Growth chart not available
A Great Dane is above 40 kg (88 lb) as an adult. The published veterinary growth charts stop at 40 kg: the authors found giant breeds too variable to model. Rather than draw a curve we cannot back up, this page gives only the breed weight. Ask your vet to weigh your puppy at each visit and plot it on a breed-specific chart.
Great Dane size questions
How big does a Great Dane get?
The American Kennel Club gives 140 to 175 lb (64 to 79 kg) for males and 110 to 140 lb (50 to 64 kg) for females. Individual dogs can fall outside a breed range, and a mix or a dog from working lines may be larger or smaller.
Is there a growth chart for Great Dane puppies?
Not here. A Great Dane is above 40 kg (88 lb), the limit of the published growth charts, and the chart authors could not build a reliable curve for giant breeds. Your vet can track your puppy against a breed-specific chart.
