Puppies - Litterbox

We were planning a Spring 2010 harlequin litter but sometimes even the best plans take their own turn...

This litter was an unplanned breeding between two of our show dogs who have excellent pedigrees, temperament and overall qualities. These pups will have solid temperaments, toplines, neck sets, croups & gorgeous head pieces that people around the world have come to expect with the Dagmar name. They will have everything else our show dogs have except they are not marked for showing in conformation (merles & mismarked blacks). These babies will make excellent family members, obedience partners or even an agility or rally dog for someone seeking fast paced competition.

We are seeking wonderful INDOOR SPAY/NEUTER homes for the babies. The babies will receive the same love, time, attention & care that goes into any of our champion show dogs as it is their birth right. Indoor only homes need apply. We will offer the same health guarantee and 24/7 breeder support for this litter as we do for any of our planned breedings of fawn/brindle or harlequin. As for the two harls, they will stay at Dagmar unless excellent show homes with cross-color bred knowledge seek to show them to a championship - should we deem them show prospects.

This litter certainly has GENETIC DIVERSITY.

7 blacks (with white markings) - 4 males & 3 females

7 merles - 1 male & 5 females

2 harlequins - 1 male & 1 female

The pup's pedigree is listed at bottom of this page.

All pets will be sold on LIMITED registration with

MANDATORY SPAY/NEUTER contracts.

Misc baby pix; week two. Once they are on their feet we will

color band them and put up individual shots.

Interested parties may email us for Questionnaire & Purchase Terms.

After reviewing your questionnaire answers and we approve you; we will accept a deposit. Deposits hold your place in line not a specific puppy. Deposits are non-refundable when purchase is cancelled by prospective buyer; Deposits are refundable only if purchase is cancelled by breeder should the puppy not be available to leave our home due to health or injury or other circumstances.

All pets will be sold on LIMITED registration with MANDATORY SPAY/NEUTER contracts.

If you are not planning on spaying/neutering we will not sell you a dog.

Hello Prospective Home -

With a 4 year dry spell of no litters and just wrapping up placing our planned fawn/brindle litter we are indeed surprised by what the puppy gods have sent us in the way of our Dot & Roman puppies. Thank you so much for your consideration of our beloved great danes. We are very pleased to be the breeders of what are considered to be Great Danes that stand for quality in the breed and conform to the standard with regard to type, structure, temperament and overall soundness for health of body & mind. It is a passion no doubt that goes beyond the ordinary. Over the years we've been blessed with the lifelong extended family we've made through our danes with their new families. We love sharing the smallest of milestones and we are there for the joy and heartache that comes with owning & loving a living creature. With that said, you are considering adding a living creature to your home environment. As a concerned future pet parent and smart consumer we expect to be asked tough questions and we ask tough questions. Because life is a natural cycle of growing and aging we offer what we believe to be a strong written guarantee and propose to warrant as much as we believe is fair for a dane's growth and overall life expectancy. As each home is different in it's approach to feeding, rearing and training in general dogs will vary in their home lives. We strive for long lived and happy dogs naturally but advise that we are only the beginning, it is paramount that the new home seek to continue and cultivate a life of love, happiness and healthy living for their new dog.

With the advent of the Internet we meet literally hundreds of people and would never or could ever produce the number of puppies that are asked of us. Our average litter size is 5-7 and so with that said, we of course want to be as sure as possible that the homes selected to be companion & show homes for our babies are only the best and loving homes with the strongest commitment to raising a great dane that is family oriented. As much as we like to show our dogs off in the ring and we are committed to the quality that belongs in the ring, we have a strong belief that a forever companion home will take precedence over someone who wants to dabble into showing a dog with no real commitment. Showing dogs is NOT for the faint of heart, it takes a lot of will & drive to succeed and be part of a team as well as a thick skin for the criticism that comes from your competition and some judges. The hours of training are endless and the possibility of defeat is high with a novice who will not consider a professional handler to help guide them.

Companions are placed strictly on a spay / neuter agreement with a LIMITED registration. Show prospects sold / placed on open registration to a novice home will be on a co-ownership basis only at the full show price.

The actual puppy selection process will be based on what I feel will benefit Dagmar in the show ring which often times is minor details from puppy to puppy in what my breeder's eye is trying to fine tune in our overall breeding program. The answering of our QUESTIONNAIRE is not a commitment to buy nor a promise to sell you a puppy. But I have a busy schedule with my photography, dog training as well as equine training schedule so I only continue dialogue with homes that have offered to answer the full questionnaire thus demonstrating they are serious in their search for a Great Dane. The Purchase Agreement/Contract and prices will only be shared with you once you are an approved home and we have actually whelped the litter, any other prices quoted are estimates.

Are you still here? Thanks for taking the time to read this far.

Here is what it takes to become a full fledged Dagmar home:

1.) You feel comfortable that we are indeed the type of breeders you desire to work with for hopefully the next decade & beyond.

2.) You feel we have the type of puppy you so desire (i.e. fawn / brindle / harlequin / dog / bitch).

3.) We feel you are the type of forever home we can build a life long relationship with mutual desire for only the best for our dane baby.

Only until all of the criteria above is met are we comfortable in accepting a deposit. The deposit is non-refundable and is applied to the agreed asking price of the puppy. Deposits are only accepted when we have puppies (deposits are not accepted until that time). However, the deposit is refundable if for any reason the puppy can not leave our home due to our care or circumstance. Any balance is due before the puppy leaves our home for his or her new forever home. UPON ACCEPTANCE of your deposit we will e-mail you the appropriate contract (companion or show) for your review & return signature(s). The contract will outline our expectations of the new home and the health warranty of your new puppy-to-be. The contract is due back to us prior to the puppy's expected departure date.

PUPPYMILLS & BACKYARD BREEDERS BEWARE: The contract contains a damage statement. It states a $5000 damage claim against each named individual who buys a companion on a spay / neuter agreement and intentionally or accidentally breeds, or resells in tact the said dog or bitch for purpose of selling or otherwise placing puppies. Dagmar is taking a stand here and now against individuals who try to intentionally mislead us in their purchase of a Great Dane. We also conduct criminal and general background checks of individuals we get that "gut" feeling about. If you have any type of criminal record regarding cruelty to animals or children or dealing drugs please do not bother wasting our time.

For more information about reserving a spot on our

future puppy waiting list, contact us via e-mail at

DAGMARDANES@THE-I.NET and ask for our Questionnaire

If you are looking for a dane puppy, the type of home that we EXPECT you to be will be the type of person that wants to love this breed and our dog/puppy from puppyhood to old age.

Basically from...THIS

... to THIS

and every stage in between.

DAGMAR USES HOME AGAIN MICROCHIPS WITH ALL OUR DOGS AND PUPPIES.
