Please find the following info helpful ...But know we did a trial run a few years ago by accident...All pups were placed and EVERYONE Loves their Daniff. Several have asked for me to do it again because of the outstanding size and temperament of their pup! I have been breeding QUALITY Great Danes for over 25 years and many years ago I chose the Cane Corso for various reasons but not short of my families protection and both the Great Dane and Cane Corso are so simular but then also different. I Simply LOVE Them Both!!!
We ONLY Breed Quality Lines in both the Great Dane & The Cane Corso so just because its a HYBRID Doesn't Mean its any Less that Near perfect!
The Daniff is very large-sized dog breed. The size of the dog may slightly vary based upon the size of the parent dogs used in breeding, but you can expect an adult to weigh between 100-150+ pounds and reach a height of 28-34+ inches.
These dogs love people and do well with children, though small children should not be left unattended with an adult Daniff since the breed's massive size can easily knock over kids unintentionally. This breed also does well with other pets, especially when they are introduced to them at a younger age. They willingly accept others into their family and will watch over them with a caring and protective eye.
This is a low maintenance dog breed. Their coat does not shed very much and should therefore not require much cleanup or brushing--once a week should be adequate. These dogs do need daily exercise; a 30 minute to one hour walk should be sufficient.
Daniff Breed HistoryThe Cane Corso and the Great Dane are Both Mastiff ancient breeds with extensive history, but the Daniff itself is a fairly new dog breed and because of this does not have a very detailed history. It is likely that this breed originated in the United States in the past few decades. The International Designer Canine Registry recognized and began registering the Daniff in 2009.
Daniff AppearanceAs a crossbreed, these dogs will inherit physical traits from both parent breeds. Not all Daniffs will inherit the same traits which means some may have more Mastiff characteristics, others may have more Great Dane characteristics, and some may show a mix of both parent breeds.
Most Daniffs have a Great Dane-like appearance, but are rounder and thicker due to their Cane Corso side. They have an athletic, muscular build and a short, sleek coat. Their head is large and framed by two soft, floppy ears that fall forward onto the cheek. These dogs are great at conveying emotion through their dark, inquisitive eyes and their facial expression.
Daniff TemperamentThe temperament of this dog is dependent on the behavioral traits inherited from its parents. Some will inherit traits from the Great Dane, others the Cane Corso , and some will have a mix of behaviors inherited from both parent breeds.
Despite their size, Daniffs are gentle and caring dogs. They will form a strong bond with their family and should be able to socialize with other pets. They are protective, though they are not aggressive, usually it will bark to alert its owner that someone unfamiliar has arrived. These dogs have no issue accepting others into their home if they see their owner's approval. Other than that, Daniffs should not bark a whole lot, and are generally pretty laid back. Training should not be particularly difficult as these dogs are perceptive and willing to please their owner.
Daniff and StrangersThis dog may initially be suspicious of strangers, however they shouldn't be aggressive towards people they are unfamiliar with (typically they will bark and leave it at that). Once they see that their owner approves of a new person, they should be welcoming.
