Just throwing this out there but has anyone heard of using Great Danes, I just got a 12 week old female And before i bought her i researched her breed some more and i found out they were created about 400 years ago in Germany, they were a cross between I believe An English mastiff and some hound dog breed, But there original use was as a boar hunter, And from the sounds of it european boars are no joke in size.

If you read about ww2 era you will find that Hitler had some Great Danes that he hunted big game with and I guess he hunted boars quite often.

I found a clip from an old movie where it takes place in a jungle and they send 2 danes on a bengal tiger and these dogs were absolutely vicious on this tiger.

Im just curious, Im pondering taking the dog out with me, think it would be cool to see what she would do with a piglet, I got a stuffed animal pig that she loves to tear up, wonder if it would work on the real thing.
