&&&&& Mozart's Testimonials' &&&&
Roger, I met your sister at Cross Creek Animal Hospital in Waynesville at a
Halloween party last Saturday and when she saw Mozart
she thought he is quite big. It was funny, because she didn't know Mozart
was one of yours. When she told me about her brother 'You', who raises Great
Danes in Springfield, I told her guess what, Mozart
is one of Roger's puppies. Isn't that a small world, now I got to meet your
sister and her Airdales. Mozart
sure is a big hit with everyone. He is scheduled for Friday for a teeth
cleaning. Well, bye for now. Jasmin. JenXXXX

Hello Roger, how is everyone? I'm pretty much on my own, still living in the
same house with Mozart, who has not
slowed down. My son is still living with me, I guess it makes sense when you are
student and money is tight.
If it wouldn't be for Mozart, I would be
very lonely, but how much better can it get when you share a home with a
constant companion who adores me and it might sound crazy, but I do judge people
by the way they treat animals.
I have noticed that Tiger is for sale. Are you
going to retire him? I think he is a bit older than Mozart
and I always had a soft spot for Tiger. You came
for a visit with Tiger once I think he was about
two. He made such an impression on me.
Maybe sometime I could come for a visit and maybe bring Mozart
as a passenger or maybe I could give you a call sometime?
Hope this finds you well and keep in touch. Take care, Take care, Jasmin and Mozart.

Hello Roger and family, just visited your website what I do once in a while.
Tiger as handsome as always!
Mozart will turn 5 next month. Where did
the time go? Went with him to Run for the Paws from the PCHS in Waynesville.
There are actually pictures from 2009 Run from us on the PCHS website. You know,
if I would get paid for Mozart
popularity, I actually could make some money. I'm thankful to share my life with
such a wonderful dog. People refer to me as the woman who walks the Great Dane.
Just wanted to say Hi! Maybe some day I will come and visit you. Hope this finds
you all well. Take care, Jasmin and Mozart.

St. Patrick's Parade in Rolla
Hallo Roger, Mozart and I walked with the "canine-connections" in the 100th St.
Patrick parade in Rolla this morning. It was wonderful. Roger, you would not
believe how wonderful Mozart did. He was the talk of the town. I'm looking
into, if I can't get him service-dog qualified. Did you know, there is a

upcoming meeting in April. Just an update what is going on at this end.

Mozart makes our family almost complete
After Margaret, our 10 year old fawn passed in 2005, we got Mozart in 2006 as a 4 month old fawn male from Roger White in Springfield, Mo. We took him to puppy class. He did exceptionally well. He is 8 months old right now and bigger than some of the 10 month old harlequins we've met.
Mozart is the center of attention wherever we go and he gets along with all kinds of species, human and animal alike. Inside the home he is the perfect alarm system. He is such a good soul, couldn't have asked for a better Dane. I'm looking forward to adding another one of Roger's Danes to our Family, hopefully sooner than later.

Jasmine returned just after New Year's Day in 2007 & got a Brindle female to go with
Mozart! Emily is one of the pups that did get returned to me in this case their was family issues that were too much for Jasmine to tolerate with a 2nd pup. Emily was sold to a single Lady in Memphis that claimed she was the star of attention on the nearby kid's playground.
Emily was full of energy and I am sure will keep that that lady's hands busy! *(See

Ellie loves the snow. I can't get her

she LOVES everybody. Unfortunately I can't have another right now because
our Sheltie, Riley is too old to endure another puppy in the house.

Hi Roger, Well much to my relief,
Ellie is fine. The Vet said it is not medical
but that she was more of a glutton.
Ellie does drink her water too fast and too
much at one time.
Ellie is getting air in when she is drinking and then after
drinking she burps out the air along with the water she just drank. I need
to limit her water intake and give
Ellie a little amount to drink at a time and wait
about 5 minutes and give her a little more and so on. This has stopped the
barfing of water. Also, I have raised her water dish up about 1 foot. So far, so
good! I have enclosed the latest pic of Ellie. She has such a hard life! Thanks

Hi Roger, Still haven't had a chance to download pics. Spending a lot of time
with Ellie. She has a clean bill of health. Vet said she is gorgeous! She can
use the puppy Advantax and she has an appointment on the 28th for her first
distemper shot. We have been socializing her with everyone, including dogs and
cats. She has such a sweet, sweet personality. We love her so much. I just took
her for a little walk and now she's sound asleep. Oh,
Ellie is also 100% house
broken. She follows Riley out the door to the pooping grounds across the
driveway and she sleeps right next to Riley at night. We only use the crate when
we have to go out and she's only in there for the most 2-3 hours when were gone.
Ellie wakes my husband up in the night to go potty and she goes to the kitchen
door and waits for him to go out. I will get some pics to you soon.
She truly has brought joy into our lives. Thank You again and again Roger.

A
Happy update 5/16/12 It's been about 2 and a
half years since
Happy became part of my life. He has brought
me so much joy and love. He has been my pillow to cry on when times were tough,
my companion when I was feeling lonely, and above all else, my best friend. From
the first day that Happy came to live with us, I knew he was special. He always
had this look on his face like he knew exactly what was going on. As he got
older, I realized just how special he was.
Happy had this personality that could warm
even the coldest of spirits. One day, while sitting with him at home, watching
him nap on the couch with our tiny kitten, I realized I was being selfish.
Through mutual friends, I made contact with a woman named Jinna. She worked as a
therapist for trauma victims in the Denver area. I knew from word-of-mouth that
she had been looking for a new dog to accompany her in therapy sessions and
greet people at the door of her office. After just a few short hours,
Happy had a job. For months,
Happy worked to improve the lives of so many
people. Burn victims who had trouble moving found themselves petting Happy.
Traumatized victims of violent crimes who would never talk in therapy told him
all of their fears and desires.
Happy was a miracle worker. With his help,
many people found themselves "happy" for the first time in a long time. However,
this wasn't enough. We decided that
Happy could do even more. During the last
few months of 2011,
Happy attended Therapy Dog Training. He
graduated at the top of his class. He then began going to hospitals, including
Children's Hospital, to bring joy to many people in treatment. If only the world
could know how special animals can really be... With that thought in mind, Jinna
banned together with a few friends and started Project:Thrive. This project
became a huge success with a main goal of showing people the amazing beauty of
animals. Jinna,
Happy, and a few other people go to schools
all over Colorado. They teach kids how to safely approach dogs, how to care for
them, respect them, and love them.
Happy is almost famous. Schools, hospitals,
and patients call from all over the state to request a meeting with
Happy. He is the definition of a gentle
giant and I couldn't be more proud. I hope this letter shows just how amazing
your dogs are, Roger. I hope you feel a sense of pride in reading this. I know I
feel that way every time I think of all that
Happy has done. At 160 lbs and 40 inches at
the shoulder, this literal giant is the most gentle and loyal creature I have
ever met. Thank you so much for giving me this joy.
Happy has forever changed the lives of so
many people. Rochelle Rochelle HoXXXX

Re: puppies?
Well if we are going to get another Dane puppy, it's going to be from you. My
husband and I both decided that if the time came we would never use another
breeder. We've tried to do the "right thing" and adopt from a rescue. It has
failed twice. The dog was either cranky with Carson (our son) or fighting with
Happy. So we're thinking another puppy might
be the best way to go. My husband likes Blues, I don't really know much about
them. I actually like the Fawns myself. Here's a nice shot of
Happy trying to kill bubbles. I love it.
There's also one of him and a big stick he found. It was actually a walking
stick that he stole from someone at a dog park. Rochelle From: Rochelle HoXXXX

Happy " Update?
Hey Roger, Hope all is well with you and your family.
Happy is doing just wonderful. He is the
perfect family dog and just a total love bug. We just took him in for a check up
and he weighed in at 104 pounds and stands 34 inches at the shoulder. Now that
is a GREAT Dane! He has been nothing but healthy since the day we got him. His
vet always says "he looks amazing, perfect health" every time we bring him in.
Thank you again for providing us with such a delightful addition to our family!

Happy, Our first testimonial:
Dear Roger, We can't even begin to express the level of joy and love that
Happy has brought to our family. It didn't take long at all for us to
realize how truly amazing and special this pup really is.
Happy has such
a big heart and clever mind. He already knows a few commands and remains extra
aware all the time of our little toddler running around. Within three days
Happy was fully house trained. He was even going to the front door and
whining to let us know he needed to go out. He didn't spend long at all in the
crate and already gets free roam whenever we have to run errands. Just last
weekend we went on a trip to visit my family in St Louis and everyone had
something great to say about
Happy. They just couldn't believe that a 3
month old puppy could be so well behaved and mild-mannered (not to mention
completely gorgeous). Not to say he didn't show the other dogs who was boss, he
just left it at that and mingled with the crowed.
Happy really thinks
he's a person more than a dog, and chose to sit and watch the grill rather than
play with his cousins (though it could've had something to do with the smell of
food). We took
Happy in for his vet check last week and the vet told us
that he was as healthy as can be. So far so good. We'll keep you updated as
Happy gets older (and grows into those huge paws of his). Here's a few
pictures for now.

Hi Roger: No actually our hands are not full with Bash
at all, which totally surprised me being a puppy and all. He is very well
behaved and has a whole pile of toys that he knows are his and other than the
occasional grabbing of a toilet paper roll out of the garbage or bringing me my
flip flops he is very good about not getting into things. He definitely does
love attention but we are more than willing to give it to him . He is now just a
few days shy of 3 months old and weighs 30.6 lbs. He gained 8lbs in the two
weeks since his last vet visit. Everybody is just in love with Bash
and can’t believe how mellow and well behaved he is. Definitely give you credit
for some of that as we know you gave him a great start in those first 8 weeks!

All in all the boys are sharing Bash Haha,
but they do try to outdo each other to get Bash’s attention. Michael HAS to be
the one that gets to open the door for Bash
to go outside pee or else there is a major meltdown. It’s wonderful to hear
their laughter and joy when they play with Bash. It is so funny to sit and watch
because Bash will just lay on them then just stay there with them pinned down.
It’s hilarious! Once Bash is done playing
then he always comes to me for “Mama love and snuggles” Haha. I LOVE IT!
Yes Steve said the other crate and dog was right beside
Bash when he got there to pick him up. He
didn’t get a good look at that dog but said he definitely noticed how cheesy
their crate was. Said it was not a real nice sturdy one like the one you sent

Hi Roger, First off let me start by saying that we absolutely LOVE
Bash!! He is wonderful. Last night we made
him a bed in our bedroom with a big comforter and a pillow. I laid him on it
when we went to bed and he whined and got off and wandered the room twice and
after that he plopped down and was out till 5 am this morning. Brought him
outside to pee and he went right away. He’s doing really good about going
outside, no accidents in house yet. He is definitely a “lover”, he loves to
snuggle and be held and I’m loving every minute of it. He has been playing
with the boys and they just think he is the coolest thing ever! He likes to
follow me everywhere I go and does not like to be left alone in a room. I
brought him for a little walk tonight after supper and he loved it. He didn’t
fight the leash at all and is just doing great with everything. He fits right
into our family and is comfortable, loving and playful with everyone. (Him and
the cat aren’t too sure about each other yet) Haha. I’ve included some
pictures of him with the boys. Very impressed with how gentle he is with them
for still being a puppy. Thank you again! We couldn’t be happier and he is very
loved! We will be in touch with you again in the future for our next Dane! Leah

Hi There :) Soooo, I wanted to send you some updated pics on my baby boy
HOLT :) I went through the last year
of pics and I have hundreds so it was really hard to just find a handful, lol.
His 3rd birthday was this past November on the 2nd. We woke up (he sleeps in our
bed, in between us, under the covers haha) and since we both had to work I made
HOLT a nice big egg and toast breakfast with
puppy treats on the side before leaving. Later that night
HOLT got to go to the local ice cream shack
and have a doggy sundae. Anyways, here are a few (like 20...I told you it was
hard to pick;) newer pics. Thank you so much for such an A.M.A.Z.I.N.G. fur
baby. I cant wait to get him a precious little female black Dane soon :) YOU'RE

