ANNOUNCING: Trevi, a littermate of our Nisha (and one of the precious little black puppies lined up at the top of our website), is all grown up now and taking the AKC show circuit by storm!! After winning an Award of Merit at Westminster his newest accomplishment is being the number one ranked owner handled Great Dane in the US! 

We are so proud of our big, gorgeous black son of Willow and grandson of Chloe. His grandsire is the famous Biss Champion Longo's Millertime! Ozzy from Von Bruno Danes was his sire! 

Great job Amber and Trevi!!!

Trevi Wins an Award of Merit at Westminster 2-11-14! 
 And Sister Nisha Wins a First Place at the Great Dane Nationals and is a New AKC CHAMPION!

Trevi's sister Nisha has a litter due June 13th 2014. More info and picutres coming soon. 

 

All puppies below this point are from past litters and are sold!

This breeding was carefully considered for the conformation and quality of the bloodlines of the parents and what we feel will be passed on to the puppies. Both parents come from top bloodlines with Ramses, the sire, being the grandson of Biss Champion Sharcon's Tomahawk from Sharcon Danes. His owner, Maureen Clark of Sharcon Danes raised up Tommy to become the #1 Blue Great Dane in AKC history (and he still holds that record to this day!) We are very grateful and extremely proud to be able to continue his incredible bloodline. Ramses is a gorgeous solid blue boy with excellent, correct, conformation; an incredible long neck and a very blocky head! Baila is a solid blue sweetheart with an IQ off the charts! Please call or email today for pictures and more information. 

 

 The videos below are of one of Clark's past puppies out of Willow. His name is Leo and he is proudly owned and loved by Jamey Sims and family. Leo is shown playing with his little miniature pig baby named Babe. Thank you Jamey for letting us share these videos of your sweet big boy Leo!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Here are a couple of videos featuring Zoe from our past litter. We take great pride in our puppies and feel that lots of attention for the first two months will show throughout the lifetime of your dane! This is the most formative time of their lives and lots of eye contact and interaction builds trust and confidence in the puppies as they learn to bond with humans!

Heartwrenching news!

I must warn anyone who is looking for a harlequin, merle or mantle dane to not trust Sabra's Danes currently owned by Patti Carter Messina:  A few years ago, Sabra Godfrey owned Sabra's Danes and purchased two of Oby's sons from me on contract! Sabra broke the written contract and sold my precious Oby babies to Patti Carter Messina and let Patti take over her website. I have not heard from Sabra since.  Now it has come to my attention that Patti is being charged with animal cruelty and neglect in the case of 19 great danes. UNFORGIVABLE!!! Some were turned over to Animal Control and some were actually dumped over the state line! Since Patti has been breeding, she has bred them constantly and the danes rescued were starving and in very unsanitary conditions. I wanted to make sure that I let anyone interested know that I am NOT affiliated with Sabra's Danes and they have gotten my bloodlines thru criminal means.  I pray the poor danes will first of all survive, and secondly recover, and find loving homes! This is why all breeders should sell only on a spay/neuter contract or else to show homes with an unbreakable contract. I should have insisted on co - owning with Sabra and she couldn't have sold my dogs and this terrible incident would never have happened! I am just sick over it! Oby is a perfect example of the intelligence, and loyal sensitivities that danes inately possess and I cannot imagine what those poor, intelligent creatures have endured at the cruel hands of these dishonest breeders!!!! ANYONE who knows where my stolen boys Tuvock and Tino are located, please let me know. They were on contract for Sabra to return them to me and not resell them under the table to Patti Messina. I will actively be trying to locate them and help in any way I can to make sure justice is served!

UPDATE: BOTH OF MY BOYS WERE LOCATED AND UNFORTUNATELY, OBY'S FIRSTBORN HARLEQUIN SON NAMED TUVOCK PASSED AWAY AT THE HANDS OF THE MESSINA'S BEFORE HE COULD BE RESCUED AND THE SECOND SON OF OBY NAMED MAXIMUS AKA TINO WAS RESCUED AND IS STILL LIVING AT THE RESCUE FACILITY WHERE I WAS TOLD BY THE RESCUE THAT THEY WILL NOT BE RETURNING HIM TO ME OR ADOPTING HIM OUT AS THEY INTEND TO KEEP HIM. I UNDERSTAND THAT HE IS AN AMAZING DOG AND ONE THAT WOULD BE EASY TO FALL IN LOVE WITH. I JUST HOPE AND PRAY THEY WILL GIVE HIM THE LOVE HE NEEDS AND THE ATTENTION HE DESERVES AND IF THEY FIND THAT THEY CAN'T, I WISH HE CAN BE PLACED WITH HIS OWN LOVING FAMILY WHICH IS WHAT I FEEL HE DESERVES!! I TRIED TO GET HIM BACK, BUT SINCE HE HAD CHANGED HANDS FROM THE PERSON I ORIGINALLY SOLD HIM TO NAMED SABRA, IT WAS NOT POSSIBLE. TOO BAD SABRA COULDN'T HAVE HONORED HER CONTRACT TO ME TO NOT PASS MY DANES ON TO ANOTHER PERSON AS BREEDERS!!! PATTY MESSINA AND HER HUSBAND SHOULD NEVER EVER HAVE GOTTEN THEIR HANDS ANY OF MY DANES!!!!

I WOULD LIKE TO EXPRESS MY THANKS TO ALL WHO HAD A PART IN ENDING THE TORTURE THE MESSINAS WERE INFLICTING ON DOZENS OF DANES AT THEIR HOME/KENNEL! I WANT TO SAY AGAIN THAT FULL REGISTRATION IS TO BE GIVEN VERY RARELY AND WITH MUCH THOUGHT ABOUT WHAT YOU ARE DOING FOR THESE BABY DANES OR ANY OTHER BREED OF PUPPY FOR THAT MATTER! BREEDING IS NOT EASY AND IT IS NOT FOR EVERYONE WHO OFFERS MORE MONEY! SO MANY BREEDERS NEVER EVEN THINK ABOUT OFFERING LIMITED REGISTRATION TO THEIR PUPPY BUYERS! I HOPE THIS STORY WILL MAKE A DIFFERENCE!

 

 

ON A MORE PLEASANT NOTE: 

SPECIAL THANKS TO MY SON, CALEB, WHO IS WORKING AROUND HIS VERY BUSY SENIOR YEAR IN HIGH SCHOOL TO BUILD MY WEBSITE!! THANKS FOR THE HARD WORK AND LATE HOURS!
