Remember It's very important to look for the right breeder take your time, there are many things people forget when looking for a puppy whether it's a dane or another breed. Health testing!!!! Check to see if both parents have had hips, thyroid, CERF (eyes) and Cardio checked if not ask why. A good breeder wants to improve the quality of the breed and help in the effort to diminish genetic health issues.

     Even though purchasing price is important be concerned if the price seems to reasonable sometimes quality affects prices. (I would like to also comment in my search when looking to buy my puppies I found a few breeder with extremely high prices who didn't do any appropriate health testing and bred to anything in there back yard) Also your food and vet bills will be higher with a giant breed. My 35# dog eats less than 2 cups of food a day and my male dane (155#) eats closer to 10 cups of food a day ( this will vary less or more depending on your individual dog and this also doesn't mean buy a cheaper food all dogs deserve a quality dog food).

     Your annual vet bills will be more working at a vet clinic I can tell you there is a huge difference in prices. Heartworm preventions is doubled, if they are sick they need double of antibiotics/pain relievers etc than your average size dog.

     Danes also like to be with people please consider how many hours you'll be gone a day. This is not a breed to have because it's cool. Being gone to much can affect them. Danes love to be loved and love loving back.
