      Ah that makes sense. I’ve only met Danes in the black and white cow coat, but I know that they exist in lots of colours.

        That’d be a Harlequin. We have two Danes at the moment (black and brown, not Harlequins) and have had several. We love the breed, but they don’t live as long as we’d like.

            We had one die at seven. He was a good boi and we were heartbroken. Our PITA Dane lived till 11. She was a pain right up when we had to take her in. In the parking lot she wanted to fight rando dogs. Lol, give it up, girl. You can’t hardly move!

            We had one with medical issue and he died at three. He was a wonderful tempered dog and it was tragic. They are heartbreak dogs with those short lifespans, but they also are very cool dogs during their prime. We said no more Danes, but here we are again with two.
