Well, paraplegic here, our puppies were just born 2 weeks ago so we’re awaiting their homecoming. I’ve had dogs my entire life, para since age 17. Mom of 3 and dog owner and lover. Have definitely been able to maintain a dog, but I’m super excited about training my Great Dane early and enjoy the journey. I’m new to Danes and to your channel, but looking forward to trying out all the ideas, just from my wheelchair.

Thank you for the information. I tried it and it worked initially my Dane was always trying to grab the leash and pull me for a run 😂. I can run/walk him now without a leash

I just got a great dane puppy. Learning alot from you. Subbed

Thank you! My family and I adopted what we *thought* was a Catahoula hound dog mix puppy during social distancing (we live in Colorado too, shout out!). The family who adopted her sister did a DNA test, and it turns out she's a Great Dane!! We've only had German Shepard and Rottweiler mixes before, so a Great Dane is a whole new world... your channel has been so helpful these past few weeks! I can't wait to try this game with little Daphne Doo tomorrow. :)

That’s right - no Divas on set 😅 Gus is handsome and such a lovely dog! Our Great Dane Puppy moves in next week.. 23rd of May! We are soooooo excited! He will be blue as well and our breeder gave us the opportunity to take part on every step of their way becoming a 9 week puppy. And because of you sharing your experience I really want our „Krümel“ become as happy and balanced as Gus is! Please give her a special hug for being an ambassador for her breed 😅🥰!! Have a nice week to come and stay healthy!!

I just found a rescue that is about 18 months old. Super good dog. There were several at different rescue groups in MO and other states. Google Great Dane rescue and keep checking back and be patient. Good luck

My fav doggie

Most of the time my great dane walks well but has on occasion pulled me what do you recommend a collar or harness. She weights 155 and I weight 102 so what do you recommend for the best control. Thank you I really enjoy your videos

Your videos are the best! This is what people need with great danes, very everyday issues;) I have a 2 1/2 year old female spayed dane/mastiff, my question is "did gus ever go crazy on walks everytime there is another dog?" She has been thru training, she is very obedient in every other way, but this🙃 if you have any ideas I trust your opinion, Thank You😊

@@GreatDaneCare That would be great when you can😊 it is one thing they should teach in dog classes, instead thru all her classes except first puppy class, you were instructed to keep dogg away from them and never meet on leash. Now I don't feel comfortable taking her for walk for fear of seeing another dog. So when you can I will be patiently waiting to watch it. You and your family stay healthy!😊

Do you still use your fi collar with gus? Can u do a updated review? Thx

So I have a she will be three months in a week and she is stubborn to where I walk her and she’ll sit down and won’t move I was trying to see I will definitely have to try to do this method but if you have any recommendations I watched most of your walking videos on leash

So our great dane puppy is socialized and still barks like crazy at people. Do you have any tips other than keep socializing her to get her to stop barking?

I noticed in this video there is no distraction (like children or other dogs) my great dane would drag me across the field to play ! How do I stop that? The only thing I have used that is effective is a shock collar.

My Dane is a 13 week old puppy he becomes stubborn by not wanting to go for walks initially I have to nudge him along then he will begin to walk but then he will start to sit down and kind of try to resist me especially when going up and down stairs any advice on correcting this behavior

my 3month old doesn't move when I use a leash. He whines and sits, doesn't budge .This is my 1st Great Dane. Please help!!

Curious at what age we should practice leash training. We just got our Great Dane puppy on Saturday and he just turned 7 weeks. Amazingly his neck is a little tiny for current collar.

Great Dane Care and I’ve gotta ask what you think we should do while he’s still small collar wise? Regular around the neck or get him used to something like a small joyride harness? I’ve read the section in your book but not sure for puppies.

@GreatDaneCare

I’d go with a collar to start then you can grab a harness if need be.

Great information. I can do this with my dogs separately, but once I try to walk the both of them they forget everything. They do not want ANY type of treats when we are out doors, I've tried so many things (including safe human foods). Do you have any advice on how to do it when you are walking 2 great Danes? Thanks

My last female was never over 100 lbs. Even later in life she maintained this weight. She came from a very large litter, so maybe all of them were lighter than average. Her parents were pretty big though. She went to 6 weeks shy of 10 years old. The veteran was convinced her weight really helped her throughout her entire life.

Will this method work for Bulldog?

@GreatDaneCare

4 жыл бұрын

I don’t see a reason why it wouldn’t

This method is great if your active, but for someone who is elderly or mobility limited like myself this is not a great option. We started using a prong collar on our 11 month old last week and she immediately stopped pulling.

Another method is to turn in the opposite direction every time they pull. Like Zach said, keep them guessing.
