Re: Last one to prove my North Texas sucks to raise your family
My family has been raising GREAT DANES for over 56 years...Moms an AKC Judge, former professional handler...
we have bred, raised, trained, shown and sold a lot of danes...they are very smart but very docile...to make one DEMAND RESPECT from all people is not easy but it can be done...
There is a German method (i forget the name) but I don't like it...kind of brutal...
The best way is teach basic obedience and from that point work on the rest (treat training is my way but there are many) The advantage of a DANE is the size alone is a big deterent...
Many other larger breeds are also great dogs for training...the traditional (DOBE-GERMAN SHEPHERD-ROTTIE) carry the additional association of being common attack trained dogs so that alone can be a great deterent...
I have seen TRAINED MASTIFFS, St BERNARDS, IRISH WOLFHOUNDS, CHOWS etc etc once saw a attacked trained BASSET HOUND (ears and all)