Re: Dog food vs Puppy food - how to switch...
Hey Roger! Thanks so much for your help. I wrote your vet and thanked her also.
As for Holt...he just ate a few cups of doggy food with nothing on it.
I'm almost positive it was just my evil doings of mixing his food with my food
(spaghetti sauce, potatoes, unseasoned meats, green peppers, eggs, etc.) and he
just started expecting that rather than JUST dog food. Its been about a week of
him only eating maybe a cup per day until now so hopefully I can get him back on
the right track. I did read that it was good to give the doggy some vegetables,
meat, and potatoes....maybe I went about it the wrong way??? I'm not
sure...maybe I cant do it EVERYDAY??? He's just so stinkin' cute and I want him
to be a happy boy. Anyways, thank you again. Its so nice having Holt for as long
as we have and still having a breeder that cares enough to help you out and keep
his original baby (mine now...hehehe) in good health. You rock! HOLLY ZIEXXXX

HE HAD HIS FIRST VET VISIT ABOUT 2 WEEKS AGO AND ALSO GOT HIS EARS CROPPED (I

HERNIA AND TO GET HIM NEUTERED.
I CANNOT STRESS HOW MUCH OF A JOY HE IS IN MY LIFE...HE'S MY LITTLE BABY =D

Subject: Received our 2 puppies
Dear Mr. White, We are Chuck & Mary XXXX in Oak Hill, WV. Our nephew, Daniel
Anthony Rasi purchased two of your Great Dane puppies, (Brandy &
Whiskey), as a
surprise for us. They arrived last night, Fri. November 18 @ about 7:30PM. NOT
ONLY ARE THEY FABULOUS DOGS, but arrived in excellent condition. They were
fatigued from their long flight and were allowed to rest until fully recovered
(which was around 3:00AM ) before a lot of interaction. Today
Brandy &
Whiskey seem fully
recovered and are playful, interacting with my wife and I, and getting into
typical puppy mischief. Over the past 21 years, we have had a Basset Hound, 2
chocolate Labs and 2 Gray Wolves. All of our animals were well cared for and all
lived to a minimum of 10 years of age....with the Labs living 11 and 12 years.
Even our wolves, whose life expectancy is 5-7 years, lived until 11 years. I am
extremely impressed with your methods and care of the dogs you sell. You are a
Class Breeder! We will be in contact as time passes and give you updates on
their progress. Needless to say you will get our highest recommendation as a
Breeder. Sincerely, Chuck & Mary XXXX Oak Hill, WV From:

Feel free to use me as a reference. I would be happy to talk to your potential
customers. I just got back from a hike with
Tank. Off leash. He is so dead on responsive.
Tank will not leave my side. I can honestly say I have NEVER had a dog
like this with such a good, obedient temperament. I could cry with how well
Tank is taking to my training. This is a dog of a lifetime. At 7 months,
I am deeply in love. Thanks. WELL worth the price! ~Giselle Date: Sun, 13 Nov

Tank is training well on leash and has learned to stay by me, and Tom,

Tank EVERYWHERE. Attached are two pics with

Puppy check...?
Well...his name is Tank. He is the
nicest, sweetest pup ever. Adores everyone. Joe has taken him as her pup.
They wrestle and sleep together. Joe sleeps by the crate at night. They are
inseparable. He is very feisty. Plays with the boys...5 and 7...like they are
puppies, too:) He is pretty darn near house trained. Will go days at a time
without a mistake. Seems if we do not crate him enough, he has an accident, so
it's really our fault. Incidentally I applied for a job at said Vet today
(fingers crossed), for a Vet Tech position. I'll attach some pics.
Will try to get more. He is a gorgeous dog. Makes me smile just to look at
him. His personality is so laid back yet very attentive. Just don't ever
remember falling in love so quickly. Hope this finds you well:) ~Tom and

More PHOTO updates on
Samson ... *(See

&&&&&&&
Hi Roger! Thought I'd send you an update on
Samson.
Samson has been steadily growing and
everyone comments on how huge he is, but since I've seen him everyday since he
was a 20 pound 8 week old puppy, he seems pretty average sized to me. He is very
well behaved for a puppy, but does get the occasional destructive boredom bug
when he is left unsupervised for too long, like the time when he broke out of
his metal wire crate while we were gone and tore off a part of the couch (as
you'll see in one of the pictures I've attached). But I will say that of all the
dogs I've owned in my life,
Samson is the most well behaved and mild
mannered dog, and any "damage" he has done doesn't even begin to compare to the
damage other dogs I've owned have done. He is such a pleasure to have around!
Someday we will definitely be coming back to you for our next Dane!
Stephanie
p.s. The pictures I've attached are of
Samson next to Hailey from 17 - 29 weeks.
Also, I weighed him yesterday (29 weeks) and he came in at 92 pounds! From:

Hi Roger: We made the drive back to St Louis and
Samson did great! Potty training has been effortless and he has not had
one accident yet! I took him into the vet a few days ago and she said he looks
great! He is very well behaved for a puppy, but does need some reminders
occasionally about the rules, just like any puppy.
Samson gets along great with my daughter,
they are like siblings, it's so cute to watch them together! I'll keep you
updated, thanks for such a great quality Dane!

Hi Roger, Here is a pic of Sarah Grace with Gus the beautiful. He's a giant, and
so so sweet! I couldn't have gotten a better dog. He's amazing & definitely the
son of Jumpy Lumpy. Sometimes I think I should have named him Tigger. He's the
bounciest Dane I've ever known, but he's so gentle & good natured. He loves the
kids! My friend Lesley ParXXX is looking at your newest babies -
Black Noser & Romeo's
litter. I told her that #1 male looks just like Gus
did at that age, uh & told her she was nuts if she didn't pay you asap for him
:) Her daughter is Sarah Grace's best friend - so it's going to be a blast
having Gus & the new baby playing
together. Thank you Roger for giving my big beautiful Gus
such a happy & loving 1st home - it made all the difference in the world when he
came home with us, as our 4th child haha. Caroline ThomXXXX, thomXXXXXX@yahoo.com Collierville, TN.

Hey Roger, We are approaching Gus' first Birthday. He's an absolute
maniac, and so much fun. My past Danes were not jumpers, but true to his
mother-Jumpy Lumpy, we have Jumpy Gussy. He's like Tigger-bouncing around
w/ his tongue hanging out and a big Great Dane smile on his face. One of his
favorite things to do is chase the water when I'm TRYING to water the flowers. I
have actually pointed the water up high in the air & made an arc w/ it, just to
watch Gus jump up SIX FEET into the air to catch a bite of water. He is the
funniest dog! I have to say, that the way you hand raised him has made all the
difference in this dog. My last Dane, I trained specifically to guard me, and he
was very protective and an excellent guard. I decided, since now I have 3 kids,
that Gus should just be a family dog - and is he ever! He loves our kids
& is excellent w/ them. Wherever we go, Gus goes. He loves all the
neighbors, runs around our cove just as goofy as can be, looking for his next
victim to lick! He likes the cats, he likes other dogs with the exception of
"Teddy" the little turd - I mean lapsa that lives behind us. All that dog does
is bark - non stop, so Gus rushes the fence & his deep bark sends Teddy
away from our fence. I tell him now, "Gus, go tell Teddy to be quiet" and
he does. Gus really is a gentle giant. He has no idea how big he is and
knocks the kids down sometimes - but the look on his face is so funny when he
knocks one of them down. It's like he's thinking "wonder why that kid is on the
ground "His companion is a beagle named Jack. Jack was pretty pissed at first,
but as Gus grew, Jack decided to be his buddy. DUH! Those two look just like the
cartoon dogs - where the little dog keeps running under the big dog &
Gus
is trying to look under himself to see Jack. FUNNY! Here's some good advice:
Don't leave home thinking that the 6 month old Dane is outside and forget to
close the doggy door. Gus ate the couch & two chairs in the 3 hours I was
gone. I came home & our den was knee deep in couch foam.
Gus had no idea
he'd done anything wrong & greeted me w/ a piece of the arm off the couch ready
to play tug-o-war. OH MY! I needed a new couch anyway & he just escalated the
inevitable. I found his bone down in the couch later - guess that's what started
the party! Other than that, he's never chewed up anything! HA!! Hey, when he
does something, he REALLY does it! He's a healthy, loving & sweet dog. So
willing to please, and just wants to be near me. I adore him, and when I'm ready
for another Dane, you can be sure I will come back to you! Caroline ThomXXXX, thomXXXXXX@yahoo.com

Hey Roger, Sorry I didn't return your phone call. I've been down w/ some kind of
fever/cold bug, but I've decided to join the land of the living today.
Gus was
an excellent "nurse" he slept by me on the couch & think he would have gone to
get me a drink if he was only tall enough to reach the handle on the refrige. So
eager to please! He is SUCH a good dog! He has already mastered the "off"
command & now we're working on "no".
Gus follows me around everywhere & loves to
sleep on my lap. It took me 2 days to crate train him, now,
Gus just goes into
his "house" (crate) whenever he wants some alone time. (away from the non stop
playing Beagle) He's a good little member of our family & has very good manners
in the house! He already goes to the door when he needs to potty, of course if
you don't notice it right away, he forgets why he went there & is off to find
something new to play with & leaving me a little present by the door.
Gus has
plenty of toys, so he hasn't chewed up anything - yet! He is the sweetest,
cuddliest, little kissy boy ever! He is excellent w/ the kids & loves playing
tug of war w/ them w/ his big rag bone.
Gus is growing like a weed. I expect by
next week he will have outgrown his baby collar you gave him. I think it's so
funny how people always say "Wow, look at his feet, he's going to be a big dog"
I have a plaster of paris mold of my last Dane's paw, Gussy's little baby foot
fits just inside Wil's paw pad! I just smile & think to myself.... YOU AIN'T
SEEN NOTHIN' YET!!! I can't thank you enough for the wonderful loving home you
gave Gus before we got him. It has made all the difference in the world!

Hi there, Roger! Just wanted to let you know my little buddy is doing great--had
a good visit to the vet the other day and growing like a weed. He really enjoys
that food you recommended, and it seems to be really good for him. Hope you are
doing well in the weather and are selling Great Danes too!

Thanks so much!? Hi Roger, This is Stephanie and Casey, we bought
Tyson, a brindle Great Dane from you in
March 2009 out of Kitty and Sunny's
litter. Sorry it has taken so long to get back in touch and let you know how
everything is going, but things are great. We have enclosed a few pictures of
our baby who is now a year old (and weighs 125lbs!), you may post them if you
like. Tyson is so full of life and such
an amazing addition for us, it is hard to remember life before him! He loves
living on the farm and going with us riding horses and four wheelers. This boy
is all puppy! He is so energetic and a very happy dog. He was by far the easiest
dog we have ever trained, such a smart animal!
Tyson could sit, lay, shake and speak by the time he was 3 months old!
Sorry this is such a long email and to be bragging on
Tyson so much, but he has been a huge
blessing for many different reasons. We just wanted to sincerely thank you for
all the happiness you have brought into our lives probably without even
realizing it. Thank You! Stephanie and Casey Hannibal, Missouri From: Casey

Update :-)? Hi Roger! I just wanted to give you an update on our baby,
Bowser. He is 9 months old now and 120+
pounds and still growing like a weed! He is arguably the best dog ever. House
breaking was a breeze and I count the number of accidents on two hands. He is SO
smart and training has been fun and rewarding (he is a little spoiled so it can
also be challenging at times ;-)). We will begin the intermediate class in March
and he is looking forward to playing with all the other dogs.
Bowser LOVES to go to the pet store and all
the attention he gets... children and adults all run up to him and pet him-- he
is like a magnet! He is very well behaved and social!! Our vet has nothing but
great things to say about him and with the exception of food allergies we
haven't had many medical issues. Bowser
is an absolute joy and the love of my life! (don't tell my husband LOL) I
regularly check your website to see the new puppies and I tell all my friends
about you. Keep bringing beautiful Danes into this world! Thanks so much and I
wish the best to you. (I've attached a few pics to show you how BEAUTIFUL my
baby Bowser is)

knows what he's doing"!!! SO my Vet absolutely LOVES
Jackson, he
said he's perfectly proportioned and looks like a really good Great Dane!!
Thanks SOOOO much Roger for giving me SUCH a great puppy!! He has settled in
perfectly and actually sleeps soundly throughout the night in his crate!! He's
growing rapidly AND since he's a puppy... Every time we turn around he has
something new in his mouth hahaha!! We have bought him some different chew toys
so were SLOWLY getting his used to the fact that he cant chew anything else but
his own toys!!!
Jackson is a beautiful dog and I cant WAIT to watch him

