If your friends allow it, visit the puppies often, watch how they interact with mom, each other, and you. Sometimes one will just shine for you. Keep in mind that you have another dog at home and think about whether you want a dominant or submissive female. If you want a laid back puppy or an adventurous puppy. If the mom is laid back and good with people being there and they have a positive environment in the litter box, you sit back and watch for awhile then you can see their personalities form. We did this with my current dog and she was the one that was off by herself and did not participate with the others as much. I knew this from the very beginning so I worked hard to socialize her and now she is very outgoing, loves people and other dogs, and is very affectionate and loves to be hugged.

well other then health tips (but you shouldn't be concerned with this, the breeders wouldn't sell you an unhealthy puppy) take your time in choosing. visit the puppies as early as the breeders will let you see them so you can take a look. then you can see what their personalities are really like (since you'll get to know them after a few visits). ask the owners to email you and keep you updated on new things the puppies are doing. maybe they'll say that a certain one is very curious and then another is very cuddly.

My daughter is very good with dogs never yells at them only speaks softly to them and they respond so well to her , she had a Great Dane sadly she died but she told me whenever she chooses a dog she always goes for the one that is sitting on its own or quieter, the one that doesn't mix in so much. I am Jealous of you getting a Great Dane they are beautiful Giants Good luck Alysha

Great Dane Puppy Buying Tips?
Last time we got a puppy was almost four years ago and I would lime to go over the tips again. We already know what breed, breeder and gender. It is a family friend who bred two pure Great Danes and the puppies are due late January, so will be ready for homes in late March. The mother is Brindle and the father is a Fawn. Both have the more square heads but we aren’t sure if they registered. Registration is not a huge priority though, none of our dogs havebeen registered and they have all been fine. We are looking for tips like choosing a certain puppy from a litter. Oh, and we want a female for sure, we currently have a Blue female who is five years old as of February. She is great with puppies (she has been around a Mini Daschund, Jack Russel/MinPin Mix and a Coalie Mix, as well as an adult Boxer) Tips are appreciated.

Thanks,
Alysha
