My dog, Faith, is 3 years old and has never been in a crate before. But for 4H which is Showmanship, obedience, and agility i need her to get in a crate between classes. Like someplace she can relax.

She is a Great Dane so i cant go in the crate with her.



Answer
Well, I would start by just setting the crate down and just letting her sniff it and get used to it. Make it a fun place to go; place rawhide bones, treats, toys, anything she enjoys inside so she knows it is not dangerous. I would put a blanket with your scent on it inside so she can always feel comfortable alone. Now that's getting her to go inside. Once she is inside I would close the door (leaving some sort of entertainment object inside with the dog) and leave the room. Maybe for just a minute at first. Then come back in (to show her you wouldn't leave her) and praise her with love and treats. Over time increase the time were you are gone from the room.
Hope this helps!

I may be adopting a 1 year old great Dane. I'm curious to see how much the expenses are? Yes I will be giving him hwt medicatio , and won't be feeding him generic brand diets!


Answer
A good quality food will cost anywhere from $35 -$65 every couple of weeks depending on brand you feed...some great choices Taste of the Wild, Orijen, Acana, Merrick, From 4 Star, Canidae ALS, Canidae Grain Free, Earthborn just to name a few..I feed my Danes Taste of the Wild.... TOTW is a highly recommended food with many Dane owners/breeders as is Orijen.(Eagle Pack is not as well received or recommended as it use to be..fewer & fewer Dane people feed or recommend it any more. It has fallen out of favor since it was bought out and the formula changed..there are far better and more highly recommended foods out there now.)
Heartworm preventative depends on weight of your Dane, brand used and cost at a particular vet practice...so it can range from $100 - $200 per year Flea product again depends on size of your Dane, brand & vet practice...anywhere from $110 - $ 220 for 6 months worth.
Toys, beds, crates etc...depend on how many you buy, what you get, where you get them, etc so these can end up being as cheap or as expensive as you make it...obedience classes can range from $75 to over $100 There is no cut and dried cost to Dane ownership it depends on way to many factors....if the Dane came from a rescue or an irresponsible breeder then you could be looking at health issues at some point..
***a well bred well cared for Dane can live a good healthy life into their teens, many do just that. The average life of a Dane is 10 years which is the same for many breeds of dog...people are so use to seeing ill bred Danes that are unhealthy and shortlived that they automatically think this is the norm...it is NOT...also a well bred Dane is no more prone to health issues then any other breed/mix.Danes do NOT have health issues because of their size!!! The truth is Danes are less prone to hip dysplasia then Labs & Goldens, Less prone to heart disease then Dobermans, no more prone to bloat then any other deep chested breed...**********