Hi Roger, Rex is great! I'm attaching a couple pictures of him but please
do not post anything that has my kids in them on the web. Here's an update on
Rex....he's weighing in around 150, has a wonderful temperament, is the
smartest dog I've ever been around, and is just a beautiful boy. Katie is his
best friend (that's our 4 year old) and she works on "training" him a couple
times a week and just sits and pets him for hours every day. Matthew takes him
on walks and he always walks very nicely for him. We've really not hit many
obstacles in training him (mouthing being the only hard issue to break him of,
but we're good now). He likes to hang out with me at night when the kids are
asleep while I read. Oh, and he's really well behaved when the kids have friends
over, not at all territorial. Let me know if you have anything else you're
wondering about. Ann HaXXXXX

Hi Roger - Thanks for the voice message - Sorry I missed your call.
Rex is growing like a weed, seems to be taking to both crate training and
housebreaking very nicely, and is loved by (and loves) the kids! We're starting
puppy classes next week, but Rex is already doing well on a leash and seems to
-- occasionally -- know what "sit" means. Not bad for 9 weeks or so.
We took him for his initial vet check to the vet in Webster Groves, and all
checked out nicely except for an umbilical hernia that will need surgery when he
gets neutered and intestines tacked. We have another vet visit next week (at a
Vet closer to our home in Chesterfield, so our drive won't be so bad) and a few
of the Vets in the practice own Danes. Their trainer has a herd of three Danes,
so we'll know where to go in case some specialized training is needed.
Regards and best wishes to you and your wife. Hope you enjoyed your time in St.
Louis.

Hello from Hendersonville, TN! How are you and your Danes doing Roger? We are
all fine here. Thor will be 18 months on June 3. He is the love of our
life! He is a great and beautiful dog. He gets commented on everywhere we go!!
He sleeps in bed with my youngest son and yes, sometimes still in the recliner
with Shawn! I was wondering about your opinion on when to switch him to the
adult food. He is still on the Eukanuba large breed puppy. I have a couple of
Great Dane books and they say to keep him on puppy food until he is 2. Do you
agree with that or should I switch now that he is 18 months old? Well, take care
Roger, and have a wonderful summer!

Hi Roger HAPPY BIRTHDAY, ROGER!!!!! Shawn & I just wanted to check in and tell
you how wonderful Thor is. He is about 4 months and 3 weeks now and about 60
lbs. He has been such a great pet and we couldn't love him anymore! He definitely
is spoiled and gets to do whatever he wants. We fenced in our back yard for him,
he's in obedience classes, loves riding in cars and going for walks. He is quite
the conversation piece at the dog park, too. He has been very healthy and our
vet just loves him. Yes, we had his ears cropped, (I know you don't like that)
but we just prefer the look. At least Shawn is not still sleeping in the
recliner with him. We have a big comfy bed for him that he sleeps beside us,
that is if he is not in bed with one of the boys! You seem like you're keeping
quite busy with all your puppies. Everywhere we go, someone asks us about
Thor
and comments on how beautiful he is. This Saturday we are taking him to our
yearly "Doggy Days in the Park". I'm sure he will make a lot of new friends. He
already has a girlfriend, a Yorkie, in his obedience class! I wanted to ask you
about his food. We have always fed him Eukanuba, large breed puppy, until a
couple of weeks ago when this new pet food store in town told us we should be
using Solid Gold - Wolf King. So we read about it and switched. Have you ever
heard of that? We just want to feed him the best food for him. Also, we have
heard that we should wait to have him neutered until 1 - 2 years old to give his
body a chance to grow bigger & stronger. So we are kind of confused on that
issue. Well Roger, you have a great day, and a great birthday, (yes we
remembered) and Shawn will too! I'm sending a pic of
Thor. We love him so much
and he gives us great joy! Talk to ya later. Bye from Tennessee!!

crate though. Just wanted to check in with you and tell you that Thor is doing
just fine. We all love him very much!

Hello Roger, Happy Thanksgiving to you - I hope this note finds you and your
family well!
Two years ago, I purchased my Samson from you for my son who was ill but
he was given a very positive prognosis. Unfortunately, the Lord took my boy home
anyway and I found myself left with a dog that he had always wanted. Samson,
is now a little over two years old and though I seem to be surviving the
devastation of my son's loss, I think it is mainly due to the new dimensions of
joy that Samson has brought me.
We belong to the San Diego Great Dane Meet-up and some of our meets include "dog
friendly" restaurants. So Samson has not only learned to socialize very
well with most dogs, he is learning to behave at restaurants and many other
outings as well! For Halloween, Samson and I wore owner and dog look-a-like
vampire costumes - we received "Honorable Mention". One of his many friends
include, Titan, recently recognized as the "tallest dog" in the world! Titan's
human mother Diana, is our Meet-up Coordinator.
Samson is absolutely and truly a "gentle giant" and is my own very
special lap dog. I love him and know my son would have adored him as well. Thank
you Roger for taking such good care of these beautiful animals.
Warmly, Nancy DaXXXX San Diego, CA

Hello, Roger! It's been quite a while since I've received my pup from you, and
boy has he grown! Kelso is from the
litter of Tiger and Daphne, and
although he was the last pup to be sold, I'm sure he is turning out to be one of
the largest in the litter! Kelso turned a
year old on November 11th, 2009, weighing in at 165, and has been one of the
best joys I have had since I picked him up at 3 months old in February of 2008,
when he weighed over 100 pounds less!! It is such a joy to come home to such a
great dog who couldn't be happier just to see me. I apologize for taking so long
to send in a testimonial, but better late than never, right?
I'll send pictures along as I take more, but in the meanwhile, I've attached a
few current shots. The first picture is of Kelso
on the day I got him... a few more pictures when we discovered his love of the
sprinkler, and of water in general, and then lastly, his new found love of
Christmas trees... (he will sit by the tree for hours just staring at it!)

don't put up with it - call me !!! 417-267-3498
To: Sales@GreatDanes4U.com Hi
my name is April
I have been searching for about a week now to find a Brindle Great Dane, it's my
dream dog I just love them and have always wanted one. But, one of three things
keep happening. either, North Dakota is not in there are for the shelter (that's
for all the big dog shelters I've been able to find. Two the breeders demand to
be able to go search your home before letting you buy a puppy. or three they
want $2,200 for it not including shipping or gas for travel and there not even
registered puppies! It just seams so WRONG!!! either you live to far away to
take the time you'd like to go have tea with the family so that they might
consider thinking about possibly MAYBE Allowing you to buy one of there several
hundred dollar puppies..... MAYBE, after you pay a lay away fee of course, OR
they have you fill out a three page essay of what's your house like what would
you do if, did you know about Great Danes, and on and on and on and on and on
and on..... I've filled out 5 of those thing now and each and every time I get
back the same darn thing North Dakota is To far away to go see if you house is
suitable!!! WHY!! It's so fricken wrong!!
I love dogs I have saved the past three dogs my family has owned off the streets
and I've even saved 4 cats off the streets in my past 15 years of life and Now
that I FINELY have my own house and only one tubby kitty for company, and I can
afford to have my dream dog.... why the heck do I just get the brush off?!?! I
don't get it!
The reason I'm writing you this is because you didn't have an essay... you
simply said write if you had any questions....so...... what do you need to know
about me to maybe possibly consider thinking about sort of considering
evaluating me so that you can also tell me ND, USA is to far away to even look
at thinking about maybe allowing me to but one of you Brindle (preferably a pure
color) Great Dane puppy? I'm really starting to think that you half to be part
of the Illuminati to get a puppy haha either that or parry of the Knights
Templar. haha thanks for letting me rant even if you just delete this e-mail it
just seams that all the "top-breeders" forget that at one point in time they
where out there looking to buy there first puppy to, and it's not like the old
days where you sent to the mall grabbed a puppy but down you $30 dollars and
left I know a puppy will set me back but I want one male/female Doesn't mater,
one that I can register and train (maybe enter in a dog show or two ^_^ wouldn't
that be something!!) perhaps even be able to bread even if it's just once when
my doggy is getting older and I want to bread it to another Brindle Great Dane
so that I can have my pick of the puppies and then find good homes for the
others that would be AMAZING just to do that one time, JUST ONCE! but.... that
brings me back to my same problem.... no one will sell me a puppy to begin with!
I have three guest rooms so that if some one wanted to come up here for the
weekend it would be just fine but they ALL say no it's to far.
Why the heck can there not be a Great Dane breeder up her in North Dakota!
*Sigh!* it's just so disheartening... I'm tempted to just buy one of those
internet puppies that they sale to early and then just through into a box and
send to you. but I don't want to buy from a place like that because it's
encouraging them..... and those pore puppies look so unhealthy and frail. ok ok
I'll shut up know and send this e-mail so you can either write me back and say
I'm crazy, obsess, and live to far away to consider for adoptions, or simply for
you to delete this mail either way it felt good to type my frustrations out so
thanks for that ^_^

How's it going Roger?
Been doing pretty well over here with Duke. He's been maturing very well, in
fact when we took him to the vet he said he was one of the highest quality Danes
he's ever seen. Duke is close around 70lbs and very healthy. This guy has been
in practice over 30 years, my wife's parents have been using him since before
she was born. He is a goof with a lot of personality and is always getting into
things. Thankfully its not the getting into things he shouldn't be and
destroying the house, just very adventurous and fearless. Semper Fi Rory

Hello! Thank you! I've been reading you website, it has a lot of information and
since I want to digest every bit of it, it might take me a while. The dog is
awesome, he loves to cuddle and be with me. I have an Australian shepherds, they
are great dogs, but a little bit more independent, this puppy sure likes the
contact, and to be with me all the time, I read sometime ago that even though
Great Danes are good with people, they are more a one owner type of dog, which I
love. He has walked Rochester city up and down and already knows where and when
to do its necessities, he's very smart, still kind of clumsy, but smart. We've
taken him to dog parks and its doing great. One day we had a lot of activities
and I didn't want it to live it alone, so I hired a dog sitter and she is in
love with him, she told me he loved to sleep with her cats also. Tomorrow we are
taking him to a vet for a general check up.
I read on the internet that American Great Danes tend to be more tall and sleek,
while Euro Great Danes tend to be more bulky, what type of Great Danes are his
parents? Do you know how tall is Sunny and
Daphne? more less? maybe that way I
can have an idea of how tall this one might be.
Thank you for breeding this puppy, it has come after a very difficult loss, one
month ago a guy accidentally shot my girlfriend while we where holding hands and
she died in my arms. This puppy has given me happiness again, have brought light
to my eyes and I really think he has a little bit of her in him. I owe you
a lot, so be sure this puppy is going to be taken excellent care of, and its
going to be raised in a very loving environment.

impressed at how well you took care of our little guy. He is absolutely perfect!
We are amazed at how well he behaves and he is already starting to follow
commands and is doing awesome with housebreaking. We were expecting the worst
based on how our Dalmatian was as a puppy but he has been great. We are amazed
at how much he has grown in 2 weeks, I'll send you pictures soon. Thank you

Greetings, My name is Tyler Leonard and I am thinking about visiting to check
out your dogs this weekend. I will call tomorrow (Wednesday) and discuss
specifics but wanted to give you my name and information now so you have an idea
who I am when I call.
Here is a little background: I currently live in Ventura County, CA. I grew up
with Labs and haven't had a dog in many years as I have been on active duty in
the Marine Corps as a helicopter pilot. I have been interested in Great Danes
for a few years now and decided a while back that would be the next dog for me
(based on the sage advice of a fellow helicopter pilot who grew up with them in
Virginia). I am done with the deploying part of my career so I am ready for a
dog. I am not looking for a show dog but rather a companion or companions. In
fact, my biggest question is are two better than one? Reason would have me
believe that two is good so they have each other. I am primarily interested in
Fawns and Brindles but would gladly take a purple one if it happens to be the
one I'm struck with. Simply put, I have color preferences but don't really care
that much.
I had originally planned on trying to get a dog from a rescue but am having a
hard time finding younger Great Danes and like the fact that your animals appear
to be well socialized. Please let me know what you think. I will call sometime
today and plan to look for plane tickets to come out this weekend if you're
available. If you would like to email information to me before I call please
send it to the address above as well as
tyler.leoXXXXX@navy.mil I look forward to talking.

