If you had to match him up to a colour, which one would it be closest to?
He looks like a Chocolate with Harlequin Spots. This doesn't exist in the real world and Chocolate is not a correct colour in the breed .
I'd say Scooby was a cross of fawn and harliquin dane known as a fawnakin.
There is a really cool site called
http://www.all- about-great-danes.com/faw ... that list some of the miss matched colors. Because the different colors of dane are not to be mixed or freaky colors happen. Blacks are bred to blacks, fawn to fawn, brindle to brindle and so on. There are some really weird colored dane out ther from accidental breedings.
Mm .. I guess brindle. He clearly has no stripes, but I think that at a glance, an apricot brindle looks more brown than a fawn does. Like, just glance at this:

It can kinda melt into brown at a distance, right? .. Okay, I'm starting to doubt myself. Maybe just fawn, then. Like these:

A light brown with black spots!:)
