Maybe for you there's no reason to be afraid of them, but I about get a heart attack just seeing one down the road. I was almost killed by a great dane who pounced on me when I was 4 (and no my parents didn't leave me unattended, I was playing at the beach right next to them), and I will never trust danes again. I'm in no way against the breed. I'm just afraid of them, and yes, if my neighbor had that many danes or dane sized dogs, I would move out.