Hello Roger when I spoke to you on new years, I told you I would keep you
updated on the puppy my husband and daughter came to get on then 22nd of
December. I cant say enough about how pleased I am with him. We named him
Maddox, and my god he has grown. In the last weeks. I have always had small
or medium dogs, is getting a big dog I was nervous about. But let me tell ya he
may be big butt he is still is a baby inside. The first 2 days we brought him
home I was sad cause he followed my daughter, and now I would pay $ 100;00 to
just go take a pee with no audience. He is drop dead hansom the most beautiful
eyes I have ever seen. He is perfect to me and I wouldn't change anything about
him, and ohh my goodness can that dog eat, and yes he is spoiled ,with lots of
treats to make his tummy happy. I've had him only a couple weeks, but I have
fallen in love love with that" mommy's little man" (my little name I game him) I
love him so much, and their is nothing I wouldn't do for him. To my husband dogs
r just pets, but to everybody else see
him as as a family and would pay anything to get him better if he was sick. Now
the only problem with him the potty training, and separation, He cries when I
leave and theirs lots of people here with him. so 90% of the time, he goes with
me. Leave your cell# and will send you a pic, and don't worry, he has a great
home here. Later, Sarah (Maddox) mommy

HI Roger.. How cool to have the police take the pups in the escort car!, I bet
that was a sight!..,yeh, my brother and mom came to visit tonight for a few
minutes. they were so worried about getting back to " the girls" after just a
few moments. the black lab is getting used to them now, it took awhile and
constant watching .they have not picked names yet. they have been busy with
them, and Jon said when he tries to eat each time, the blue one gets in his face
and steals his food! He said HE might be able to get some food at some
point! I checked Petco and Blue Buffalo was way to expensive 32.00 for a med
bag! I got the Eucanuba and they did not seem to be real interested in it. we
have 4 foods now for them to chose from. they have 2 collars each , 6 leashes,
and 5 toys to chew, 2 new blankets, and big beds from Costco!. Jon says the blue
one is attached to him more and will come and lick him if
Blackie bites
him too much!,,,both very different babies! I went to visit last night for a few
minutes and they were so loving, but Blackie was munching on a greenie
bone and they were fighting over it...they are too cute. both right in the
middle of my brother's bed making themselves totally at home!... I will
write again soon. I have not checked the mail yet today, and its late tonight,
so I will get out there tomorrow.....take care....! Susan

Good evening Roger! I just thought I would give some updated information on
Evey.
I was just at your page looking at dogs. Saw Eve's sister is still available as
well as a Solid Blue. Eve does need a companion and once again we are
contemplating on getting another dog or possibly a cat. Who knows!?!?!
Anyway Eve is doing very well, it turned out that the UTI was in fact not a UTI.
It was an infection in her vulva called vaginitis. She is on the last round of
antibiotics for that and it is looking in a upward direction. I have seen no
discharge from her vulva in the past week and a half. YAY!! I think she (knock
on wood) is getting a bit higher of an immune system finally.
So a little information not concerning medical matters... She was last weighed
in at 111 pounds about 2 weeks ago.. and growing. She snores as loud as a human
if she lays funny. It is hilarious. I taped it on my phone. She is now sleeping
in her HUGE kennel at night. We tried the sleeping on her bed in our room and
that was not happening. She would wake up constantly trying to get in bed with
us. So the final decision came to kenneling at night. The kennel is literally huge
though so she can still stretch out. The neighbors have a dog and it kept
getting into our yard.. digging under fence :( The good of that..
Eve was having
a blast playing with her.. the bad... there are holes everywhere in my backyard
that now have to be filled. I hope she grows out of the digging stage soon. She
has become quite the couch potato as well as a couch hog. She thinks she can
just take over the whole thing even when others are sitting on there. lol. Lets
see what else has the stinker been up to...Oh when she comes in from outside she
sits and lifts up her front paws for us so we can wipe the dirt off in the
attempt of keeping the carpet clean. However with the rain here all the time its
a full time job of vacuuming the floor. I think that is all I have to tell for
now. She is getting so big and we just love her to death. Couldn't be happier
with her!!!

Hey Roger! It's 4am so I figured I better not call. I am more interested in the
Brindle born in January than the black ones. I know someone that has a brindle
and she is gorgeous. Plus since she is a bit older it will be easier on us.
Since we have Eve that is solid colored I thought that a multi colored one would
be better. I have been talking to Lee and he doesn't mind if we get another one.
We just can't get it til we are about to leave for Lewis! Or possible mid
October.
Evey is turning out to be quite the wonderful dog. She still sleeps in the bed
with me, but that will stop as soon as we get the sit/stay learned, so i can
tell her to stay in her own bed. Oh did i mention before that she is 64 pounds
and none of that is fat. She still has a wonderful figure!! We love her to
death. I think Lee and I have decided we aren't going to have children just
pets. I don't think I could handle raising a child. My nerves are tested a lot
with Eve when she is being a lil.... shit if I may say so.

Hey Roger, Evey is doing awesome! She is being an ornery lil pup, but she is too
sweet. Sorry I haven't emailed sooner, things have been kinda crazy around here.
She is really awesome about going outside to potty, unless mommy and daddy
forget that its been a while since she was out. :( She is eating really well.
Only concern is that she gets hiccups ALOT! She is up to 47 pounds now, was 39
when we got her. Took her to the vet the day after we got her and Doc said
everything was great. I am feeding her PurinaOne Large Breed Adult Food now and
she is loving it. We are doing a lil crate training for when we are gone during
the day for a couple hours, so far so good with it. Only had one accident and
that was the first time we left her for an hour. She sleeps with me and Lee in
the bed and is a bed hog!!!! When we wake up, Lee and I are normally on the edge
of the bed and she has taken over the center all stretched out and we have a
queen size bed. She sleeps through the whole night, and has gotten into routine.
That is a great plus besides she is used to getting up around 5am when Lee gets
up to go to PT and well now he is gone for a couple months for some training and
I have to drag my butt out of bed at 5am! Ugh!! I am going to start some
obedience classes for some extra help with training since Lee is gone and 4-6
months is the good training age! She LOVES Frisbees, but not for throwing and
fetching....but for chewing! I paid $11 for a Nylabone for her to chew on and
she chose the $1 Frisbee instead. That figures. She has her own lil pink basket
that her toys go in and she goes and picks them out slowly one by one so mommy
(me) has to gone through the house and pick up all the toys again. Walking on a
leash is doing awesome as well. The day we picked her up it was difficult, but
she is doing awesome now. She is rather timid around new people and places, but
I have read that that is her age, and plus since you are in the country there
aren't so many different noises, people, and new things. So we are slowing
taking her out to public places to be around people, new noises, and areas. I
have done lots of reading and it says its normal for them to be timid but to
slowly take them out to socialize, but not to be forceful. Anyway that is a BIG
update on Evey. She is an official AKC puppy!! Thanks for the awesome pup
Roger!! She fits in so well being ornery!! Jessica Junction City, KS (soon to be

It is with greatest of joy and pride that I write to you. I know it has been
awhile, but a lot has happened. Sampson is and has been the greatest joy.
He is now 7 months old and weights 95 lbs. He just got his stitches removed from
the stomach tack and neutering. He is doing GREAT!! The vet had nothing but
praise for him. He now eats 8 cups of hard food and 2 cans of soft a day. He his
daddy's BIG eater!!! :-) I have given your pens and website to everyone who
asks!. Also, we entered the Dogs in disguise Halloween contest and won 1st!!! I
am enclosing some pictures from it of both him and my mini Dachsie who is the
boss!! She loves him so much and they are great companions for each other.

Subject: Sampson
Dear Roger and Family, I wanted to take this opportunity to update you on our
Sampson. We just returned from his final booster shots as a puppy!! YEA!! His is
doing GREAT!!! The Vet is extremely pleased with his progress as are we. We
could not have picked a better breeder, you guys are awesome!!! Sampson is
gaining 4 to 5 lbs per week and at 18 weeks he is 62.8 lbs! :-) My big BOY!!! He
sits, shakes and is leash trained. We go everywhere, including Home Depot, Lowes,
Petsmart and Petco. The vet originally said he would weight 130 to 150 grown.
After today, he is changing his mind, hahahaha. He now says Sampson will surpass
150 easily. I am getting some more pics and will send them as soon as possible.
Again thank you for our new addition and for all you do for this breed.

Roger, Sorry it has taken so long to write you. I wanted to write and give you
an update on Sampson. This Saturday will be 3 weeks since we picked him up and
we could not be happier with our puppy choice or the breeder choice!!!! His vet
visit went great and the vet was very pleased with his health and everything
about him. They gave him the shoots he needed and and then we started on
Frontline and Heartguard. We have only had 2 accidents in the house which is so
FANTASTIC!!! He is eating good and is a great new addition to our family. He is
already leash trained and fetches. We are working on sitting now!!! He is
definitely Daddy's boy!!!! Thank you sooooo much for all you do and have done
for this breed and my puppy!!! He is playing well with our miniature Dachshund,
she has taken charge of this with him!!! :-) Here some a photos of him. Also, I
am posting photos on my MySpace account. Rusty TrueXXX

Hello Roger, I know it has been a while, and I am truly sorry for that. A lot
has happened in the past few months and I've been trying to sort it all out.
Shortly after I last spoke to you, my wife was killed by a drunk driver. We had
also learned that she was pregnant. I do apologize for my delayed response to
you. It has been a rough past few months, but Andrew has made a soaring change
in character. He is now a lively, energetic, loving, playful, and huge hearted
Great Dane. He's also growing to. He's a wonderful dog, he's truly been a great
friend through being injured in Iraq and losing fellow soldiers, and most
importantly my dear wife. I don't know what I would have done without him. I'm
thinking about getting another Great Dane as well, hopefully you'll have some
Blue's within the next couple of months. Also, I'm attaching some pictures of
Andrew for you and your wife. Thank you for
Andrew, I know I came to you, but
thank you for having him. I knew when I bought him that I would return for
another Dane one day, and now it's concrete. I've spoken volumes about you and
your Danes anytime anyone asks where I got them and I give them the website so
hopefully you've had some luck with that, Take care and I look forward to
hearing from you soon. Kevin XXXX kevin.buXXXX@gmail.com

Here is my testimonial, I apologize it took so long to do it.
After returning home from Iraq where I was injured, I sought out a dog to help
with the healing process. I searched for a very long time, trying to find the
right breed. I came across Roger White's site and after reviewing the pictures,
videos, and other testimonials, I was instantly sold. Roger was very courteous
and professional when I dealt with him on the phone. I drove down from Virginia
to pick up the puppy (which my wife and I named Andrew) and was well received by
Roger, his wife, and their dogs. It was an extremely pleasant experience all
around. Andrew and I drove back to Virginia, an entire 1100 miles, and he was an
excellent travel companion.
Andrew was shy at first, he didn't want to eat, and wouldn't get up and play for
the first week and a half, and the whole time Roger called 1-2 times a day to
check on Andrew's progress. He even spoke with the Vet on the phone while I was
in the clinic with Andrew, and Roger made the whole situation easier. One day
Andrew, realizing that this was going to be his home and family, emerged out of
his shell. Now he eats like a horse and is a hit with the neighborhood kids!! My
wife passed away recently and little (now big) Andrew has been nothing but a God
send, and great friend. He is a very sweet and good natured dog, he has been
there through coming home from Iraq and losing my wife. Roger White truly
produces amazing Great Danes, you can tell from the first day that they came
from a good home. I can only hope that Roger has no intention of every stopping
what he does because it will be a sad day for all Great Dane owners who have
gotten Great Danes from him.
Thank you Roger, you're a great person, fellow Veteran, and good friend.

