   I have enjoyed using Diane L. Bauman’s Beyond Basic Dog Training along with attending training classes.

   Two young dogs at once is a handful, but I don’t think you should be criticized for it. Having two dogs is better than one since they get canine companionship! Plus they have companionship when you have to go to work or school or whatever. Just make sure you sign up for an obedience class. If you have a friend or relative that could come along to work the other dog, take both at once. Otherwise do them in succession, but you should take them to obedience school. And be sure to walk them often. For a book, read my blog (link below).

   For a female great dane, Tina is out as a name. I’d go with Mindy or Wendy.

   As far as names go, I like Tina best for two reasons. One, it’s my nieces name :), and two, dogs hear hard, sharp syllables like “T” and “K” better than soft, rolling syllables like “M” or “R”.

   Regarding the book, there is a very popular e-book/audio book combo known as SitStayFetch.

   You can find it at

   The book has a long-standing reputation in the online dog training community and has many satisfied customers.

   Before you buy anything, I suggest you sign up for their 6 day training guide that they offer for free. If you like the information you see in there, then you can make your decision.
