Expertise

I have a great love for this breed, and although this is an "expert" forum, no one person can be an expert in all issues in any breed. It takes a lifetime of learning, with new information becoming current and relevant often. I am happy to share the knowledge that I have, and if I cannot answer your question I will be happy to do research and ask peers in the breed for their knowledge and advice. I can answer questions on temperament, health, training, breeding issues, genetic issues. I will not answer questions about how to breed your pet and add to the pet population. I am a firm believer that the experts in the breed should breed, and families should enjoy their dogs from reputable breeders.

Experience in the area

**NOTE**Please do not ask me questions about breeding your Great Dane, as I will not answer these types of questions and they will be rejected. If you do not know what you are doing, your dogs do not compete in AKC sanctioned events, are not health tested and do not conform to the standard I will not answer your questions.
