doesn’t know her. She wears a pony blanket because dog blankets are way too small.
Absolutely. I’m on my first and he’s undersized, only about 115 lb. The beauty of intimidation by size is it works a lot better than intimidation by viciousness because nobody is really threatened or gets hurt, while neighbors, friends, and delivery people quickly learn your “vicious” dog is a big, slobbery love muffin.