HI Its Mallory....Vyse's Mom. We just got home from the Vet who almost fell in
the floor when he saw this dog. He said it was absolutely perfect in
conformation, and personality. He said he was glad to see that some breeders
still know what they are doing. He was also very impressed that Roger wanted me
to come out and see the parents!! I was happy to tell him I got him from
GREATDANES4U and would bring him some pens and business cards. We will
definitely buy from GREATDANES4U again!!!

Hey Roger, Mason. The King. Where do I start with his "cute-ness"?
He has a girlfriend who lives next door. Her name is Addie and she's a
pug...........she's really not much bigger than Mason's whole head. They're
separated by a chain-link fence, but they manage to exchange kisses. Mason likes
to show off for her as well. Addie tries to dig a hole under the fence in order
to get closer to Mason. He also has another girlfriend who is a 2 month
old "Pugle" (pug/beagle). Her name is Peyton, and her colorings are exactly like
Mason's. She's practically no bigger than Mason's snout. Mason opens his mouth
and she sticks her little head in it (while her owner is holding her and I'm
"holding" Mason). He doesn't clamp down on her head, he just keeps his mouth
opened wide and wags his tail. Then she pulls her head out and licks his nose.
When my son, Bennett, goes to bed, Mason's routine is to jump on the bed and
snuggle with him until Bennett falls asleep. Bennett calls Mason "My Pup-Ness".
I've already described his crate with the couch cushions located in his own
bedroom. I've actually taken the door off of his crate. There's no need for
it........at least with Mason. My home business is tutoring, so I have
many students coming in and out of here. I have a few students who are not
"bothered" by Mason at all, and Mason actually snoozes on the floor while I'm
conducting my lessons. The ex-husband actually tries to hug me every once
in a while, and Mason is there in a heartbeat to push him off. Good dog!!
Mason also supervises Bennett's piano lessons. He likes Bennett's quirky piano
teacher. He doesn't like the rain or the cold, and he becomes very
"dainty" when he gets wet from the rain......seemingly walking on tip-toes while
banging on the door to be let back in. I vacuum and shampoo the cream
colored carpets thru-out the house A LOT. His body is big and broad,
his paws are huge, but it looks to me (but not to anyone else though) that his
head still has to grow into those floppy ears of his. When he turns his head
quickly, those huge, floppy ears slap him in his face. I always have to "fix"
them for him because they're usually flipped back. And he still has that "clean"
black snout. Sounds like I'm talking about a newborn baby, doesn't it?
Mason Allen is truly cherished around here! Deborah XXXXX

Helloooooo Roger! I am SO sorry that I haven't been in touch for months
and months. Too many things have gone on....adjusting to divorced life, moving
to a new house, two deaths in the family, and most recently, starting a new
business. Anyway, my BABY is doing just fine. I should get my "lazy" butt
up right now and transfer a photo or two from my camera to the computer, but I'm
just that right now....lazy. Mason Allen is like having a 150 lb. toddler!
So far, his sweet little brain hasn't caught up with the size of his body
yet....his facial expressions and body movements scream out PUPPY!!! He
can't stand being away from me...one of the reasons why I started a business
from home (just kidding). He's spoiled rotten (even got his own bedroom in
the new house --- complete with couch cushions as a "mattress" for his crate).
I haven't contacted JoAnne either out in Newark. Do you know how Clyde is doing?
I think she had mentioned back then that she changed his name, though.

Hi Roger You probably got my gushy voice message! Anyway, I called JoAnne XXXXXX tonight. She's quite a lady. At first I thought: Oh my, a great grandmother with an invalid husband out on a farm ....and a Dane puppy! Then we're talking, and I discover she has two additional grown Danes. We talk a bit more and I come to find out that she has TWENTY ONE Great
Danes. Twenty one!!! And as if THAT wasn't enough, I come to find out that she has 11 llamas.
I didn't ask her anymore questions. I'm definitely going to take the boys out to see their sister. I just gotta check this out. Deborah

Hey Roger! "Clyde" is doing great. He played, drank water, and peed outside. He also let
Mason know who was "the boss" at the beginning. However, Mason seems to be the dude in charge right now.
Clyde also chowed. Both he and Mason love the pig's ear chew that you sent. They were spatting between themselves in order to take possession of it. I've had those pig's ears in the past (not personally, mind you) so I'll plan on stocking up. One of the first things I noticed about
Clyde was that he is quite the "grunt-er". Whenever he's picked up, he goes through his entire grunting routine. I could just eat him up. And his tail has been wagging the whole time. They're both resting comfortably right now in side-by-side crates downstairs in the family room. Deborah

the insanity of Cairo. Though we haven't made it to the pyramids--and may not

RE: The Great Gatsby & Kaitlyn Reviews are missing...
Roger, Sorry I have taken so long to write you about the dog, but she is great.
She was scared witless after the insanity of air travel, but after one hour in
the car and 10 minutes at the rest stop, she was mine! She has been glued to my
side ever since. Since I picked her up last week, she has come along great. She
is potty trained, comes when called, knows her name, plays well with children,
pups, dogs and horses. Gatsby is an all-around great dog. Her crate was massive
and seemed therefore spacious for a pup of her size and yet was easy enough for
me to disassemble it by myself and load in the car at airport parking. She spent
her first day on a road trip to Canada and demonstrated from the beginning that
all-important trait of being able to 'chill' when necessary. She seems to travel
well, so fingers crossed at her upcoming trip to Cairo! Thanks for all your help
in this new and unfamiliar territory Roger, and EVERYONE wants to know where I
got my pup.

RE: Puppy has landed in Seattle
Hey Roger, I finally am back in Canada with Gatsby. they just about gave me a
stroke this morning though. 1st I went to the cargo area and they told me she
will be with the regular luggage at the baggage claim. ok. well, then they tell
me she didn't make it on the flight. turns out she was 'ghosted' or something, ie not listed in the cargo manifest. they did find her after a while of
searching the computer, I just rented one of
those luggage carts and it worked perfectly. she was scared out of her mind by
the time I got her.
She didn't go to the bathroom in the crate and went pee a little in the parking
area, but she held it 30 min to a rest stop where she and I finally got along.
she figured out there, that I was her human and has been 2 inches from my side
since then. she has yet to poop, but I will try again with her soon, she is
eating dinner now. and now it is my turn to eat. will call you after.
Sorry I couldn't call you earlier, my US cell had been on all week and the

Yuri is doing absolutely amazing! I think and everyone keeps telling me that he

makes everyone melt and he gets whatever he wants. He is still learning very
fast too. He knows sit, stay, come, and up. I am soo proud of him. He has made a
few new friends too. There is a harlequin great dane that he has had play dates
with, and he is best friends with a German shepard/ Rottweiller mix puppy. To
tell you the truth of everything I was prepared for he has definitely risen
above all of my expectations! Thank you again Roger for adding a new member to

Puppy Update
Hello Roger, I thought I would give you a update on little (not for too long)
Yuri. I decided to name him Yuri by the way. After taking him to his first vet
check-up he was given a perfect bill of health. He has no flees, ticks, or worms
at all!!! He is in perfect condition and everyone has fallen in love with him!
Those two sores that were on his upper lips that I had told you about earlier
were from him accidentally biting his lips. The vet says there is absolutely
nothing to worry about because he is eating fine and they don't give him any
pain.
I had socialized him with a Cavalier King Charles for the first time and at
first he was a little nervous but after about five minutes he was romping around
and having a blast! He is an excellent dog and he catches on and picks up
everything really really quick. Sunday I had started his training (I had helped
train large marine mammals before but never canines) and yesterday was the first
time that he had sit without a treat!!! I couldn't be more happy with him! I
have been crate training him so that he won't pee in the house and he hasn't
yet! He will hold it until he goes outside and more preferably in the backyard.
He is an excellent sleeper too.
I can't tell you how happy I am with him! Everyone has fallen in love with him
especially myself.
Thank you Roger (you definitely know what you are doing)!

Hello Roger,this is just to touch base with you. Cleo is now 110 lb., she is
spayed and very healthy. John and I are soon to be moving to S.C. on three
acres and so Cleo will have plenty of space to run and dig. We'll keep in touch.

Hi Roger, Cleo is adjusting very well since we got home on Tuesday evening. She had a vet visit on Wednesday and received few booster shots including parvo. By the way it's a good thing that we have a king size bed , Cleo took up residence in the middle of it. She is eating well and loves her yogurt. No problem house training, only one small slip up, as you said she is GREAT. We will send few pictures soon. 5/26/07 8:56 PM

The following is note written from sad owners of a returned puppy - things
happen, (other dog issue!!!)
Dear Great Dane Lover:
Anyone looking for a perfect
Fawn Great Dane puppy owes it to themselves to take a look at this beautiful 8
week old female.
We were so privileged to have her in our home for one
week. During that time she practically potty trained herself, knew where
everything was and what was hers and what was not, showed nothing but a
wonderful disposition and made us all fall in love with her.
Unfortunately Ethel, our 8-year-old boxer, felt
differently. Ethel was initially very good with her, but as the week went on,
she became increasingly more upset and started snapping at her without any
warning. The normal establishing who was boss was fine, but this was much more
aggressive and we could not handle the possibility of our little pup getting
hurt. After agonizing over what our options were, we knew that we had to return
the puppy to GreatDanes4U and let Roger find a home for her that would not be
filled with unexpected danger and terror.
We will be coming to GreatDanes4U for a Great Dane puppy
once our Boxer Ethel has enjoyed the rest of her one-dog-household life with us.
In the meantime, we highly recommend our little puppy in
particular and any other dogs GreatDanes4U has. We have never seen so many absolutely
wonderful dogs.
Thank you Robin XXXXX and Sue XXXXX May 15, 2008

Hey Roger...My name is Steve. I bought a Great Dane from you a few years back. I
drove all the way from St Louis MO on a hot day. She was the pick of the litter
that you had marked. Don't know if you remember her or not cause you have so
many puppies. She had quite a long ride home but luckily didn't throw up or
anything. I stopped in Sullivan at the Wal-Mart there to let her go to the
bathroom. And there in Sullivan was her first time smelling McDonalds lol. I
stopped there to grab a bite to eat. She didn't move the whole ride until i got
up to the pick up window. As soon as I rolled down the window and the smell of
food got in the car she shot right up with curious eyes and drooling mouth. lol
It was sooo freakin' funny man. Cause the rest of the ride she was just laying
there scared and perhaps home sick and missing her family already. But as soon
as that smell got in the car BAMN!! She shot up and started with that nose in
the air and almost crawling into my lap. And you know i couldn't resist giving
her a little something. Although at the time I made the rule that she would
never get human food LOL...That didn't last very long LOL Not even the truck
ride home LOL. She is a very sweet dog. She follows me everywhere I go and wants
to do everything that i'm doing. I eventually got her a buddy to play with, from
some people I knew wanting to get rid of their dog (male boxer named Drake) They
get along great together. Anyway I just wanted to say that her name is Dakota
and she is doing awesome. She's beautiful and very sweet. I love her to death.
I've attached a picture of her. I really appreciate you helping me with my first
Dane. Thanx, Steve Sat 5/03/08 3:57 AM St. Louis, MO.

Our long overdue testimonial - sorry
To: Roger White
We became fascinated with the Great Dane breed some time ago and were finally in
a position to obtain a pup about a year and a half ago (7-06). We settled on
"Great Danes4U" mainly because of the local proximity and because we were sold
on Roger's rearing methods. Sure enough we were not disappointed with our new
family member - a fawn male named Max. As a matter of fact, we had no idea
having a puppy could be so easy, (very few accidents in the house starting at
only 12 weeks old) especially based upon our previous experience with Labs.
Unfortunately we attributed too much of our good fortune to the breed itself and
decided we would save ourselves a couple bucks by adopting a friend for Max.
Long story short, that was a major mistake. The difference was night and day
between the two dogs (both Great Danes) and it was quite clearly not going to
work out - we returned the new dog to her foster home. Ultimately we realized
what a mistake it was to take Roger's operation for granted and purchased a
second brindle male we named Oliver about 3 months ago (10-07). We have had a
similarly pleasant experience with Oliver at 8 through 20wks old and they get
along famously. They were quite possibly the most valuable purchases we have
ever made. Jason and Brandie XXXXX

Hi Roger, We wanted to see if we could bring Max (Angel and Sunny parents, born 4/30/06) by for a visit with the family. We’ll be not far from town the 4th through the 8th, if you’re available. Also we would have a recently adopted 16 month old mantle
Great Dane with us, if that’s alright. Please let us know if this works for you. I am attaching a few photos of Max. Thanks, Brandie and Jason Tue 7/03/07 1:04 AM

Roger, We brought Max and the female mantel we adopted for a visit around the middle of July. The partnership doesn’t seem to be working out too well with them and we are going to be returning her to the Springfield rescue this weekend (9-22). We wanted to see if you might be available for another visit from Max (one of Angel’s pups from 4-30-06). We also noticed
your new litters and thought we might like to get a look at the brindle males. We are trying to time it so that it is a little later in the day – considering your wife. Please let us know if that’s possible, we are excited to see them. Thanks, Jason and Brandie Wed, 19 Sep 2007 15:56:37 -0500

The Vet also really appreciated the care you took in organizing her shots and such since birth, she even took all the meds that you left with us and pulled the stickers off and put on Addy’s chart for future reference.

