When mentioning the name “Great Dane”, size is usually the first thing that comes to mind.

Hey, Carrel.
Your use of the phrase “attack mode” is pretty concerning, especially given the size of your pooch.
Anytime you’re faced with aggression issues, you will really need to work with a canine behaviorist — and the sooner the better.
I’m not sure if I completely understand the “fly swatter” comments, but just to be clear: Don’t hit your dog with a fly swatter — that’ll only exacerbate any fear or frustration he’s feeling and damage the trust between the two of you.
Best of luck!
