Training a 13weeks old great dane?

okey so i'm gonna get a great dane pup which is 13weeks old a male 1 and i'm really exited because i'm a big dog lover! the problem i'm having is that the dogs i've had before were not big and so there was no need of specially training them since they can be handled very easily.. though i've searched alot on the internet about how to tran a great dane i couldn't find any.

i've learnt that great danes are very kind playful dogs and love human presence. but it specifically says that the dog should be very well trained to be obidient to the owner... and that left me a bit nervous

so any tips on how to train a great dane are really appreciated! thank you!

How big should a great dane’s dog house be?

My husband is planning on building our dog a dog house for outside. We have great dane mix puppy only about 5 months old, he's far from being full grown so i'm not sure what his full grown measurements will be. How big should an average great danes dog house be? we've looked at a few designs and we want to build one with a door on the front left side and inside it has a little half wall kind of thing so he can go to the right side and be blocked from the wind and rain and everything else. any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Rescue Member - STOP JUDGING... anywhere in my question did i say i lock him outside all the time? No i did not. I love my dog and he is a great companion. did it ever occur to you that when i do put him outside on occasion, that i would like him to feel just as loved as if he was inside with me? have you ever had so much company that you want your dog outside so he doesn't bother them? i don't want to just put him out in my back yard, this house is for him to be in when he just can't be inside with me! Thank you for all your help!

Suggestions on how to learn to be a good Great Dane owner?

I've always loved Great Danes and would one day like to own one. I've never had a dog, though, and want to make sure that A) I can handle a dog that big, B) I know how to properly train a Dane, and C) I have enough room for one.

I'm planning to one day get a Dane from one of the rescues run in the US and from what I understand, they make sure that you'll be a good owner before they'll give you ownership. But how can I prepare? Does anybody know how much room a Great Dane needs? (Will I need acres? I'm assuming Danes aren't apartment dogs - is that a correct assumption?)

Where can I find a Great Dane breeder in the Fort Wayne area?

I have never had a Great Dane, but I plan on getting on as soon as I get my work/school schedule worked out for good. I have read many books and online websites dedicated to Great Danes to find out more about the breed. So now I know the basics about owning a Great Dane so I can be prepared. But I was just wondering if anyone knew of any good Great Dane breeders in the Fort Wayne, Indiana area? I am looking for someone with a lot of experience and it's always good to find someone less expensive than most. Thanks!