Roger, Always looking at your web site to see your new additions not that I have
any room for anymore but I just like to look. Mater and
Mugz are doing great
they weigh about 130 lbs each and are the height of your Danes already and still
growing. They take turns one will fill out nicely and then all of a sudden he
will shoot up and then looks really skinny again. They are so funny to watch
they love each other so much and they are very slobby when they drink and they
each take turns cleaning the drool from there mouths. Mugz likes to pet you like
you are the dog and he seems to be very shy he doesn't like loud noises he runs
and hides behind you like you should protect him and there's Mater that has to
investigate everything. They are the loves of my life and I don't think that I
could live without them.
The little one that you have as a Christmas special did someone buy him and then
return him to you? Wish I had room I'd add him but our city has a dog law of
only 2 dogs per household. He looks really cute and reminds me of Mater a great
deal.
Well as soon as I get the picture with the kids and the dogs done I will send
you a copy. Have a wonderful Christmas if I don't talk to you before then.
How is Cleo doing? Mater and
Mugz would like to know.

Mater is finally settling down and Mugz is mommies baby when I come home from work and don't pay attention to him right away he grabs hold of my skirt and pulls it to let me know that he's here. They are the love of my life and couldn't imagine life with out either of them. The kids love them to death too. I wish that we lived out of the city so we could have more dogs I would love to buy more because I know that we would be getting the best dogs possible. I will keep you up on everything and as soon as I get vet paperwork I will forward it to you. Have a great day.

Hi, This is Nicole. Sorry I didn't get back to you sooner but I have been really busy. The puppy is great. My grandpa loved him. The puppy does not leave his side. He is getting really big from when I bought him from you. When I download the pictures I will send you some if you would
like to see what he looks like. Thank you so much for the little guy. He has a great home with a loving owner. My grandpa ended up naming him
Cherokee after his old one that past away to honor a good dog. So your puppy is in a great home and is being taken good care of. Thank you
again so much we love the little guy. Sincerely, Nicole Mon 11/19/07 11:44 AM Santa Clarita, CA.

Hello there, I am located in Vermont, looking for a Fawn male and female. I noticed on your website that you are expecting Fawn puppies on Thanksgiving and you also seem to have the best quality care for your prices. I want beautiful Great Danes for breeding that will produce beautiful pups! I am wondering if you can keep me up-to-date on the puppies you are expecting and also the price you will be selling them at. Shipping will also be a cost, and if you could include that with your price estimates, it would be appreciated. If we come to an agreement about the purchase of a puppy or two, I will definitely want to set up a webcam session when they arrive!!! Thank you for all your help, Floral Sun 10/28/07 9:21 AM

Sad story but the family now does have a Happy new beginning...
Roger, Thanks for taking the time to write. I have some unfortunate news for you. When we took
Max to the vet to have him neutered, he went into cardiac arrest and could not be revived. It was devastating to my family especially since Max was so loving. We had the proper blood work done for the anesthesia and it came back clear prior to the surgery. We had Max buried in a pet cemetery and had a service that was very important to my youngest boy Trey, who is eight. He still talks about Max and how he misses him. I've enclosed a picture of Sampson. He was about 1 1/2 in this picture, 35 inches at the shoulders (36 inches now at 2 years) and goes about 175lbs. He is really beginning to fill out. Sampsons Dad is two inches shorter and goes 185lbs at 7 years old. We have a picture of Sampsons grandpa who was a show dog in
Florida and was 36 inches and 200lbs in his prime. More importantly, Sampson is a great dog with a loving demeanor. That's what makes losing Max so tuff. They would have had great times playing together. Anyway, sorry for the bad news as I know like us, you care very much for all of your dogs... even the ones you sell. Keep in touch, Mark, Nebraska

Mark came back to me for an other Great Dane. He got his 2nd from me out of Kitty's litter DOB 27 Aug 2007 - People know who raise Great Great Danes for the Best family members!!!
I am still waiting for updates but until then read on...
&&&&&
Roger, It's Mark and Tiffani XXXX from up in Nebraska. We purchased
Max (pictured below) when you were overseas in May of 2005. I think it was your sister that helped us when you were gone. Also, if you remember
Max passed away shortly after we received him from the anesthesia that was administered during the neutering process. Max was born March 30th, 2005 to parents Sunny and Lady. Pictured with
Max below is our now 3yr old fawn Sampson. Sampson was great with Max and we think he's again ready for a friend. Sampson has the life of luxury. We have a walk out basement with a built in kennel. The kennel has heat and A/C so when it's too hot or too cold Sampson has his choice to come inside. Our backyard is nearly an acre fenced so there is plenty of room to roam. We really enjoyed
Max the short time we had him and we have agreed we are ready to add another Dane to our home. When we told you the bad news with
Max, you said to contact you when we were ready to add another Dane and you could work out a deal with us. Sex of the dog is not important. We will know the dog for us when we meet him/her. We plan on coming down to Missouri within the next 2-4 weeks to visit family in Joplin. Please let me know when would be the best time to view the dogs and the price range available. Thanks again, Mark and Tiffani Fri, 5 Oct 2007 22:33:47 -0500

Hi Mark: I not only remember it well, I have your comments on my testimonials page within the website.
You are in luck as I have 1 1/2 litters on the ground. The younger litter from Nabila are 5 generation color pure will be 6 weeks old Monday = in 2 weeks, we (Wife & I did get married in the Philippines when you got your previous pup from me), might be on a trip to Southern California.
I always try to help especially when the loss was not either of our fault.
Please call me for more information or to schedule a web cam appointment!
Thank you, Roger White 417.267.3498
PS Thanks for the photos and I am glad to hear from you! I am very pleased you not only thought of me, but remembered how to contact me!

Roger, Just wanted to update you on how
Quincy is doing.
He is doing fabulous. He gets along great with the other dogs and is right at
home in our heated kennel. His personal kennel area is four feet by six feet so
he has plenty of room to sleep and chew his bones. He has a very pleasant
personality and is great with the kids and strangers alike. Our fenced backyard
is about 3/4 an acre but Quincy's preference is to be inside with us (just like
Sampson).
We couldn't be happier with him. I'll send some pictures in the near future. He
has great lines and is maturing into a very handsome Dane. Thanks again, Mark

Albert all grown up Sent: Tue 7/10/07 8:54 PM
Roger, Thought that I would send you a picture of
Albert all grown up. He is doing great! I was also wondering if maybe you had a female brindle pup available, or if you might have one soon?
Thanks Stevie & Albert in AR
&&&&&&&
RE: Albert all grown up Sent: Wed 7/11/07 12:35 AM
I would be interested in either Kitty or
Nabilia, indoor home is a definite thing here, however, I do not fence or chain my big dogs. My toy poodles and Cockers are in kennels. It would be best, no matter the price, that I got a female who is acceptable for the no fence rules. We have 28 acres with a perimeter fence and that is it. Albert has the yard and then some to play in while he is outside. Yes, Albert is 2 years old. I have often considered getting him fixed, but he is by far the most beautiful animal I have ever had, far and above my other Dane, Einstein, who was slightly flawed. How old is Kitty? And Nabilia? Not that there is any rush since both are having litters soon, but when would either one be available?
You know, I looked for almost two years to find Albert, I am just going back to the source, so to speak. Thanks for writing back! STEVIE
*(See Clients' Photos Page).
&&&&&&&
Roger, Thanks so much for letting me know you got the check. I am counting the days
until I can bring him home. I even told my mom that he is going to be with me at Christmas, we are going to Iowa to visit my family. See ya soon, Stevie

Hey Roger, Albert made the trip home just fine and is right now sleeping under my desk here at work. He slept with us last night and did really well only woke me up once to go outside and that was at 2:30am. Thank you again so much. Stevie

Roger, Just thought I would drop you a line on how
Albert is doing. He is growing beautifully, his ear crop turned out perfect. He is probably the most beautiful Dane I have ever seen. I am so happy with my pup, he is fabulous! Thanks again for being there to raise my Albert in the first place! Stevie, Ark
*(See Clients' Photos Page).
&&&&&&
Roger, Albert is everything I had hoped for and more, he is beautiful and beastly! He gets along well with all the other dogs, except for Shelby, the Peke,
she scares him. He does well with the horses, but barks at the ones he doesn't
know. He loves to wrestle and rough house with anyone who will attempt it, but
is very gentle with my one year old granddaughter. He hogs the bed but I don't
mind, my husband does. He has free roam on 28 acres and has never wandered off.
I love him, I may be wanting another soon!! Trust me I will return to you for
all future pups!
&&&&&&&&&&
I am searching for a fawn male. My Dane past away two summers ago, he was eight years old. I know that a new Dane cannot replace Einstein, but it will help fill a void that I have had since he has been gone. Please contact me at 501-XXX-XXXX, thank you. Stevie, Ark
Roger, Last night I went to your website. That is the reason that I chose to write to you. I am not looking for a show quality Dane, but I do want one that is ethically color bred, not some trash bred that came from a cross that should never have been made. I breed American Quarter Horses and understand the ideas of proper crosses. I am also a big fan of breed standards, that is what makes a dog a dog, not a mutt. I live in Arkansas in the north central portion of the state. I have
traveled as far as Ohio for a horse so it makes no problem for me to come to Missouri for a puppy. The pup does not have to be perfect in color or markings, my other Dane wasn't, he had a white toe and a dirty chest, but he was perfect for me. I want a fawn because in my opinion that is the best Dane color, it is my favorite. I will call you sometime today to discuss this further. Thank you for your
prompt response. Stevie, Ark

Roger, Please take me off the e-mail list. Also, Cathy and I are very happy with the puppy we picked up last Sunday. The puppy is doing great and will visit the vet on Tuesday. Thanks for calling & have a

Subject: Rory Roo Hey Roger, Just wanted to up date my
Rory Roo baby and tell you that Jasmin looks like a wonderful person.
She's very pretty and you look very happy. Congratulations!!!
Roo (for kangaroo)
is doing great! She is turning into a beautiful dog at 100 lb. and 30 in ---- I think. She dislikes the yard sick by her side so
it's hard to measure. I know it when she steps on my foot though! My yard is starting to look like a bombing has occurred with all the digging and my remote controls have become her chew toys.... good thing she's cute. She has done great at socializing we can go anywhere even the dog park and she's wonderful. It's like having my own court jester around the house with all her antics. Bailey and the cats still don't get why I brought home a Great Dane but they'll adjust in time... I had a professional picture taken of Roo at 5 months I'd like to send you but I can't find your address. Could you send it to me? Well you take care and say HEY to Jasmine for me..

