The Great Dane is a dog known for its giant size, as it is one of the world’s tallest breeds.

This giant breed is also well known for its kind and gentle temperament, which contrasts with its strength, energy and power!

If you are the happy owner of this friendly dog, or are thinking of adding one of these gentle giants to the family, here are some dog toys and dog supplies that your Great Dane will most definitely love.

• The dental Kong extra large dog toy is perfect for your great dane.  These rubber toys last a very long time, are good for your Great Dane’s teeth, and they’re tough enough to survive the strength of your dog’s powerful jaw!
• The Air Kong squeaker fetch stick is durable, fun for both you and your dog, and a perfect match for any Great Dane, which is a breed that loves to play fetch in the park!  Kong makes fairly cheap dog toys, especially considering the life span of one of their toys!
• Dog coats designed for Great Danes.  This strong, light weight and weather-tough fabric will keep your thin, tall dog warm during those extra cold days.
• Elevated dog feeders. Because Great Danes are so tall, it is even more uncomfortable for them to reach their food bowl if they’re placed on the floor, three feet below their head. These adjustable elevated feeders are actually tall enough to reach your Great Dane, unlike other feeders.
• Peanut butter dog treats.  Almost every dog loves the taste of peanut butter, so why should that be any different for your Great Dane? Try freezing some dogdration in an ice tray, or try another healthy dog treat recipe!  The glucosamine found in dogdration will also most definitely help your gentle giant with any hip or joint problems they may be having.

Do your dogs destroy their dog toys almost the minute after you buy it for them?  Do find cotton stuffing and limbs of their toys scattered throughout the house?

If so, it might be time for a change in dog toys.  Try some of these dog toys, which are the most durable (and the most fun) brands out there:

• The Kong Company makes durable rubber chew toys that can be found in most pet stores.  These toys, made originally for large dogs, now come in all sizes to accommodate your pup’s bite.  Dogs love them because the toys are hallow, for owners to put treats, pieces of food or smear peanut butter in them.
• Fat Cat, Inc., a small, family-owned company, also sells a durable, but soft line of dog toys.  Usually big dogs destroy normal soft types of toys extremely fast, but these toys last much longer— they can even last for several years— because they’re made of very tough and durable fabric.  Though these products are a bit more pricey (anywhere from 10 to 20 dollars), they’re definitely worth it. These toys are usually soft, fabric filled squeaky toys (another feature that dogs usually love in their toys).   They also come in fun colors and creative, silly themes, like the Mailman, the Ex-Boyfriend, the burglar and more.
• dogdration – is our premium pet water.  You can freeze it in a ice cube trays and then pop an ice cube in a Kong toy, for example, or give your pup an ice cube to play with.  There’s no clean up and with no dyes or chemicals, your carpet and furniture is protected when your dog plays with a dogdration ice cube.

Both Kong and Fat Cat toys can be purchased at major pet retailers as well as at some major department stores and online pet retailers.
