Is it Legal to Own a Great Dane in Dongguan? And How Much Does One Cost?

It is generally not permitted to keep Great Danes in Dongguan. This is primarily due to their large size and potential for aggression, which poses safety concerns in densely populated urban areas. Many cities have listed Great Danes as prohibited breeds because of these risks. If you are determined to have one, keeping it in a remote rural area might be an option.

The ban on Great Danes in Dongguan is mainly due to their imposing size and intimidating appearance. These factors can cause public unease. Furthermore, Great Danes have a considerable bite force and well-developed musculature, which, combined with their assertive nature, means they can pose a risk to strangers and have a higher tendency for aggression. To prevent potential injuries, many cities in China have placed them on the list of prohibited dogs. Again, if you insist on owning one, a remote rural area may be considered.

Great Dane Pricing

Generally, the price of a Great Dane is significantly influenced by its pedigree. Typically, a standard Great Dane of good health, but without a confirmed lineage, costs between 2,000 and 3,000 RMB. Many people choose to adopt these dogs as pets. A Great Dane with a purer pedigree generally falls in the 4,000 to 8,000 RMB price range. Show-quality Great Danes with the most prestigious lineages are the most expensive, often priced at 10,000 RMB or even tens of thousands of RMB.