Hi Roger! Wanted to update you on our pup, Roo, she's great, doing great and a wonderful addition to our family. I'm so happy we decided to get her! I forgot what it's like having a baby in the house though! But she is very intelligent and catches on fast. She probably thinks her name is "NO". She likes to debate when I tell her NO but I always win with kisses and hugs from her. Jess named her Rory from Gillmore Girls show I just call her "baby", don't tell Jess : ) She really missed her mom and brothers and sisters at first she cried and howled for hours when left alone. She sleeps with me now ) : I know I know they say don't start that but she spoons very nicely and doesn't howl anymore. She is growing soooo fast! We got her at 8 wks and 12 lb. then I swear 9 days later she grew over night I'm guessing she's about 20 lb now at 10 wks. her paws have doubled in size! WoW!
She loves soft squeaky toys and hooves to chew on. Her favorite is her tennis ball though she loves to play catch and she brings it back every time for me to throw again and again. Has learned to sit also. Potty training is going great! Thank goodness, that and chewing all my furniture were my biggest
worries. She's had her moments with my plants but has them all trimmed up nicely now. She goes out side to potty for the most part. We watch for the signs and just do it after a nap and in the morning and before bed at night. When she does go in the house it's 90% of the time on the paper. I think two or three more
weeks and we'll have it mastered. Thank you Roger for a wonderful well adjusted dog. Your love and care of your animals really comes out in
Rory Roo. I have some great pictures I need to pull off my camera I'll send them soon.

Hey Roger! How are things? looks like your busy with lots of puppies as usual. Guess what? I ran into one of your pups. I just dropped Jess off at school and was driving away through the subdivision when I saw a guy walking his Dane pup. The face and eyes looked so much like Rory's I had to stop and ask him about his beautiful dog. Keep in mind that I'm near the high school and cars and buses are all going around me but we talked for just a few minutes and realized we had you in common. I can't remember his name he lives on Krinkel st. here in st Charles though and his dogs name was something that started with an "M" and I think he said he was 3 1/2 months old. He suggested we get the dogs together but I didn't get enough info from him for that because I had to get out of the way of traffic. If you know who I'm talking about please give him my E-Mail address. He said he calls you on the phone all the time. I sure would appreciate it Roger thanks.
Rory is doing great by the way. I tell ya Great Danes are a very unique animal from the bouncing to the ploping to the curiosity about everything she is like no shepered or collie I've ever had. I found danesonline.com before I got Rory I see all the personality in the pictures now in Rory that I didn't catch before I got her. She is so cool! I could see me getting another someday but I think 2 dogs, 2 cats a rat, a fish and a teenager who
now it all is enough for now! Well I will talk to ya later off to work I go... someone has to feed all these things. Thanks again, Kris St. Charles, MO.

Roger/Tammy, *(Tammy played mid-wife to a Jan litter while I went on vacation in the Philippines) We just wanted to drop a note (and a picture) to you to let you know how well
Peyton is doing. We decided to keep the “code name” Tammy had given her. It fits so well! Not only is she extremely beautiful with perfect markings, but she is SO smart! Can you believe at 8 weeks old, she’s already going to the door to be let outside to go potty?? We feel blessed and extremely lucky to have gotten her. She is being spoiled rotten and we wouldn’t have her any other way! Thanks so much for the newest addition to our family. Terry, Kim, Cliff, Victoria and Peyton Plunkett 7:49 PM 3/20/07Kimmie

Hi Roger, I just wanted to let you know how well Jordis (brindle female) was doing. I was very skeptical of getting a large dog, considering that my dogs weigh no more than 4 pounds. My
fiancé had grown up with shepards and a wolf/ shepard. He longed for a large dog for our house, because he thinks my little dogs are little rats. He wanted my son to have a larger companion. I wanted a standard poodle, but after talking to you realized a great dane was for me. I went behind my
fiancé's back and surprised him with Jordis, my "little" girl. He fell in love with her instantly. Our house is not a home without her. She never messes in our house, she doesn't pick on my smaller dogs, and her best friend is my little weenie dog. She lays down while Ryder lays under her head chewing on her neck and face. When we go outside to play, I pat my chest and she jumps up parallel to me and gives me a dane hug. Her arms wrap around my neck, and she burries her head in my neck. My neighbors laugh because she is much taller than I am on her hind legs, and it looks like I am hugging a monster. The only problem with her is that she thinks of herself as a lap dog, which I LOVE but house guests don't. All I have to say is
Jordis get down, and she parks her butt on the couch right beside them sitting in on conversation. She lives to love, and loves my son and my small dogs especially. My Chihuahua rules over her every day. If Frito growls at her she cowers down like he is the devil. I love to watch her interactions with
everything. She is so smart and I am never going to buy any other dog besides a Great Dane again! She is perfect. Sydney 11/13/2006 12:28:26 PM

Hello Roger, Sorry it took so long to send you a note! The puppy is doing great! He was a bit unsure for the ride home (a LONG one) but by the time we were almost home, he was walking on the leash pretty well. Took him a day or two to settle in, but has made friends and loves to play tug of war with one of my other dogs. He is very friendly and never meets a stranger.
Terri Gordon - Colorado
Hi Roger, It was nice meeting you and all your "kids" WE made it home fine. IT was late when we did finally get home. The puppy was an angel. He was so good, you didn't even know he was there!
Terri Gordon - Colorado
Hi Roger, Thanks so much for the directions and motel lists!! It looks like I won't be able to leave until Saturday, late afternoon. I plan to pick the puppy up on Sunday, whatever time we get there. I hate to wait, but I really want my son to be able to come with me. I am going to send the cashier's check express mail tomorrow, you will have it Tuesday or Wednesday at the latest. I will email you the tracking number as soon as I have it!
Terri Gordon - Colorado
*****************
Roger It was good talking with you, and I'm glad that your Danes are doing well. I no that I am very happy with
Hercules, and would not get rid of him for the world. A person could not ask for a better friend, and it does not matter how bad of a day you had he is always waiting at the door with with his tail wagging. Thank you for such a wonderful friend.
Thank you Jessie Morgan (Texas)

I have a Great Dane that is 10 months old. He has made me realized how hard it is to make sure that he gets the nutrition he need to keep up with his quickly growing body. This is because of lack of quality dog food for the x-large breed. Mainly, I wanted to let you know how healthy your puppies and for that matter, your adult dogs look.

Hello, I just went to your web site and you have very nice great danes. I live near Branson. I am a dog lover and a horse lover. I used to show and raise dogs, and I have a horse. Hope to hear back from you. Jill
*****************
Hello, Just had the privilege of viewing your website. You obviously love your dogs and that is apparent in the pictures, video and GREAT captions. It made me miss our Dane even more. Thank you for reminding me what wonderful spirits these gentle giants are. I especially love the fact that your darlings are "Au Natural" My family has done rescue for greyhounds up until 2004 and now we rescue Cavaliers. We still must admit that our first love is the Brainy Zany Big Ole Daney. Not poetic just the truth. I have contacted the local rescue and we are waiting for a response. Hope your days are Great and from what I have seen on your site that is a given!
God Bless,

Hi Roger......
I am sorry it took so long to finally get a chance to sit down and write you. I got both your calls but I just wasn't in the right place or the right time to talk. "Daphne" is doing great. Seems like she has already grown so much in one week!! She has a great personality and is playing very well with a couple of dogs around the neighborhood. She has really taken to sleeping in the bed at night (practically takes up the whole thing by the time she gets comfortable) we laugh about it until we fall asleep. She is eating in the morning and at night. And already whines when she knows she needs to get outside to go to bathroom. She hasn't quite figured out where the doors are yet, but she is close. She follows my daughter around everywhere she goes, which is exactly what I was hoping for! I will try to keep you posted as she grows, in a timely fashion! Thanks! Melanie Elsberry, MO
*****************
Roger, Blackie is now named "Libby". She is a doll and has yet to have an accident in the house. We are supervising her closely and feel that she will be housebroke in a week or two. She already response to "you want to go outside". She slept in the bed with us and just loves to cuddle. I think she thinks that she has a little yorkie in her because she wants to be a lap dog! Thanks again and we'll keep you posted on her. I attached a pic of her in the house. Denny, St. Louis, MO.

Puppy Master...
I apologize for not getting back to you sooner...I have been on the "Tread Mill of Life" and somebody put it in high gear. I am currently in New Jersey working on a circuit upgrade and I will be returning home late tonight.
Malachi is doing well... He thinks that he is a chewing machine at the current moment. Also, I need to make time to clip his razors...I mean nails to try to keep him from drawing any more blood than he has. The cats are displaying 2 different responses. The older cat is basically trying to stay away from him but is not as P.O.'ed that he is in the house as he was with Goliath. The second hasn't decided if he wants to play with him or not. He doesn't necessarily run away but he definitely is concerned about the size of this new creature. Not to mention that the dog looks a lot like a cat when he sees the smaller cat. He takes a step waits for approximately 45 seconds then slowly takes the next and continues this until the cat gets too uncomfortable and takes off...then the chase is on. The cat looking for a place to feel more at ease, the dog thinking it's time to play and off they go. How is the rest of the litter doing???
Sean... Maryland
&&&&&&&&&&&&
Roger, Malachi is all BOY. He is into everything. I now charge the kids 10 cents every time I have to pull out a stuffed animal or a shoe from his mouth. He loves to ride in the car and will go on any adventure. Today he was helping dig dirt. He does love the task. We are building new gardens around the house and he loves to dig in the dirt. He has the best personality and is doing well. The worst animal we have is a cat and he will chase the younger one, but he is afraid of the older one. He is so cute. It is hard to tell him to “leave it” when he looks so cute just holding it. He is getting very large. We have him on the same food that you did. I found it at Walmart and he had no stomach upset. I can definitely say he is a great dog and you did a wonderful job with the breeding. I will send more pictures next week. We are going out of town this weekend. Have a great day.
Sandy, Maryland
&&&&&&&&&&&&
Hey Puppy Master,
It has been a while…too much still going on here. Malachi is still doing well. He is approx about waist high, maybe higher, at the top of the head and I want to say approximately 90-100 lbs, possibly more. Sandy would know more of the specifics. Very good disposition still…he is working on his defiant stage, Teenagers – What do you expect ! ! !, but all in all…he is not all that bad. Loves to dig in the garden and drink out of the fountain. Cars are not as interesting as before, but they still offer a challenge from time to time. The kids get upset on occasion when Malachi sits on them, wanting to use them as a piece of furniture or a lumpy bean-bag chair. And, most anybody is a possible human napkin. I need to send my Digital Camera off to be fixed…once I get it back I will send a couple of pictures.
Sean…

Hi Roger, I just wanted to let you know we had the best trip back! He was soooo good, of course he was held the whole way!!! Also, I
couldn't wait... Doug LOVES Winston I knew he would be surprised but he cried for 20 min. before he said a word. He loves him so much. He is such a perfect addition. He did great last night too, we made his bed beside ours and slept all night. He woke at 2 with a little
whimper and went right back to sleep. He is great and we love him. I cant thank you enough for caring and raising such wonderful pets!! I will send you pictures soon! Thanks Again!! Julie
Hi Roger, We are doing great!! Winston is everything we wanted! He weighs 92 lbs. and is a big baby...... he loves to play but he also loves to be loved!!! He seems to be getting braver and braver as the days pass. He ventures further and is becoming more inquisitive. We are having a bit of a trial with him wanting to nip and chew EVERYTHING, including us .... he has alot of energy and Im not sure if this is an outlet for the energy?? Other than that, he has a beautiful muzzle and coat. The Vet has given him thumbs up each time we have gone and was impressed with the girth he has. A couple weeks ago I gave a man your telephone #. I will let him know you have a litter. Thanks for touching base and I will Email you pictures soon! Julie, St. Louis

Subject: great dane puppies
I was just wondering how much you charge per puppy? I've been thinking of getting a great dane:
I was just trying to get a cost estimate of this type of dog. My mother lives right down the road from you , and
that's how I knew how to contact you. please e-mail me back at

