According to the American Kennel Club, Great Danes are described as being friendly, patient, and dependable. The AKC also refers to them as the "Apollo of dogs." As part of the working group, Great Danes are a large breed that's both powerful and noble. They're known to be sweet and gentle giants, but also guardians of their homes and families.
Due to their patient and friendly personalities, Great Danes are eager to please. When training, it is best to have a consistent training schedule and be firm during the lesson.
Hans is about eight-years-old. He lives with his older, but much smaller sister, Belle who's a 12 year old Miniature Schnauzer. The two siblings and their family live in a great neighborhood where they have so much fun!
Brent, Hans's dog dad, says his favorite thing about Hans is the way he greets people. Hans is somewhat of a vocal fella and loves to say hello to everyone with a nice howl!
Why did Hans's parents contact Invisible Fence?
Hans loves to be outside as much as he possible can. Because Hans is such a large dog, Brent knew he would need plenty of space and freedom outside. This would help Hans release energy and be happier all around.
Brent and his family have used Invisible Fence before and knew that it was just what Hans needed. He contacted his local Invisible Fence Dealer for a quote and to find out more about underground dog fencing and outdoor containment solutions.
"The safety of our pets is of highest priority considering care and ownership of pets." - Brent
After working with Brent and figuring out what kind of solution would be best for Hans, Invisible Fence recommended one of our outdoor containment systems. This would help Hans by allowing him to stay outside and be safe, while also giving Brent and his family confidence in Hans's safety.
We value the safety of pets just as much as their owners - that's why the technology used in our outdoor containment solutions is so innovative. We believe pets should have collar and boundary settings adjusted to their size, breed, age, personality, motives, etc. And since there are millions of different types of pets, we need a technology that can be customized over a million ways. That's why this one outdoor containment system works so well for Hans and his sister Belle!
Now, Hans is able to full advantage of His yard and be safe while doing so. His family doesn't worry about him wandering outside of his boundaries. They know that he and his sister are safely contained in their yard at all times.
"I would recommend the product. We [have] chosen Invisible Fence twice now." - Brent
