Meet the breeder
I'm Kayla A., the breeder behind Country Danes located in Latrobe, PA. We are a small hobby breeder of AKC registered Great Danes. We breed for conformation, health, temperament, and longevity.
Q. & A. with Kayla
Why did you start breeding?
I fell in love with the breed when I was a young child. When I lived on my own, I got my first dane, and he was from a horrible breeder and had many health issues. From then on I started learning more about breeding and what all was involved before I even bought my first stud dog.What makes your program special?
Since I raise all my dogs and puppies at home, I am able to give them the attention and care that they need to develop. I know that in order to make great family pets, the puppies must first be treated like family pets. Our puppies will only be sold to homes where they will live indoors and be treated like family members.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
