The Great Dane is the largest of all the breeds of dog. Classed as a member of the working group by the Kennel Club (Great Britain) and as a working dog by the American Kennel Club, its name is derived from "the old Fench designation, grand Danois, meaning Big Danish".(ref Great Dane in The Complete Dog Book page 271
