Weighing in at about 120 pounds, Scoobie is full of presence—both physically and in spirit.

Only someone with real Great Dane experience should apply, and being patient and committed to his ongoing training is important. Scoobie is very food motivated and learns quickly when treats are involved. He takes daily medication that helps him feel settled, and this will need to continue for life.
