The Great Dane is like a gigantic, furry tower that decided to walk around on four legs instead of standing still. Imagine a dog that looks like it borrowed a giraffe's neck and a horse's legs, but with a face that says, "I’m a gentle giant." Its coat comes in a bunch of colors, like a box of crayons that got splashed with water. This creature is so tall that it might accidentally knock over a coffee table just by wagging its tail. It’s the kind of animal that seems to think it’s a lap dog, even though it could easily arm wrestle a human and win.
