I believe in placing our Great Dane puppies in homes most suited for the energy levels and drives of the dogs . The puppy application will allow you to fill in your preferred color(s) and gender, and from there I will work with you in a very transparent manner to help place the puppy most suited for your needs and your household. Ideally, sport prospects will be placed in sport or more active homes. If a cozy home lifstyle is more your speed, I will aim to place my more laid-back puppies with you. To determine personalities, a temperament test may be performed, like the Volhard Puppy Aptitude Test, or we will be evaluating the puppies as they grow for proper placements.

I do take gender into account as males and females tend to have different personalities. Puppies are so much more than just their looks, they have indivual personalities and tempermants. This litter will have a mix of temperaments and drives. We utilize Volhard testing to help guarantee that you have the right puppy for your lifestyle. If you are 100% set on a certain puppy, reach out to us so we can talk more about that. This may look like needing to take your puppy on more walks than you wanted, or maybe this puppy is more independant and not as cuddly as you are wanting. By choosing us as your breeder, you are already entrusting us to provide you with your companion for the entirity of the dog's life. We hope that you will also trust us enough to match you with a dog that will fit best into your lifestyle.
Price:
How much are the puppies? $3,500- all pups are the same price regardless of color or gender as they’re all just as special and valuable ❤️
a $500 deposit will hold your place on the waitlist, and that will go towards the total cost.
Yes, that definitely is not a small chunk of change, but, on top of puppies raised within my home in Fort Worth, you are getting:
- predictable temperaments of puppies due to Volhard testing and titled parents
- more predictable health due to parent’s health testing
-2 year genetic health guarantee
-puppies with a head start on socialization and potty training
-a going-home bag with a collar, blanket with moms scent, and other goodies!
-lifetime breeder support. I have a wealth of knowledge both on the breed and in general about dogs and am always here for health questions or training questions.
- Vet check before going home
All puppies will go home with a document of good health from the verterinarian They will have a 2 year genetic health guarantee that is a part of the puppy contract, microchips, a welcome-home bag, and a new puppy informational packet with everythiing I recommend to you as a puppy buyer. I hope to prepare my buyers with all the necessary information so that you do not feel that you have to go to random people on Facebook for help.
Socialization and Potty Training:
The puppies will be raised in an active home and with Puppy Culture so they should be set up for continued socialization. If you are not familiar with Puppy Culture, here is a link:https://shoppuppyculture.com/pages/what-is-puppy-culture#MainContent
Puppies will also have a head start on potty training as I start this process when they are around 4 weeks old.
Please refer to the "Holistic Puppy Raising" section for more information on how we holistically raise our puppies and all that it entails!
Ear Cropping:
Puppy ear cropping is available if requested. Puppies will be cropped at 6 weeks old and remain with me until bandages are off and stitches are healed (they should be good to go home at 8 weeks still). The cost for ear cropping is $500
What is Ear Cropping: Ear cropping is a procedure done under anesthesia by a licensed Veterinarian specifically trained in this art. The puppies are asleep the whole time and then are given pain medicines afterwards. In most cases, puppies are playing again as soon as they are home from surgery.
I do support ear cropping, however it is a commitment and not always easy. Tape needs to be changed every 3-7 days and it can take months for your dog's ears to stand. Kailua's stood at 7 months, she was cropped at 10 weeks old. Please reach out if you have any questions about the cropping process.
All of our Great Dane puppies come with a head start!
