Meet the breeder
I'm Janet T., the breeder behind Taylor's Tails of Joy located in Allendale, MI. My focus is on maintaining the Great Dane breed standard by raising structurally sound and correct puppies with excellent temperaments. I love being a breeder. It's so fulfilling to have the opportunity to create companionship and love and to see the positive effect that a beloved, furry companion can have on its family. Puppies are raised using Puppy Culture protocols.
