Ready to Adopt a Great Dane?
Is adoption right for you and your family? If you are considering adopting a Great Dane, then please take time to read the following questions:
- Will the dog be left longer than 4 hours per day?
- Will the dog always live in the house – never in a kennel/shed?
- Do you live in a rented or Housing Association property? If so, do you have written permission to keep a dog?
- Do you have any experience with a Great Dane or a large breed?
- If you have children or visiting children, have they lived with a Great Dane or large breed, and managed with the size?
- Do you have the finances to keep a Great Dane? Food and Vet bills are expensive.
- Do you keep any other animals? If so, will the adopted Great Dane be accepted?
- If you keep other dogs, are they neutered or spayed?
- Will the dog accompany you on holidays, or will you make arrangements for a dog/house sitter?
- Is there a local park or fields to walk the dog, with a safe ‘off lead’ area?
- Is the floor covering in your house nonslip? Tiles, laminate, and wooden floors are too slippery for Great Dane’s feet.
- Does your garden have 5 to 6 feet high secure fencing totally enclosed?
- Finally, can you fit a Great Dane in your car?
Please consider further:
- Does your Vet have any experience with Great Danes or at least large breeds?
- Will you be prepared to travel to visit, and then collect your Great Dane?
