SOOOOOOO...
I never got her fixed because I had heard sooo many things about fixing a dog. I know about over population so please save your breath on trying to tell me how awful I am for planning on breeding her. I wont try and convince you that you are wrong so please dont try and convince me of your point of view. I love her and would NEVER EVER do anything to harm her! So when people told me about all the awful thing that could happen to her if I didnt fix her.. I thought about the wild.. and if they can live long lives then so can my Layla.
Yet... I dont take breeding lightly. I would never harm Layla. So what if something where to happen?? and sense I love dogs how will I let them go when ready? how can I make sure they go to the right family?? and the list goes on.
I got layla from a breeder. So she comes from a great background. I got her tested for all health issues 2 months ago including having her hips x- ray. All checks out. not only does health check out but she is the sweetest baby girl I know. She loves us all and she protects us all. Aubry (my sister) cant sleep with out her.. Nina (my handicap sister) relies on her as a constant companion. I know that her pups will have a personality of their own but I know that they will have the same love for their humans as Layla has for us.
I talked to Juan and we discussed the pros and cones and at the end I asked myself if it was worth it... to which Juan responded " When you have your child will you fill fulfilled?" Me: "Yes" Juan: "then shouldnt she get to feel that once?" ... Wise man.
So after much thought (trust me ALOT of thought) I decided that we will be having pups by December for Christmas!!!
So those of you coming from my post interested in Great Dane pups Hello! I know this was so unconventional but when I started posting I realized that I had so much to post about this big decision and adventure that KSL was just not enough room for me. Now that you know a Little about Layla Mae and why I have decided to breed her, I am looking for interested people willing to let a loving giant come and spice up their family.Why am I doing this so soon?? Well I want each family to have time to talk it over and come to a decision together. I want each family to have the opportunity to be involved in the process of getting to know their new family member. My grandmas dog had a liter and I tried something new with her pups. I found families before the pups were born and sent them pictures of the mother as her belly grew and of the ultrasound when it came around. I sent weekly pictures of the pups as they each grew. I saw a great success because each family grew attached to their new family member way before they had them home. Both dogs are still in that home because of that bond.
Some might find this silly and funny. sometimes I think so myself. But dogs are not easy. Great Danes are most certainly not easy. I want each family to bond with their pup, and it was such a fun experiences for the kids! so i want to try that again. Therefor I must start early so that each family can start their bond. :)
411 on great danes:
I must worn you... Great Danes are amazing, but they are work. They eat ALOT and they go to the bathroom ALOT. I want to make sure that each family knows what they are getting into. Please talk to your kids about responsibility before deciding on a dog. Poop must be cleaned, dog must be feed and brushed, dog needs attention and love( not just when they are pups). Training a Dane was easy! (easier then my 5 lbs poodle) but you must start right way!! I trained Layla as a service dog. So I am willing to help you make your pup a permanent member free of charge ( I want what is best I promise) I will spend time training each one and I will help each family train their pup for a month, but its up to each family to continue that training. The walking, the potty training, the barking, socializing.
Please be aware of the commitment you all will be making.
That being said, you will not find a better dog. I love my dane. people ask about her taking up space.. but she is so mellow that I only notice her when people come to visit and she gets happy. Danes are friendly, loving and mellow. They protect their family when they sense danger but Layla except anyone that I except.
If this sounds like something you are interested in you can text me at 801-787-0047 or leave a comment with your email and I will get back to you! I am expecting no less then 5 but most likely 7-9 pups. This will be first comes first serves bases. I am asking for a 150 deposit to hold your pup, but I wont take deposits tell i have done the ultrasound. But please still contact me if you would like to be a part of this so I can put you on the list. And we can start preparing.
If you would like to get to know Layla Mae more I post about her very often. So feel free to read past posts on her.
