Dog Talk: Living with giant dog breeds


Joanne with her two huge dogs.

The first time you see a Great Dane, you might mistake it for a small pony. These dogs were bred to hunt wild boar and deer in Germany, so they are incredibly big and strong. Not, you’d think, a dog to have as a pet. But Joanne Raena Raj doesn’t have just one, she has two!

Joanne Raena Raj grew up in Subang Jaya, Selangor, but now lives in San Francisco, the United States. She lives with Levi, a three-year-old Great Dane and Leia, a three-and-a-half-year-old Boxer-Great Dane mix.
