What kind of other dogs usually get along with a great dane?

We have a 1yr old great dane, a spayed female. We would like to get another dog that is not a dane, preferably about the size of a cocker spaniel or smaller (but not as small as a toy dog) ... We know that personalities will be the biggest deciding factor... and we would get the new dog as a pup but we dont know what kinds of breeds they tend to get along with... if you have a dane what other dogs do you have?

How old is too old for a Pomeranian to have puppies or get pregnant?

I have a 7 year old Pomeranian and I don't know if she is in heat or not. Or even if she can still get pregnant at this age. I can't find any info on this anywhere. Does anyone have experience with an older toy dog getting pregnant or having puppies?

Thank you!!!

How do I get my dog (pomeranian) to lose weight?

How can we get our 8 month pomeranian to lose weight? He's a toy dog and weighs 9 pounds, while the limit is 6 to 7 pounds. So, he's overweight by 2 or 3 pounds. Even though it's a little over the limit, it makes a difference for a toy dog's health. His skin feels fatty/ blubbery, but not too much.
We give him about 1/2 cup of food added with peas and milk (sometimes yam) twice a day. He also gets exercise- around 1 to 3 laps around our neighbour hood. His treat is a dried chicken breast once a day.
Thanks!!
