History
----------
Some sources state that dogs similar to Great Danes were known in Ancient Egypt, Greece and Rome Various sources report that the Great Dane was developed from the medieval boarhound, and of the Mastiff and Irish wolfhound lines It is also reported that the Great Dane was developed from mastiff-like dogs taken to Germany by the Alans The breed may be about 400 years old The Bullenbeisser may be its direct ancestor, composing about the 40 of its make-up
According to Barbara Stein, The breed originated in Germany, probably from a cross between the English mastiff and the Irish Wolfhound; however, other sources maintain that the breed originated in Denmark, and still others report the question as controversial and unsettled In 1749 Georges-Louis Leclerc, Comte de Buffon used the name le Grand Danois, (translated by William Smellie (encyclopedist) as Great Dane) Up until that time the hound was referred to in England as Danish dog
According to Jacob Nicolay Wilse the Danes called the dog large hound, a terminology continued well in to the 20th Century
In Germany in 1780 the hound is referred to as Grosse Danische Yagd Hund (English Large Danish Hunting Hound) At the first dog exhibition, held in Hamburg 14-20 July 1863, eight dogs were called Danische Dogge and seven Ulmer Doggen
