This gentle giant is very tall with a long body. Draw a big circle for the chest. Then add the head and hips with smaller circles.
The dog shown here is brindle colored. But Great Danes can also be black, blue, fawn, or harlequin.
fun fact
The name “Great Dane” makes people think these dogs are Danish (from Denmark). But the Great Dane (also known as Deutsche Dogge, meaning “German Dog”) is the national dog of Germany, where the breed originated.
