Each of my puppies are well-loved and cared for. I love Great Danes with a passion and have raised them for several years. My pups will be fed only with the best food and will have their vaccines, paperwork, and veterinary checkups. I want to insure that my pups are going to good homes that will love and cherish these dogs as I have.
The current litter of puppies will be due at the end of February 2024! Click on the button below to meet the previous liter and contact me for more info!
About my Danes
Hello there! My name is Karen Akiens. I am located in Plantersville, Texas, and I have been raising, training, and breeding Great Danes for over twenty years. These beautiful creatures are both incredible protectors and best friends that will always have your back. They have been bred for centuries for hunting large animals and for protection. On top of this they have a gentle and loving spirit which makes them a perfect family companion. If you’re interested in learning more about great Danes follow this link.
When I have a litter of puppies I personally put in the time and love when raising them and they, and their mother, receive the highest quality food and care. These dogs are my family and their health and care are of utmost importance to me. I will only allow my puppies to be purchased by those I believe will care for and love them as a member of their family. Great Danes are a big part of my family and it shows if you ever come to visit my kennel.
Great Danes are susceptible to genetic illnesses which is why I have each of my breeding sires and dams thoroughly DNA tested for the common variants that Great Danes may carry, along with over 200 other variants just to make sure nothing is in the mix that would affect a puppy’s DNA health. I will not breed any Sire or Dam whose DNA tests come back faulty. This dedication ensures healthy pups and this is why I offer a strong two-year genetic health guarantee for each puppy I allow to be purchased by a new family.
Each puppy will come with the following:
AKC (limited) registration
Two-year genetic health guarantee
Microchip
Vaccination
Deworming
AKC Puppy kit
Contract for return of puppy you purchase if a new home needs to be found
If you wish to reserve a puppy from a current litter or an upcoming litter (such as reserving a male/female puppy of a specific color or just a male/female puppy you choose), then we require a small deposit of Five Hundred Dollars ($500) to be paid. This deposit will go towards the purchase price of the puppy and it shows that you are serious in regards to purchasing a puppy. Also with this deposit you are taking this puppy (or potential puppy off the market). With this deposit, you are assured that you will receive that puppy when the puppy attains eight (8) weeks of age. The puppies will be ready to go to their new home when they are two months old. Before that time they will be learning social skills from play time with their litter mates and discipline from their mother. They will also be receiving beginning potty training and skills on how to interact with multiple different personalities in people.
Meet my Danes!
I plan to breed my fur babies and share the joy of having them with anyone interested in owning a great dane. The harlequin female and male black Dane have finished breeding for their second litter and their puppies were born on February 24, 2024. You will be able to see them on the puppy page.
Next in line will be the blue Danes, specifically Lucy and Mando. I will not be breeding my other blue baby, Karma, because even though she passed her genetic tests she recently went through a false pregnancy and as a result developed cysts in some of her nipples. These cysts could become cancerous if she becomes pregnant so we have decided to spay her after she turns two years old and matures. She will forever be our personal cuddle bug. The other blue babies, Mando and Lucy, have passed their DNA health tests so after they attain two (2) years of age we will be looking to breed them. I’m very excited to meet the adorable mini blues. These current blue puppies won’t be ready to breed until the end of 2024. I’m waiting for them to fully mature.
