I'm Sharon H., the breeder behind Hladik Great Danes located in Columbia, NJ. Our program was built with care and intention in every step. We are passionate about the health and wellbeing of this breed, and we want our program to be an example of how to responsibly breed high-quality, healthy dogs.
Q. & A. with Sharon
Why did you start breeding?
I started showing in the 1980s and didn’t start breeding until the 1990s. I got into showing because there was a puppy that I wanted that was show quality and the breeder would only let him go if he was shown. I was bitten by the bug, and the rest is history
What makes your program special?
Most of my puppies go to Pet homes so temperament is very important to me. I am available 24 seven to my Puppy buyers.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and a kennel on my property.
Matched dogs
