Adopting a Great Dane

Frequently asked questions about acquiring an Great Dane - the pros and cons of adopting versus going through a breeder, and associated costs.

You can adopt a Great Dane at a much lower cost than buying one from a breeder. The cost of adopting a Great Dane is around $300 in order to cover the expenses of caring for the dog before adoption. In contrast, buying Great Danes from breeders can be prohibitively expensive. Depending on their breeding, they usually cost anywhere from $1,000 to $3,000.

The easiest way to adopt a Great Dane would be through a rescue that specializes in Great Danes. A great place to start would be to start a breed search on Adopt a Pet. The search will show you all the available Great Danes in your area.
