Welcome to the forum.

I am surprised that you have trained Great Danes for military purposes. Normally they do not have the drive to do that kind of work. I would love to hear more about how Great Danes are used and your experience with their temperaments. I think that would be incredibly interesting. Often America dumbs down dogs and I think the Great Dane has suffered horribly here in our country. They have little to know drive, they have been made to be much more feminine and slight boned than their European counter parts as well. Granted, some of the European Danes are a little over exaggerated, but for the most part I prefer a more substantial Dane than we are on average producing.

I believe that great danes nature is kind and his owner attentions seeker but this breed is very sensitive to smell explosive material like mines which have come near with rain , perhaps this ability is for the weather of iran or not but its so useful for searcher unit of army for example his act was as well as jerman in iran

Question: What do people feed their dogs there?

Not a standard food like bosch products . shepherds feed their dog by the dry bread mixed in boiling water that have bones , barley , sugar and some luky times added by hens claw named "ghovati" but in city dogs eats dog food conserve . its so incredible that in village you can see sarabi or kochi breeds which all day run nonstop near the herds , eat little food and grow well and big !

That is very interesting information. I always wondered what people in different parts of the world fed their dogs. Thank you!