Subject: My puppy
Roger, Hey how are the puppies doing. I would like to know if it would be possible to pick the puppy up a week from today. The oldest is working that weekend, and she would like to be with me when I pick him up. We are extremely excited and can't wait to bring the little fella home. Please email me with your answer. If he won't be ready we'll understand, let me know when he can come home. Thanks. Lynne Marshfield, MO.
******************
Hi, Hope your weekend was good! Just looking at the website and the great pictures of the dogs!! Here is my e-mail so you can send me directions. I'll call you as soon as maggie comes into heat. Thank You, Andrea, Marshal, MO.
*****************
Hi Roger, how are you doing? I am doing alright! That is cool that you take your dogs places with you! We don't have a
pets mart or anything like that here in Minot it is a small town ...there isn't to much to do around here! Oh well we will be here for awhile longer! If you have any pictures of this male could you send them to me? That would be awesome if you could! Thanks for getting back to me I appreciate it!! Tamara, North Dakota-Minot AFB
I always visit your website to see what is new and to look at your dogs! I think you have a lot of great looking animals! I spoke with you last summer about one of your females that you had I want to say her name was daisy but I never got back to you
because I HAD LOST your number. Well if you would like to speak with me on the phone I am usually up and wondering around in the mornings about 9:30. My phone number is 701 XXX-XXXX. Well once again thanks for getting back to me I appreciate it! Have a good night! Tamara, North Dakota-Minot AFB
&&&&&
Howdy Roger how's it going? I am doing well today! Well I talked to my hubby and showed him the pup and he likes the pup too. So in other words I will be visiting you this
Friday. I am going to leave to head down to Missouri Thursday night and get down there sometime
Friday I will have my cell on me so I will be able to call you when I am close Well I will give you a call and let you know when I am leaving and what not! So I will talk to you soon and see you soon! Thanks Tami
Hey Roger how's it goin? We are all doing fine! Well first off we named our new guy
Brutus! We at first couldn't figure out an appropriate name for him, so we got to thinking about it and because he was already so big when we got him we named him Brutus. He is a wonderful big boy. We love him to death. He gets along with out other dogs
extremely well. He has brought one of our other dogs out of his shell so that is cool! House breaking hasn't worked so far I guess because everything is still frozen up here so smells are different, so that has been difficult. Now as far as socialization he is a big goober. He loves to play with all the other dogs when I take him to the dog park. He is so funny because he doesn't realize how big he is sometimes and he is soooo clumsy! Brutus is about 9 months now and he is taller than my other danes who are a year old and one that is over 3 years old. He is going to be huge so the name fits because he is a Brut!! I would
definitely buy another dog from you in the future! I would definitely recommend others to buy a pup from you also. Well take care and I will send you pictures soon! Tami, North Dakota-Minot AFB

Roger, Dixie is doing great. She was a little scared at first, but has adjusted well. Attached is a picture of her at my work trying to fit into my partner's dog's bed. I think she is too big! Tracy
Roger, Glad you liked the pictures. The vet didn't say too much only that she weighed 41 pounds and was ready anytime to be spade. He also gave her the rest of her shots. They wrote all the stuff down on her chart that you had given us. We decided to name her
Dixie and all of our family and friends think she is a beautiful dog. Everyone has commented on her coloring. She is really starting to act like a puppy now. Tippy and Dixie still have words for each other, but Tippy is starting to relax. I wish I had a camera today. I make Tippy and Dixie share the backseat for now so they bond more. Well Tippy was laying down on the seat and Dixie was laying right on top of her. What a sight! And no comments from either of them. Well I am at the plant today so I need to get some work done. Tracy
*************
Roger, Mandy is doing great. she is getting adjusted to all of of us and is doing great so far with her training. Although she is still very
skittish. but she is doing a lot better. just wanted to tell u her and the pig
don't play together because for one the pig doesn't like to play at all. But the main reason is is because
Mandy is afraid of her and wont go very close to her. so
I'm afraid we wont be able to send u pictures of her and the pig playing together. but anyways mandy is doing great and she is a very good and well behaved dog. Thanks, Michelle, Colorado
*****************
Roger, thanks for the fast reply. I do not have the plans of breeding or showing
Ella. She is to be a play companion for my harlequin male. I had hoped that you would had way to contact the original purchasers to see if she had been spayed or shot records. She does have a small rough spot 2" long on her stomach where it may have done but it is very hard to see you can only feel it. The behavioral problems they were talking about have yet to be seen. She seem to be a typical Dane puppy with a lot of energy. With the quality of dogs you are known for producing I would have found it hard to believe she is so dysfunctional. If you would have seen where she was at I got her you would understand why I took her home with me. She was chained with about 6' of run to the porch with no doghouse or shelter just an old blanket on the ground. The chain was tangled and she was walking in her own poop. I would have taken her no matter what just to get her away from the other breeders. Even their other breeding dogs were not being very well taken care of. They were chained with very similar conditions. Any information about this dog would be greatly appreciated thanks, Shawn, St. Louis, MO.
&&&&&&&&
Hey Roger, Ella is doing great she is about 30" to 31" tall and 91 lb. not to shabby for the runt of the litter. She is now papered and has a good personality not a biter like she was made out to be. She is a little shy around some strangers but, she has my 150 LB male Dane to do introductions and make sure that everyone is OK to go around. She is a clown, and everything is a game so, we play as much as possible. thanks for the interest, Shawn, St. Louis, MO.
&&&&&&&&&
Subject : Ella
Hey Roger, This is Mary, my boyfriend Shawn and our two great danes Jake and Ella recently visited you. I just wanted to thank you for taking the time to talk to us and let us visit with you, the horse, and
Ella's other family. It was great I really enjoyed it. It was interesting to see the other dogs. I tell people the pictures don't do justice to your dogs. Their coloring is fantastic, they look healthy, happy, and big. I used to volunteer for a local rescue group and have seen quite a few danes. Yours are exceptional. If you have someone in the St. Louis area interested in one of your dogs, I'd be happy to talk to them. I'm not that great with the computer so I'll try to send you some pictures of Ella through the mail. Hope all is well in your corner of the world.

Subject : Brindle Baby : Charlie
Hi Roger, This is Amanda XXXXXXXX writing you. I'm sorry I haven't kept you up to date on Charlie, the puppy my husband and I bought from you. As you know we made the 13 hour drive from Wisconsin to pick him up. He has been a perfect addition to our home, ever since we brought him home. He is our 'baby' and everyone refers to him as if he was our child. He has an amazing temperament and has become very vocal of late. In the beginning, I was worried because he was so laid back and friendly. I felt like he wouldn't be a very good protector, but as he's getting older, and bigger, he has become more confident. He barks at strangers, but not in a threatening way. He would never bite anyone, but he lets them know he's there and he sees them. He's 'woof's' quite a bit, as well. We love him so much, and he is such a huge part of our lives. He also loves us beyond belief. We can't go anywhere in the house without him following, and when we come home, even if we've only been gone a couple of minutes, he is so excited to see us he is quivering and whining. We are also impressed with how quickly he learned and picked up on things. He was almost immediately potty trained and knows a lot of tricks. He walks so well on a leash and we can let him run around in the park and at the dog park without worrying about him running away or not listening. My husband and I love Charlie so much! Thanks so much for your time. Amanda, Wisconsin

My husband and I are looking for a fawn colored female. You puppies are so cute. We have a black male named Cooper about 7mo old. We are looking to add another dane to our family. I was wondering if you would take payments and if you so do you deal with shipping at all. We live in Wisconsin. Please let me know. Justin & Fritzi,Wisconsin
HELLO ROGER, THANK YOU FOR ALL THE INFORMATION. YOU ARE RIGHT ABOUT SHIPPING A DOG PLUS IT WOULD PROBABLY BE BETTER IF WE CAME TO PICK OUT THE FAWN PUPPY OUR SELVES. I WOULD LIKE TO SEE THE LITTLE FEMALE FAWN BEFORE I PURCHASE HER. MY HUSBAND AND I ARE PLANNING TO COME TO MISSOURI SOMETIME THIS MONTH TO SEE THE PUPPIES. I'M NOT SURE IF I TOLD YOU WHICH ONES WE WERE INTERESTED IN BUT ITS ONE OF THE FEMALE FAWNS. COULD YOU GIVE US DIRECTIONS OR AT LEAST YOUR FULL ADDRESS SO I COULD GET DIRECTIONS FROM ON LINE. JUSTIN AND I ARE COMING FROM WISCONSIN RAPIDS, WI... WAY UP NORT'! IT WILL PROBABLY BE A WEEKEND IN JUNE IF THAT IS OKAY WITH YOU. YOUR WEB SITE IS GREAT BY THE WAY. IT WAS NEAT TO SEE ALL THAT YOU DO FOR YOUR DOGS. THAT IS IMPORTANT TO US EVEN IF WE ARE JUST PURCHASING FOR A HOUSE PET. WOULD YOU MIND IF WE BROUGHT OUR GREAT DANE WITH. HE IS VERY GOOD WITH OTHER DOGS... HIS NAME IS COOPER. HE LIKES TO TRAVEL WITH US. HE IS ONLY 7MO OLD, BUT IF YOU ARE UNCOMFORTABLE WITH THE IDEA LET US KNOW AND I WILL
MAKE SURE WE GET A SITTER. ONE QUESTION HOW OLD ARE THE FEMALE FAWNS? IF I HAVE ANYMORE QUESTIONS I WILL BE SURE TO GIVE YOU A CALL OR E-MAIL YOU. WE'LL LET YOU KNOW EXACTLY WHAT DAY WE'LL BE TRAVELING. I BELIEVE ITS ONLY AND 11 HOUR DRIVE ONE WAY... THAT SHOULDN'T BE TOO BAD. THANKS AGAIN JUSTIN AND FRITZI, Wisconsin

Good Morning!
Wow. I can't tell you how great it is having found your ad in the Chicago Trib today (being mom's day and all). My husband and I spent some time just looking at all the neat links and pics. Thank you.
We currently have a 3 yr old Boxer, 92# & her ears aren't cropped either, named Tessa, having had lost our other dog to the complications of old age earlier this year. It has been hard, but I think we are ready to move on (besides, it is way too quiet around here now).
I am looking for another female, but really would only want a friend-in other words, no showing or breeding. Do you have any pups currently, or coming up, that would potentially fit with us? I know you say to call, but when is the best time to do that?
Thank you again, Terry OlmsXXXX Freeport, Il.

I'M SORRY THAT I AM NOT INTERESTED IN YOUR PUPS, ALTHOUGH THEY LOOK SO PRECIOUS! I AM JUST COMMENDING YOU ON HOW YOU RAISE THEM! ITS SAD TO SAY THAT MOST DO NOT!!! SOME RAISE, AND BREED DOGS IN THE MOST ATROCIOUS CONDITIONS! IT JUST SICKENS ME!! IT ALSO SICKENS ME ON HOW PEOPLE TREAT SOME ANIMALS ONCE THEY DO GET THEM, EVEN AFTER PAYING LOTS OF MONEY! I AM JUST SO GLAD WHEN I SEE GOOD BREEDERS! GOOD LUCK W/ YOUR PUPS!

Thank you for offering your assistance. I breed german shepherds part-time. I am a vet tech.
Ii just recently bought a female from this lady, and the dog is
gorgeous, and so sweet. she is terrified of everything. every little noise, everyone except me, and my dad. she is even scared of my daughter whose has been around a lot, and tried to have contact w/ her.
Ii ask the lady if she if anyone has ever abused her which obviously they have.
Ii found out later, that this lady has a puppy mill! she currently has 38 dogs 4 sale on live deals, and their all
different breeds. I had NO idea!!! its so sad, and just really upsets me! does the humane society oppose this type of thing? there is this one dude from
Cave City, KY also that breeds german shepherds, and he is on live deals too! he breeds at like 1 year old, every heat cycle, breeds until they can't regardless of age. he know NOTHING about the breed itself, or dogs in general! it is
appalling! i just wish there is something that could be done when animals are
neglected, and abused like this! he also has his puppies on tie-outs, and calls it "tie-out training" !! ANYWAY,
I always am thrilled when Ii see people that actually deserve the animals they have!!! thanks, Kimberly XXXX Lyons, Kentucky
******************
Hello, I have been admiring your brindle puppies and was wondering about the pricing? I would also probably have to have them flown to the nearest airport because I believe you are quite a distance from me. I seem to remember somewhere that you were. At this time I have not decided about female or male so please let me know about both. I'm am not looking for show dogs. I do want the dog to be correct and to standard but it will be just a member of the family not going to shows. I live in MA and the nearest airports are in Hartford CT and Boston MA. If you are within a few hours travel I would like to come see them, but I do believe you are many states away and with a 5 year old travel at this time is too much. We currently have a Newfoundland dog which is a gentle loving bear and gets along with anything. Does the Great Danes have the same
temperament, or would it have problems with another dog? Thanks for all your time and thanks for having me on your email. I love the pictures and your site is
great Sincerely; Wesley and Linda, Mass.
