Our breeding program goal is to create exceptional examples of the Great Dane breed with both health and temperament being our number one priority. With this litter, we are expecting to produce puppies capable of providing assistance work through service dog training and therapy dog training. This requires a very intuitive, confident, and gentle nature and we strongly feel that both the Dam and Sire exhibit these qualities. Puppies temperaments are assessed at 7 weeks old and matched to their forever home based on the objective of the adopter- Service work, Therapy Work, Show Home/Breeder, or wonderful loving family dog.

Puppy Rearing methods
By Laura M. Trumpold, CPDT
FOr Exceptional Adult Dogs
Our puppies are raised in our family home and training headquarters in sunny Brooksville, FL; ensuring the early socialization exposure that is critical to creating a confident adult dog. We expose them to children, cats, adult men and women, several other adult dogs on our property, along with small animals such as our farmstead chickens, turkeys, and rabbits. We live in a beautifully wooded rural area, so we also make it a point to take several short “field trips” to visit with the sights, sounds, and smells of a more urban setting with cars, traffic, and people creating several impactful positive experiences around new things.
Early Neurological Stimulation (ENS) Tactical Stimulation
From research done by the U.S. Military Canine Program, we know that the period of time between day 3 through 16 is the most crucial window of time for the rapid neurological growth and development in puppies, and therefore is of great importance to the individual.
Documented Benefits of Early Neurological Stimulation (ENS):
Improved cardio vascular performance
Stronger heart beats
Stronger adrenal glands
More tolerance to stress
Greater resistance to disease
Starting on day 5, we perform these neurological stimulation for all of my puppies. We follow the Bio Sensor Workout, which includes the following 5 exercises for 3-5 seconds. These exercises will produce neurological stimulation, none of which naturally occur at this early stage in the puppy's life.
ENS Workout:
Tactical stimulation (between toes)
Head held erect
Head pointed down
Supine Position (on back)
Thermal stimulation
Puppy Socialization: From day 16 until the day the puppy goes home, I begin working daily on socialization skills by following the Puppy Culture Method with all of our puppies. I strive to raise puppies that are well adjusted and exposed to as many situations and environmental enrichment opportunities as possible. The puppies are “loved on” by people of all ages. We introduce all of our puppies to our dogs, cats, and other animals. I constantly add different obstacles and things to explore in their environment during this phase. This encourages the puppies to challenge themselves and build confidence. You can find more information about ENS and Puppy Culture by following the links below.
PUPPY CULTURE A scientific system created by experts in the field with a very specific timeline to introduce different exercises to enhance cardiac function, the immune system, the adrenaline system, the prevention of behavioral problems, and much more. This system is considered to be the gold standard in puppy raising.
At 7 weeks old, we use The Volhard “Puppy Aptitude Test or “PAT”. The Volhard Test was created by Joachim and Wendy Volhard as a way to test behavioral tendencies and predict what a puppy will be like as an adult also commonly called a “Puppy Temperament Test” or “Puppy Personality Test”. This helps guide us to a more perfect match between the puppy and their new family.
Volhard Puppy Aptitude Test (PAT) At 49 Days, a PAT will be administered by a professional dog trainer to access each puppy’s temperament which will allow us to match them more perfectly with their new owners.
