Meet the breeder
I'm Dahlia C., the breeder behind Gigantes de Cervantes located in Salem, OR. We have 2 female danes in our program. They both live with us, in our home. We breed to maintain strong lines within breed standards. But above all, we care immensely on breeding proper Dane temperament. All our pups will go home trained with Early Scent Introduction (ESI), Early Neurological Stimulation (ENS), and kennel training. This will help ensure the best opportunity to have a well tempered, intelligent, quick learning pup. It also insures our pups have the BEST possible start to life with us and beyond.

About Magnolia
HI! My name is Magnolia or Maggie for short. I am a tall, hefty girl at 34" to the withers. Full euro by pedigree. I am allll cuddles and loves. I like to lay next to my human while she reads or watches a tv show. I will go on the occasional walk around the block but I'm more of what you would call a couch potato. I do however, like to get out of the home if we are going to the park, to the store or out on dinner dates. Mainly because I adore meeting new people and getting all the attention. I love to lay down and have my tiny humans lay on my chest or belly while they watch a movie. I sleep on my bed in one of their rooms every night. I love being close to them. My house has 2 small children, 2 cats, and 2 other dogs. I guess 2 is kind of our number.

About Arya
Hi all! My name is Arya, I am 31" to the withers. I like to stay active with my humans, jogs, hikes, parks. You name it, I'm your girl. Although when I get home, I am known to take a short nap... what's 3-5 hrs.? not long at all. Right?? One of my favorite things is my tiny humans. I love to get loves from them. In our house we have 2 small children, 2 cats and 2 dogs. we all get along well. The cats and I stay in our own lane, for the most part. I have the couch, and they have their perch. and we don't bother each other. My mom says I'm sooo easy going. I do tend to have more energy than my house sister (magnolia) and need my daily walk.
Good health testing
Elbow Dysplasia Prelims (registered with OFA), Hip Dysplasia Finals (OFA, PennHIP, BVA, SV, FCI).

Our experience with Dahlia from Gigantes de Cervantes was great! Process was smooth and communication was excellent. Our puppy was well socialized and healthy. Our puppy has an amazing gentle temperament and we couldn't be more pleased. We loved the reassurance that all her dogs are health tested and appreciated all the information we were given throughout the process of bringing our puppy home. I wouldn't hesitate to get a puppy from them. Excellent Breeder!

Adopting my dog from Dahlia was an absolutely wonderful experience from start to finish. She was incredibly kind, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about her dogs. Dahlia took the time to answer all of my questions, kept me updated throughout the process, and made sure I felt completely confident and prepared bringing my puppy home. It’s clear how much care and love she puts into raising her dogs—they are well-socialized, healthy, and so loved. Dahlia truly goes above and beyond to make sure her puppies go to the best homes, and that level of dedication really shows. I couldn’t have asked for a better breeder or a better experience. I’m so grateful to have adopted my dog through her and would highly recommend Dahlia to anyone looking for a responsible, compassionate breeder.

Working with Dahlia from Gigantes de Cervantes was absolutely amazing. She really cares for the puppies and the families they go home to. Our puppy has the absolute sweetest and best temperment and behavior. She blended seamlessly into our household, even with little kids and cats. We got regular updates and the cutest pictures of our puppy. We even got to join in on live videos of our puppy along with the whole litter. Dahlia was available any time we had any questions during our wait time and even after we brought our puppy home. She's very knowledgeable and helpful with everything. Just an amazing experience overall. I highly recommend Gigantes De Cervantes. And we will be coming back when we're ready for our next four legged family member!

+6Working with Dahlia from Gigantes de Cervantes was a great experience. From day one the communication was quick and easy. I loved being able to see not only my puppy grow but her litter mates via weekly photos, videos, and lives. You can see the love and care these babies and mommas receive. She shared her knowledge as well. I appreciated receiving food options and a diagram on how to slowly transition the food. When it was time to pick up my bundle of joy, Dahlia provided a cute little travel gift bag of goodies. But what was so thoughtful was potty pads and wipes in case we needed to stop for a potty break. Our babies would be protected. When the time comes to add another (no time soon I now have 3!) I will head her way.
