I have a dog who barks at anyone. I don't know if being aggressive is natural to Great Danes. Do you guys have the same experience?

Usually Danes are very friendly towards Humans. If your dog is aggressive, then it may be due to bad temperament. But barking towards strangers cannot be considered as aggression. sometimes those dogs may actually call them to come near them. By default Great Danes are gentle giants....and when properly socialized with people and other dogs in the younger stages, you can be sure to get a very stable and gentle giant. Space is a issue but the bigger issue is the exercise given to the dog and time spent with it...if you are confident enough to have time for the dog then space shouldn't be a big constraint...of course these dogs are really big,especially once inside the house...
