Great Danes need a minimum of two hours of exercise every day to burn off their excess energy and help keep them in shape. We'd recommend spreading this across the day rather than trying to do two hours in one go. It could be a combination of walks and off-lead exercise in a secure area.
Are Great Danes good for long walks?
Great Danes require moderately long walks two to three times per day, and a play session or two in the yard or a room with plenty of space. It's important not to over-exercise Great Danes, especially when they are puppies and their bones and joints are still developing.
Are Great Danes good walkers?
They are usually very gentle and perfect walkers, with no pulling. People love to stop and stare or comment on their size. They can have issues with their joints and such due to their size, but overall are a healthy breed.
How much exercise does a 5 month Great Dane need?
10-15 minutes off lead exercise for a puppy under 6 months of age is more than enough and may be too much for some puppies. A 5-15 minute walk around the block is appropriate for puppies under 6 months of age.
