I'm Jennifer G., the breeder behind Grays Danes located in Fort Atkinson, WI. We’re so excited to be able to help families experience the longtime loyalty of welcoming a new puppy into their lives! We are Dane lovers through and through! Our pups are such an important part of our lives, and we can’t imagine being without them. It’s an amazing experience as breeders to provide others with puppies that we know will bring them the same joy!
Q. & A. with Jennifer
Why did you start breeding?
Danes have been a part of our lives for the past 25+ years. Our decision to start Grays Danes came from the desire to have a positive impact on the breed we loved so much. We strive to offer family companions who are sound in both body and mind.
What makes your program special?
Our goal is to breed healthy, stable, well tempered companions that represent all the characteristics of their breed. Sweet, gentle, loyal, playful and confident.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Parent health testing
Breeder-Reported Testing
Great level
Grays Danes reports to performing the health tests below on their breeding dogs. Ask your breeder about the tests performed on the parents of your litter. Learn more about health testing for Great Danes.
Hip Dysplasia
Hip testing reduces the chance of passing down hip dysplasia, which is primarily found in large breed dogs and can cause hip pain and the eventual loss of the function of the hip joint.
Elbow Dysplasia Finals (OFA, BVA, SV, FCI)
Elbow testing reduces the chance of passing down elbow dysplasia, which is primarily found in large breed dogs and can cause arthritis in the elbow joint and front leg lameness.
Cardiac Evaluation (registered with OFA)
Heart testing reduces the chance of passing down congenital heart disease, which can cause a range of symptoms ranging from trouble exercising to heart failure.
Health testing is one key piece of responsible breeding and is performed on breeding dogs to prevent the presence of heritable conditions in their puppies.
