Imagine a thief entering the house and seeing Zeus. He'd die on the spot by a heart attack. Meanwhile Zeus: I thought you came here to play. Come on let's play

I’d rather face a dog like Zeus than a crazed, angry pit bull. Tall dogs like this are like extra tall (as in almost too tall for NBA) people. Kind of clumsy. I’m 6 1’ and 235 lbs. From the side I could push Zeus over and pin him way easier than I could get my hands on angry pit bull.
That's not a Zeus, that's a Clifford.

A counterpoint: I experienced a lot of death as a kid, pet and human. Life is short. Very short. And it’ll always end with death. It’s the love and time you get with another being that matters most. The loss hurts bad, but I try to remind myself often that the love is worth the cost of the pain.

He got his priorities straight
In my childhood I lived with a great dane. He was the best buddy for me. He even saved me from drowning although he was afraid of water. I managed to get to the water as a young child and he ran around me and barked to inform my parents. When the cats occupied his place on the couch, he was too shy to shoo them away. He was such a great companion and we were heartbroken when he passed away at the age of 9.

I'm pretty sure a friend of mine who's family has several great danes had one bigger or same size. This was 20+ years ago but I remember meeting that dog. He was in a lazy boy and it looked tiny. His front feet were flat on the ground and when he got up from it he got so much taller. When he stood on his back legs he'd tower over my friends dad who was taller than my dad (6'2 or 6'4). That dog was massive but such a sweet heart that loved everyone. Oh and he was like a dalmatianish kinda color pattern.

When I was a delivery driver, I came up to a house where, upon the door opening, I was greeted by a Great Dane that just about looked me in the eye. Biggest dog I have EVER seen. The guy who ordered the pizza looked like the type that wouldn't hesitate to enforce a Do Not Tresspass sign and here was this massive, unleashed animal, so I was just a little nervous. And then that great big beast looked up at me and flopped its whole enormous self into my torso so I could give him scratchies and pets. I almost fell over on the porch. Absolute sweetheart of a unit and a fond memory.

I have a Great Dane too. He’s not nearly as big as Zeus though lol, but he’s still large… I mean, he is a giant breed lol. I get a lot of “saddle” and “horse” jokes too. GDs are stubborn and very laidback dogs. They are protective when they need to be though. I’ve never had to worry about the black bears in our neighborhood, because he’s about the same size as them and always scares them off. I never imagined that my first dog would be a Great Dane, but my husband is a giant too (6’4) and he didn’t want a small dog since he was worried he’d trip over them… so we got another giant to add to the family. Love the breed ❤️

My dad is 6'4" and our baby Dane has knocked him over... so I feel your "worried he'd trip over them..." comment but it didn't end up that way for us!! To be fair, grandpa likes to spoil the baby... which hasn't worked out great for him since she now knows he'll let her get away with nearly anything. We're trying to train him though (dad, not the Dane... she's well trained already!). :D

we just got a Dane and I love him so much. they are the sweetest! Ours is a "mini" Dane, kinda the runt of the litter at 110 lbs. He has a birth defect in his front right paw so its way shorter than the others and he doesn't have a real ankle, paw, toe or paw pads. He requires special wrapping every day to protect it and a prosthetic to get around. but we dont mind the work because he brings extra happiness because he knows we take care of him. His name is Nemo because why wouldn't it be. He makes everyone he sees happy... unless he gives you a great dane punch with his prosthetic, then you're not as happy lol
I saw that you like in Keller, TX? (From your husband's t-shirt.) We live in Weatherford, and we adopted Gantu in Dallas last August (was on the DFW Danes site). Gantu is 3 inches taller than my late Osborne (assed from cancer in Jun 2022), but Zeus seems bigger than Gantu. Wow! Hope to meet Zeus one day. PS---Both of my Danes are Merles, as well.
What a friendly giant!

I LOVE that thumbnail pic. You can see Zeus is apart of the family. Hes not just a dog. Thats how it should be. They shouldn't be expendable because you want a new apartment and don't want to find one that will take pets, leave in a hot car, leave out in the cold, never take them on walks... you treat them as you would want to be treated. Beautiful family. You can tell Zeus is happy as can be.

Yes, they do have shorter life spans. The breed, like most purebreds, is bred a particular way to achieve “standards.” Which includes a as frame like his that the heart cannot sustain for very long. She mentioned he runs around for a little bit and gets tired. It’s because his heart literally cannot support his body. It’s actually quite sad. But as long as people continue to pay for breeds like this, it will never stop.
