Judge Paula Nykeil

Mrs. Nykeil was wondering why she didn't win breed!!  Thank you Ms. Nykeil for such kind words about our puppy.  Thanks to all the folks that waited around so late to see Danni in Best Puppy.  She came up just short.  Elizabeth and I were honored to have so many folks meet her on the bench and then cheer for her when she went out for that final exam.

This picture is just 7 days removed from Danni being at UC Davis.  You can see her shaved patches on her legs.  She won her first major the next day under respected Judge Robert Ennis.  Unfortunately, that picture did not turn out.  Thank you Cathy and Mr. Ennis for seeing through to our on-the-mend puppy!!

It was the day of the pigeons!!  Danni was semi-distracted by the flying stuffies in the showring ring.  Still, for a 9-month old puppy, she showed great!

Danni does not miss a step.  She has continued to have nice reach and drives just beautiful from the rear.

Is there anything more breath taking than a well bred Great Dane?  We think not.
