A $300
nonrefundable
deposit must be included with all applications. Deposit goes
toward purchase
price. It is our policy NOT to return your
deposit
if you change your mind and no longer want a dane from us.
We WILL return your deposit if your application
is not approved. All of our
puppies come with a limited registration or are co-owned by G-Dieter
Danes
unless previous arrangements have been made. You
can read about limited registrations by going to http://www.akc.org/reg/limitedreg.cfm. If you get a dane from us, you must sign a
"basic
contract" if the puppy is to be a companion (not a show/breeding dog). The basic contract helps protect the dane and
our reputation. You must sign a "basic
contract" AND/OR a "show/breeding contract" if the dane is to be
co-owned
and is for show/breeding. Show/breeding
contracts may vary depending on your expectations, our agreement and
the gender
of the dane.
Normally, people looking for show prospects get first pick after we make our pick. Then people looking for companion danes get their pick in the order in which their deposits are received. This will be done to the best of our ability, but it sometimes becomes difficult if some people want uncropped ears and it comes time for the rest of the pups to be cropped. We then have to make a decision as to which pup(s) will not get their ears cropped. All
cropped
ears must be taped/posted until the ears stand erect independently and
permanently. This takes time (can be up to
a year) and energy
and you must be committed to doing this. If
you are not committed, do not have your puppy’s ears
cropped. It is
required that all of our puppies complete at least a beginners
obedience class. Puppies
can
run $1000-$2000. All our
danes
must remain house dogs for their entire life. They
will NEVER be tied outside. All of our
danes must be returned to us if you can no longer keep them any time
for the
rest of their lives. We will NOT refund
your purchase price in this case. All danes
(for
their entire life) must be fed holistic preservative/hormone free food. Pups must be fed Eagle Pack Giant Breed Puppy
food or a equally quality holistic food with protein 23% or lower
for their first year of life. Vitamin
C must be given for the first year of life. Glucosamine
and Chrondroitin are highly
recommended. NO other Vitamin/Mineral
supplements can be given unless a blood test shows they are deficient.
If you have further questions, please do not hesitate to contact us. Also, see

page for more info on Great Danes. Thank you.
